Title: Binary interaction dominates the evolution of massive stars

Because star cluster dynamics and stellar evolution could have affected the multiplicity properties of only very few of the young O stars in our sample (see supporting online material §A.2), our derived distributions are a good representation of the binary properties at birth. Thus it is safe to con ...
