Eppur binaria non è esclusa: Pulsations in CZ Tuc appear to be tidally excited by its veiled companion

Piotr A. Kołaczek-Szymański, Patryk Iwanek, Jim Fuller +3

Long secondary periods (LSPs), observed in about one-third of pulsating red giants, remain unexplained despite decades of study, with binarity and non-radial oscillations as the le…

Joint dynamical-geophysical evidence for a limit cycle in the Galilean moons

Amirhossein Bagheri, Steven Vance, Jim Fuller +5

Io, Europa, and Ganymede orbit in the Laplace mean-motion resonance, where their orbital and thermochemical evolution are strongly coupled [1-5]. Forced eccentricities sustain tida…

A rotating white dwarf shows different compositions on its opposite faces

Ilaria Caiazzo, Kevin B. Burdge, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay +35

White dwarfs, the extremely dense remnants left behind by most stars after their death, are characterised by a mass comparable to that of the Sun compressed into the size of an Ear…

The fastest stars in the Galaxy

Kareem El-Badry, Ken J. Shen, Vedant Chandra +18

We report a spectroscopic search for hypervelocity white dwarfs (WDs) that are runaways from Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and related thermonuclear explosions. Candidates are select…

A close-in giant planet escapes engulfment by its star

Marc Hon, Daniel Huber, Nicholas Z. Rui +39

When main-sequence stars expand into red giants, they are expected to engulf close-in planets. Until now, the absence of planets with short orbital periods around post-expansion, c…

Connecting the Young Pulsars in Milky Way Globular Clusters with White Dwarf Mergers and the M81 Fast Radio Burst

Kyle Kremer, Jim Fuller, Anthony L. Piro +1

The detections of four apparently young radio pulsars in the Milky Way globular clusters are difficult to reconcile with standard neutron star formation scenarios associated with m…
