We derive accurate fundamental parameters and the distance to these massive systems, which comprise of OIf+, WR and O-type stars. Our goal is to increase the sample of well-studied WR stars and constrain their physics by comparison with evolutionary models.}, language = {en} } @article{NajarrodelaFuenteGeballeetal.2015, author = {Najarro, F. and de la Fuente, D. and Geballe, T.

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.}, language = {en} }
