Gaia DR3 high radial velocity stars: Genuine fast-moving objects or outliers?

D. Katz, A. Gómez, E. Caffau +39

The third Gaia data release includes 33.8 million radial velocity measurements, extending to a magnitude of G_RVS = 14. To reach this magnitude limit, spectra were processed down t…

A high fraction of close massive binary stars at low metallicity

H. Sana, T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner +74

At high metallicity, a majority of massive stars have at least one close stellar companion. The evolution of such binaries is subject to strong interaction processes, heavily impac…

Evidence for synchronisation of Gaia eclipsing binaries from their stellar rotational velocity

E. Hadad, T. Mazeh, S. Faigler

The Gaia DR3 catalogue includes line-broadening (vbroad) measurements for 10,387 eclipsing binaries. In this study, we focus on a subset of 977 short-period main-sequence systems w…

Gaia vbroad. Spectral-line Broadening, and binarity

E. Hadad, T. Mazeh, S. Faigler +1

The Gaia DR3 catalogue includes line-broadening measurements (vbroad) for 3524677 stars. We concentrate here on the low-mass main-sequence sub-sample of the catalogue, with BP-RP i…

The 33 M black hole Gaia BH3 is part of the disrupted ED-2 star cluster

E. Balbinot, E. Dodd, T. Matsuno +19

The Gaia Collaboration has recently reported the detection of a 33 M black hole in a wide binary system located in the Solar neighbourhood. Here we explore the relationship…

Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry

Gaia Collaboration, P. Panuzzo, T. Mazeh +412

Gravitational waves from black-hole merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected base…
