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…
Forming Young and Hypervelocity Stars in the Galactic Centre via Tidal Disruption of a Molecular Cloud
A. Generozov, S. Nayakshin, A. M. Madigan
The Milky Way Galaxy hosts a four million solar mass black hole, Sgr A*, that underwent a major accretion episode approximately 3-6 Myr ago. During the episode, hundreds of young m…
A Lopsided Outer Solar System
Alexander Zderic, Maria Tiongco, Angela Collier +3
Axisymmetric disks of eccentric orbits in near-Keplerian potentials are unstable to an out-of-plane buckling. Recently, Zderic et al. (2020) showed that an idealized disk saturates…
