The proper motion of HV2112: A TŻO candidate in the SMC
C. Clare Worley, Mike. J. Irwin, Christopher A. Tout +3
The candidate Thorne-Żytkow object (TŻO), HV2112, is becoming a well-studied if enigmatic object. A key point of its candidacy as a TŻO is whether or not it resides in the Small Ma…
Discovery of a Thorne-Zytkow object candidate in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Emily M. Levesque, Philip Massey, Anna N. Zytkow +1
Thorne-Zytkow objects (TZOs) are a theoretical class of star in which a compact neutron star is surrounded by a large, diffuse envelope. Supergiant TZOs are predicted to be almost…
Quasi-stars, giants and the Schönberg-Chandrasekhar limit
Warrick H. Ball, Christopher A. Tout, Anna N. Żytkow
The Schönberg-Chandrasekhar (SC) limit is a well-established result in the understanding of stellar evolution. It provides an estimate of the point at which an evolved isothermal c…
