Massive black holes regulated by luminous blue variable mass loss and magnetic fields
Jose H. Groh, Eoin Farrell, Georges Meynet +5
We investigate the effects of mass loss during the main-sequence (MS) and post-MS phases of massive star evolution on black hole (BH) birth masses. We compute solar metallicity Gen…
Carbon Chain Depletion of 2I/Borisov
Theodore Kareta, Jennifer Andrews, John W. Noonan +10
The composition of comets in the Solar System come in multiple groups thought to encode information about their formation in different regions of the outer protosolar disk. The rec…
Supernova 2014C: ongoing interaction with extended circumstellar material with silicate dust
Samaporn Tinyanont, Ryan M Lau, Mansi M Kasliwal +8
Supernova (SN) 2014C is a unique explosion where a seemingly typical hydrogen-poor stripped envelope SN started to interact with a dense, hydrogen-rich circumstellar medium (CSM) a…
The isolation of Luminous Blue Variables resembles aging B-type supergiants, not the most massive unevolved stars
Nathan Smith
Luminous blue variables (LBVs) are suprisingly isolated from the massive O-type stars that are their putative progenitors in single-star evolution, implicating LBVs as binary evolu…
Ultraviolet Mg II emission from fast neutral ejecta around Eta Carinae
Nathan Smith, Jon A. Morse
We present the first images of the nebula around eta Carinae obtained with HST/WFC3, including a UV image in the F280N filter that traces MgII emission, plus contemporaneous imagin…
The diverse lives of progenitors of hydrogen-rich core-collapse supernovae: the role of binary interaction
Emmanouil Zapartas, Selma E. de Mink, Stephen Justham +7
Hydrogen-rich supernovae, known as Type II (SNe II), are the most common class of explosions observed following the collapse of the core of massive stars. We use analytical estimat…
