Precise and Accurate Mass and Radius Measurements of Thirty Galactic Metal-Poor Stars in Detached Eclipsing Binaries
D. M. Rowan, K. Z. Stanek, C. S. Kochanek +4
Detached eclipsing binaries have long served as fundamental benchmarks for making direct comparisons with stellar models. By combining the light curve and radial velocity orbit of…
Conspicuous Gas, Cryptic Dust: Spectroscopy and Chromaticity of Complex Periodic Variables
Luke G. Bouma, Facundo Perez Paolino, Lynne A. Hillenbrand +17
Complex periodic variables (CPVs) are young low-mass stars whose light curves show periodic dips indicative of transiting corotating material. The origin and composition of this ma…
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…
PANTERA. I. Hunting for the Most Metal-Rich Stars in the Solar Neighborhood with High-Resolution Spectroscopy
Serat M. Saad, D. M. Rowan, K. Z. Stanek +4
We present PANTERA (Project for Astrophysical Nucleosynthesis and Targeted Exploration of metal-Rich Abundances), a high-resolution spectroscopic survey of the most metal-rich star…
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…
