Hide and Seek with Gaia. Detectability of Predicted Thin-Disc Metal-Rich RR Lyrae Binaries in Gaia DR3 and DR4
Giuliano Iorio, Pranav Nagarajan, Alexey Bobrick +8
RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) are classical tracers of old stellar populations, yet growing evidence suggests the presence of a metal-rich ([Fe/H]>-0.5), intermediate-age (2-7 Gyr) sub-pop…

Investigating black hole accretion disks as potential polluter sources for the formation of enriched stars in globular clusters
Laurane Fréour, Alice Zocchi, Glenn van de Ven +1
Accretion disks surrounding stellar mass black holes (BHs) have been suggested as potential locations for the nucleosynthesis of light elements, which are our primary observational…
