Southern massive stars at high angular resolution: WR 25 is a massive hierarchical triple system

K. Deshmukh, L. Mahy, H. Sana +6

WR 25 is a massive colliding-wind binary in the Carina nebula comprising a WN6ha primary with an O5 companion in an eccentric 208-d orbit. Recent spectroscopic analysis estimates t…

Gaia DR3 high radial velocity stars: Genuine fast-moving objects or outliers?

D. Katz, A. Gómez, E. Caffau +39

The third Gaia data release includes 33.8 million radial velocity measurements, extending to a magnitude of G_RVS = 14. To reach this magnitude limit, spectra were processed down t…

Investigating 39 Galactic Wolf-Rayet stars with VLTI/GRAVITY: Uncovering A Long Period Binary Desert

K. Deshmukh, H. Sana, A. Mérand +16

Wolf-Rayet stars (WRs) are one of the final evolutionary stages of massive stars and immediate progenitors of stellar-mass black holes. Their multiplicity forms an important anchor…

Gaia Data Release 3: spectroscopic binary-star orbital solutions. The SB1 processing chain

E. Gosset, Y. Damerdji, T. Morel +7

Gaia is an astrometric space experiment that is measuring positions, proper motions as well as parallaxes for a huge number of stars. It operates a medium-dispersion spectrometer,…

Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry

Gaia Collaboration, P. Panuzzo, T. Mazeh +412

Gravitational waves from black-hole merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected base…

Gaia Focused Product Release: A catalogue of sources around quasars to search for strongly lensed quasars

Gaia Collaboration, A. Krone-Martins, C. Ducourant +398

Context. Strongly lensed quasars are fundamental sources for cosmology. The Gaia space mission covers the entire sky with the unprecedented resolution of " in the optical, ma…
