Runaway OB stars within 1 kpc of the Sun
Juan Martinez Garcia, Nicholas Wright, Alexis Quintana
The authors calculate runaway probabilities for O‑ and B‑type stars within 1 kpc of the Sun by fitting a Galactic rotation model to proper motions and applying velocity‑threshold c…
Unveiling the Milky Way with a Gaia DR3 census of OB-type stars within 2 kpc. I. Tracing local Galactic structure, massive star-forming regions and core-collapse supernova progenitors
Alexis L. Quintana, Kiril Maltsev, Eloisa Poggio +10
O- and B-type stars are young and hot, thereby serving as vital tracers of the star formation and spiral arm structure of the Milky Way. At the dusk of the \textit{Gaia} DR3 era, a…
A new Gaia census of OB associations within 1 kpc
Alexis L. Quintana, Nicholas J. Wright, Lilly A. Kormann +6
OB associations are primordial tracers of star formation and Galactic structure. Originally defined about 80 years ago, their historical membership lists have been superseded thank…
How many stars form in compact clusters in the local Milky Way?
Alexis L. Quintana, Emily L. Hunt, Hanna Parul
Two main models coexist for the environment in which stars form. The clustered model stipulates that the bulk of star formation occurs within dense embedded clusters, but only a mi…
Quantifying the scale of star formation across the Perseus spiral arm using young clusters around Cas OB5
Alexis L. Quintana, Ignacio Negueruela, Sara R. Berlanas
Cas OB5 is an OB association located at a distance of 2.5-3 kpc that intercepts the Perseus spiral arm. It carries a moderate amount of reddening ( 2-3 mag) and contains…
A census of OB stars within 1 kpc and the star formation and core collapse supernova rates of the Milky Way
Alexis L. Quintana, Nicholas J. Wright, Juan MartÃnez GarcÃa
OB stars are crucial for our understanding of Galactic structure, star formation, stellar feedback and multiplicity. In this paper we have compiled a census of all OB stars within…
