On the H\(\alpha\) Behaviour of Blue Supergiants: Rise and Fall over the Bi-stability Jump

The evolutionary state of blue supergiants is still unknown. Stellar wind mass loss is one of the dominant processes determining the evolution of massive stars, and it may provide clues on the evolutionary properties of blue supergiants. As the H\(\alpha\) line is the most oft-used mass-loss tracer...
