An upper limit on Galactic OB+black hole binaries from SDSS-V
J. Müller-Horn, H. -W. Rix, S. Shahaf +14
Binaries composed of a luminous OB star and a black hole (BH) are a key evolutionary link between massive stellar binaries and merging compact-object binaries, but only a handful a…
Unveiling the Milky Way with a Gaia DR3 census of OB-type stars within 2 kpc. I. Tracing local Galactic structure, massive star-forming regions and core-collapse supernova progenitors
Alexis L. Quintana, Kiril Maltsev, Eloisa Poggio +10
O- and B-type stars are young and hot, thereby serving as vital tracers of the star formation and spiral arm structure of the Milky Way. At the dusk of the \textit{Gaia} DR3 era, a…
Good things always come in 3s: trimodality in the binary black-hole chirp-mass distribution supports bimodal black-hole formation
Reinhold Willcox, Fabian R. N. Schneider, Eva Laplace +7
The latest GWTC-4 release from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration nearly doubles the known population of double compact object mergers and reveals a new trimodal structure in…
New gravitational-wave data support a bimodal black-hole mass distribution
R. Willcox, F. R. N. Schneider, E. Laplace +7
Detailed stellar evolution and supernova models yield a bimodal black-hole mass distribution with a narrow peak around 10 solar masses from stars within a narrow range of progenito…
Explodability criteria for the neutrino-driven supernova mechanism
K. Maltsev, F. R. N. Schneider, I. Mandel +4
Massive stars undergoing iron core-collapse at the end of their evolution terminate their lives either in successful or failed supernovae (SNe). The physics of core-collapse supern…
Scalable stellar evolution forecasting: Deep learning emulation vs. hierarchical nearest neighbor interpolation
K. Maltsev, F. R. N. Schneider, F. K. Roepke +5
Many astrophysical applications require efficient yet reliable forecasts of stellar evolution tracks. One example is population synthesis, which generates forward predictions of mo…
