Constraints on the origins of hypervelocity stars: velocity distribution, mergers and star-formation history
Aleksey Generozov, Hagai B. Perets
In recent years surveys have identified several dozen B stars in the Milky Way halo moving faster than the local escape speed. The origin of most of these hypervelocity stars (HVSs…

Spatially Resolved X-ray Study of Supernova Remnant G306.30.9 with Unusually High Calcium Abundance
Jianbin Weng, Ping Zhou, Yang Chen +6
G306.30.9 is an asymmetric Galactic supernova remnant (SNR), whose progenitor has been thought to be a Type Ia supernova (SN), but its high Ca abundance appears inconsistent wit…

Thermonuclear explosion of a massive hybrid HeCO white-dwarf triggered by a He-detonation on a companion
Ruediger Pakmor, Yossef Zenati, Hagai B. Perets +1
Normal type Ia supernovae (SNe) are thought to arise from the thermonuclear explosion of massive ( M) carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (WDs), although the exact mechanism i…
