Notes. The stars listed in the second part of the table were not observed with ZIMPOL due to their faint magnitude in the R band. (a)The R magnitudes were obtained from the USNO-B catalog (Monet et al. 2003). (b)These angular diameters were derived from the bolometric luminosity, effective temperature and distance (Decin et al. 2020). (c)These angular diameters were derived using the magnitude-color relation of van Belle et al. (1999). (d)Mass-loss rates from references (5)–(10) and (12) are derived from the 1D modeling of their CO rotational line emission. For VX Sgr, in (17), the authors model the thermal emission from dust from the optical to the far-infrared, and assume a gas-to-dust ratio of 200 from the litterature. (18) compiles various mass-loss diagnostics of VX Sgr: H2O and OH maser emissions, infrared excess, and mid- and far-infrared photometry and imaging.
