Abstract

We present results from a recent study of the spin rate properties of a sample of more than 400 Galactic O-type stars surveyed by the IACOB and OWN projects. We combine vsini, Teff, and logg estimates with information about the spectroscopic binarity status for 285 of the stars in the sample, and provide a renewed overview about how the empirical distribution of projected rotational velocities in the O-star domain depends on mass, evolutionary and binary status. The obtained distributions are then compared with predictions of state-of-the-art population synthesis simulations including binary interaction, and used to provide hints about the initial velocity distribution of stars with masses in the range 15-80 M⊙.
