Black hole astrometric binaries in the Roman Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey
Casey Y. Lam, Jessica R. Lu, Kareem El-Badry +6
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman), NASA's next flagship mission, is currently scheduled to launch in August 2026. As part of its mission, Roman will conduct the Galacti…
Spectroscopic follow-up of compact object binary candidates from Gaia DR3: White dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, and the parallax zeropoint
Kareem El-Badry, David W. Latham, Hans-Walter Rix +12
Astrometry and radial velocities (RVs) from Gaia DR3 yielded orbits for hundreds of thousands of binary systems, including several samples proposed to contain black holes (BHs), ne…
Lithium as a Signpost for Compact Object Binary Candidates in the LAMOST Medium Resolution Survey
Yang Shen, Joshua D. Simon, Kareem El-Badry +1
Binary systems with black hole or neutron star companions are often associated with lithium enhancement. Gaia NS1, a recently discovered neutron-star binary with a lithium-enhanced…
Radial Velocity Orbital Solutions for Candidate Black Hole and Neutron Star Binary Systems in the Gaia Data Release 3 Catalog
Joshua D. Simon, Casey Y. Lam, Kareem El-Badry +8
We present spectroscopic followup observations of binary systems from the Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3) binary catalog that were selected to have large enough mass functions for their…
A search for black holes with metal-poor stellar companions: I. Survey sample selection and single epoch radial velocity follow-up
Casey Y. Lam, Joshua D. Simon, Kareem El-Badry +3
Stellar-mass black holes (BHs) above are predicted to form from low-metallicity progenitors, but direct detections of such systems in the Milky Way remain scarce. Moti…
A Spectroscopic Search for Dormant Black Holes in Low-Metallicity Binaries
Pranav Nagarajan, Kareem El-Badry, Henrique Reggiani +9
The discovery of the massive black hole (BH) system Gaia BH3 in pre-release Gaia DR4 data suggests that wide BH binaries with luminous companions may be significantly overrepresent…
A Fast, Analytic Empirical Model of the Gaia Data Release 3 Astrometric Orbit Catalog Selection Function
Casey Y. Lam, Kareem El-Badry, Joshua D. Simon
In June 2022, the Gaia mission released a catalog of astrometric orbital solutions for 168,065 binary systems, by far the largest such catalog to date. The catalog's selection func…
HIP 8522: A Puzzling Young Solar Twin with the Lowest Detected Lithium
Jhon Yana Galarza, Diego Lorenzo-Oliveira, Thiago Ferreira +8
We present HIP 8522, a young solar twin with the lowest detected lithium, potentially a field blue straggler or the result of episodic early accretion. Its stellar parameters ($T_{…
