  abstract  = {We highlight the basic physics that allows fundamental parameters, such as the effective temperature, luminosity, abundances, and mass-loss rate, of Wolf-Rayet (W-R) stars to be determined. Since the temperature deduced from the spectrum of a W-R star is an ionization temperature, a detailed discussion of the ionization structure of W-R winds, and how it is set, is given. We also provide an overview of line and continuum formation in W-R stars. Mechanisms that contribute to the strength of different emission lines, such as collisional excitation, radiative recombination, dielectronic recombination, and continuum uorescence, are discussed.},

  abstract  = {The Galactic Center (GC) hosts three of the most massive WR rich, resolved young clusters in the Local Group as well as a large number of apparently isolated massive stars. Therefore, it constitutes a test bed to study the star formation history of the region, to probe a possible top-heavy scenario and to address massive star formation (clusters vs isolation) in such a dense and harsh environment. We present results from our ongoing infrared spectroscopic studies of WRs and other massive stars at the Center of the Milky Way.},

  abstract  = {As part of our ongoing Wolf-Rayet (WR) Magellanic Cloud survey, we have discovered 13 new WRs. However, the most exciting outcome of our survey is not the number of new WRs, but their unique characteristics. Eight of our discoveries appear to belong to an entirely new class of WRs. While one might naively classify these stars as WN3+O3V binaries, such a pairing is unlikely. Preliminary CMFGN modeling suggests physical parameters similar to early-type WNs in the Large Magellanic Cloud except with mass-loss rates three to five times lower and slightly higher temperatures. The evolution status of these stars remains an open question.},
