contents VLT spectroscopy of massive stars in NGC55 F. Bresolin N. Castro C. Trundle M. García A. Herrero Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas We present the first spectroscopy study ofmassive stars in NGC55. The data, takenwith VLT-FORS2 allow us to provide spectralclassification for 200 objects located through-out the galaxy. From this sample, suitableB-type supergiants are chosen for subsequenthigher resolution spectroscopic observationsthat will enable a quantitative study. Thestellar abundances will be a key point in thestudy of galaxy chemical evolution. We alsodiscuss how GTC-OSIRIS can be a valuabletool for similar studies. 2007 artículo científico 0185-1101 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57102952 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=571 Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica (México) Vol.29
