A proto-helium white dwarf stripped by a substellar companion via common-envelope ejection -- Uncovering the true nature of a candidate hypervelocity B-type star

Andreas Irrgang, Stephan Geier, Ulrich Heber +3

In the past, SDSS J160429.12+100002.2 was spectroscopically classified as a blue horizontal branch (BHB) star. Assuming a luminosity that is characteristic of BHB stars, the object…

GW190425: Observation of a Compact Binary Coalescence with Total Mass

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1199

On 2019 April 25, the LIGO Livingston detector observed a compact binary coalescence with signal-to-noise ratio 12.9. The Virgo detector was also taking data that did not contribut…
