A Unicorn in Monoceros: the dark companion to the bright, nearby red giant V723 Mon is a non-interacting, mass-gap black hole candidate
T. Jayasinghe, K. Z. Stanek, Todd A. Thompson +18
We report the discovery of the closest known black hole candidate as a binary companion to V723 Mon. V723 Mon is a nearby (), bright (~mag), evolved (…
The TRENDS High-contrast Imaging Survey. VIII. Compendium of Benchmark Objects
Erica J. Gonzales, Justin R. Crepp, Eric B. Bechter +5
The physical properties of faint stellar and substellar objects often rely on indirect, model-dependent estimates. For example, the masses of brown dwarfs are usually inferred usin…
An Asymmetric Eclipse Seen Towards the Pre-Main Sequence Binary System V928 Tau
Dirk van Dam, Matthew Kenworthy, Trevor David +21
K2 observations of the weak-lined T Tauri binary V928 Tau A+B show the detection of a single, asymmetric eclipse which may be due to a previously unknown substellar companion eclip…
Very regular high-frequency pulsation modes in young intermediate-mass stars
Timothy R. Bedding, Simon J. Murphy, Daniel R. Hey +33
Asteroseismology is a powerful tool for probing the internal structures of stars by using their natural pulsation frequencies. It relies on identifying sequences of pulsation modes…
Constraints on the binary black hole hypothesis for system LB-1
R. -F. Shen, C. D. Matzner, A. W. Howard +1
At about 70 solar masses, the recently-discovered dark object orbited by a B-type star in the system LB-1 is difficult to understand as the end point of standard stellar evolution,…
A wide star-black-hole binary system from radial-velocity measurements
Jifeng Liu, Haotong Zhang, Andrew W. Howard +52
All stellar mass black holes have hitherto been identified by X-rays emitted by gas that is accreting onto the black hole from a companion star. These systems are all binaries with…
