Spitzer SAGE Infrared Photometry of Massive Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
We present a catalog of 1750 massive stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud(LMC), with accurate spectral types compiled from the literature, and aphotometric catalog for a subset of 1268 of these stars, with the goalof exploring their infrared properties. The photometric catalog consistsof stars with infrared counterparts in the Spitzer SAGE survey database,for which we present uniform photometry from 0.3 to 24 μm in theUBVIJHKs +IRAC+MIPS24 bands. The resulting infraredcolor-magnitude diagrams illustrate that the supergiant B[e], redsupergiant, and luminous blue variable (LBV) stars are among thebrightest infrared point sources in the LMC, due to their intrinsicbrightness, and at longer wavelengths, due to dust. We detect infraredexcesses due to free-free emission among ~900 OB stars, which correlatewith luminosity class. We confirm the presence of dust around 10supergiant B[e] stars, finding the shape of their spectral energydistributions (SEDs) to be very similar, in contrast to the variety ofSED shapes among the spectrally variable LBVs. The similar luminositiesof B[e] supergiants (log L/L sun >= 4) and the rare, dustyprogenitors of the new class of optical transients (e.g., SN 2008S andNGC 300 OT), plus the fact that dust is present in both types ofobjects, suggests a common origin for them. We find the infrared colorsfor Wolf-Rayet stars to be independent of spectral type and their SEDsto be flatter than what models predict. The results of this studyprovide the first comprehensive roadmap for interpreting luminous,massive, resolved stellar populations in nearby galaxies at infraredwavelengths.

J-type carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
A sample of 1497 carbon stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) hasbeen observed in the red part of the spectrum with the 2dF facility onthe Anglo-Australian Telescope. Of these, 156 have been identified asJ-type (i.e. 13C-rich) carbon stars using a technique whichprovides a clear distinction between J stars and the normal N-typecarbon stars that comprise the bulk of the sample, and yields fewborderline cases. A simple two-dimensional classification of thespectra, based on their spectral slopes in different wavelength regions,has been constructed and found to be related to the more conventional cand j indices, modified to suit the spectral regions observed. Most ofthe J stars form a photometric sequence in the K- (J-K) colour-magnitudediagram, parallel to and 0.6 mag fainter than the N-star sequence. Asubset of the J stars (about 13 per cent) are brighter than this J-starsequence; most of these are spectroscopically different from the other Jstars. The bright J stars have stronger CN bands than the other J starsand are found strongly concentrated in the central regions of the LMC.Most of the rather few stars in common with Hartwick and Cowley's sampleof suspected CH stars are J stars. Overall, the proportion of carbonstars identified as J stars is somewhat lower than has been found in theGalaxy. The Na D lines are weaker in the LMC J stars than in either theGalactic J stars or the LMC N stars, and do not seem to depend ontemperature.

The HIPPARCOS proper motion of the Magellanic Clouds
The proper motion of the Large (LMC) and Small (SMC) Magellanic Cloudusing data acquired with the Hipparcos satellite is presented. Hipparcosmeasured 36 stars in the LMC and 11 stars in the SMC. A correctlyweighted mean of the data yields the presently available most accuratevalues, mu_alpha cos(delta) = 1.94 +/- 0.29 mas/yr, mu_delta = - 0.14+/- 0.36 mas/yr for the LMC. For the SMC, mu_alpha cos(delta) = 1.23 +/-0.84 mas/yr, mu_delta = - 1.21 +/- 0.75 mas/yr is obtained, whereby careis taken to exclude likely tidal motions induced by the LMC. Bothgalaxies are moving approximately parallel to each other on the sky,with the Magellanic Stream trailing behind. The Hipparcos proper motionsare in agreement with previous measurements using PPM catalogue data byKroupa et al. (1994), and by Jones et al. (1994) using backgroundgalaxies in a far-outlying field of the LMC. For the LMC the Hipparcosdata suggest a weak rotation signal in a clockwise direction on the sky.Comparison of the Hipparcos proper motion with the proper motion of thefield used by Jones et al. (1994), which is about 7.3 kpc distant fromthe center of the LMC, also suggests clockwise rotation. Combining thethree independent measurements of the proper motion of the LMC and thetwo independent measurements of the proper motion of the SMC improvesthe estimate of the proper motion of the LMC and SMC. The correspondinggalactocentric space motion vectors are computed. Within theuncertainties, the LMC and SMC are found to be on parallel trajectories.Recent theoretical work concerning the origin of the Magellanic Systemis briefly reviewed, but a unique model of the Magellanic Stream, forthe origin of the Magellanic Clouds, and for the mass distribution inthe Galaxy cannot yet be decided upon. Future astrometric space missionsare necessary to significantly improve our present knowledge of thespace motion of the two most conspicuous galactic neighbours of theMilky Way.

A spectroscopic survey of B supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud
The results of a low-dispersion digital optical spectral survey of about100 B-type supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud are presented. TheMK spectral classification framework for B supergiants has beentransferred to the metal-weak LMC stars, and recommended classificationstandards have been designated. Variations among the metal linestrengths are examined. The most extreme variations are found for thenitrogen lines, for which a range of a factor of 3 or more may be seenin the equivalent widths within some spectral subclasses. It issuggested that these variations indicate a range of nitrogen surfaceabundances among the B supergiants, resulting from contamination of someof the stellar surfaces by processed material from the originalH-burning core.

Gas in and toward the Magellanic Clouds
Attention is given to the Ca II K absorption spectra of 48 early-typesupergiants in the SMC and LMC, with a view to the Clouds' possiblefragmentary nature and the distance of the gas responsible for theabsorption lines at 60 and 120 km/sec. The comparison of the spectraobtained with H I measurements toward the Clouds indicates that in bothClouds, the velocity components in the neutral hydrogen distribution lieat different distances along the line of sight. Good agreement is foundbetween the radial velocity shown in absorbing material and the radialvelocity spread predicted by Murai and Fujimoto's (1980) dynamical modelof the formation of the Magellanic Stream by tidal stripping. It isspeculated that both the SMC and LMC are extended and fragmented alongthe line of sight.

Mass loss in A and B supergiants and the extragalactic distance scale
Samples of B5 and A0 stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)demonstrate the existence of tight correlations between luminosity andequivalent widths in the H-alpha and H-beta lines. The H-alpha line isin emission for stars brighter than M(v) = -7, and this easilyidentifiable feature should be detectable at the distances of nearbygroups of galaxies. The correlations imply that mass loss in A and Bsupergiants is strongly dependent on luminosity and therefore on stellarmass. Similar samples of stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) showssystematically smaller H-alpha emission and more scatter in therelationships between luminosity and H-alpha line strengths than werefound for the LMC stars. There is independent evidence that mass-lossrates are smaller in the SMC than in the LMC, and this fact probablyaccounts for the lower emission at H-alpha in the SMC stars. Thedifferences between the samples in the two clouds may be caused bydifferences in stellar chemical composition.

On the photometric differences between luminous OBA type stars in the LMC with and without P Cygni characteristics
A comparison is presented of the photometric characteristics of O to A0stars of high luminosity in the Large Magellanic Cloud which exhibit ordo not exhibit P Cygni characteristics. VBLUW observations were made of29 OBA stars and 15 OBA stars with P Cygni characteristics (OBA/PC/stars). Examination of the three two-color diagrams in the systemindicates that the OBA(PC) stars are slightly bluer than the OBA stars,which may be explained by a higher luminosity for the OBA(PC) stars at agiven temperature. Computations of the free-free emission from theextended envelopes of OBA(PC) stars show the contribution of suchemission to the spectral energy distribution to be negligible in theabsence of extreme conditions in the shell. Comparison of observed withtheoretical colors reveals the reddening in OBA(PC) stars to be on theaverage 0.07 magnitudes greater than in OBA stars. Results suggest thatOBA supergiants start to exhibit P Cygni characteristics when the massloss rate becomes greater than or equal to 2 x 10 to the -6th solarmass/year.

BVRI-Photometry of the Brightest Stars in the Magellanic Clouds
We have made photometric observations in the BVRI system of 100 objectsthat belong to the Magellanic Clouds. The observational data indicate atleast two remarkable differences between some of the Magellanic Cloudobjects and the supergiant stars in the Galaxy, namely, the former aremore luminous than the most luminous galactic supergiants and they alsohave a color excess in V-R unexplained by interstellar extinction alone.Two possible explanations are likely for the additional color excess;either the presence of a circumstellar dust envelope or a differentchemical atmospheric composition from galactic supergiant stars, orperhaps both of them.
