Origin of a massive hyper-runaway subgiant star LAMOST-HVS1 -- implication from Gaia and follow-up spectroscopy

Kohei Hattori, Monica Valluri, Norberto Castro +3

We report that LAMOST-HVS1 is a massive hyper-runaway subgiant star with mass of 8.3 Msun and super-Solar metallicity, ejected from the inner stellar disk of the Milky Way 3…

Kinematics of Highly R-Process-Enhanced Field Stars: Evidence for an Accretion Origin and Detection of Several Groups from Disrupted Satellites

Ian U. Roederer, Kohei Hattori, Monica Valluri

We present kinematics of 35 highly r-process-enhanced ([Eu/Fe] >= +0.7) metal-poor (-3.8 < [Fe/H] < -1.4) field stars. We calculate six-dimensional positions and velocities, evalua…

Old, Metal-Poor Extreme Velocity Stars in the Solar Neighborhood

Kohei Hattori, Monica Valluri, Eric F. Bell +1

We report the discovery of 30 stars with extreme space velocities ( 480 km/s) in the Gaia-DR2 archive. These stars are a subset of 1743 stars with high-precision parallax, large…

Constraining Solar position and velocity with a Nearby Hypervelocity Star

Kohei Hattori, Monica Valluri, Norberto Castro

Gravitational 3-body interaction among binary stars and the supermassive black hole (SMBH) at the center of the Milky Way occasionally ejects a hypervelocity star (HVS) with a velo…

Metallicity dependence of the Hercules stream in Gaia/RAVE data -- explanation by non-closed orbits

Kohei Hattori, Naoteru Gouda, Taihei Yano +4

The origin of the Hercules stream, the most prominent velocity substructure in the Solar neighbour disc stars, is still under debate. Recent accurate measurements of position, velo…
