The molecular gas around the luminous blue variable star G24.73+0.69

Aims. We study the molecular environment of the luminous blue variable star G24.73+0.69 to investigate the origin of the two infrared shells around this massive star and determine its effects on the surrounding interstellar medium. Methods. We analyze the distribution of the molecular gas using the...

We discover the molecular counterpart to the outer infrared shell around G24.73+0.69. The CO shell was probably blown by the stellar wind of the star mainly during its main sequence phase.

We suggest that both G24.73+0.69 and the progenitor of the nearby supernova remnant G24.7+0.6 were formed from the same natal cloud and represent the most evolved members of a so far undetected cluster of massive stars. © 2012 ESO.
