Masses of the astrometric SB2 ζ Ori A

Abstract

We report the first dynamic mass for an O-type supergiant, the interferometrically resolved SB2 system ζ Ori A (O9.5Ib+B0/1). The separation of the system excludes any previous mass-transfer, ensuring that the derived masses can be compared to single star evolutionary tracks.
