Magellanic Clouds:Wolf-Rayet Stars

Scientific paper

As a result of a thorough search with the ESO GPO astrograph, the number of known Wolf-Rayet stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud has just been doubled (from 4 to 8). Drs. Jacques Breysacher (ESO) and Marc Azzopardi (Observatoire de Toulouse, France) also discovered 17 new WR stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Slit spectra of these stars have been obtained with the 3.6 m telescope and there is an indication of a significant difference between the WR stars in the Clouds and those in our own galaxy.
