An upper limit on Galactic OB+black hole binaries from SDSS-V

J. Müller-Horn, H. -W. Rix, S. Shahaf +14

Binaries composed of a luminous OB star and a black hole (BH) are a key evolutionary link between massive stellar binaries and merging compact-object binaries, but only a handful a…

SDSS-V Local Volume Mapper (LVM): The Integrated Light and Internal Rotation of Omega Centauri

Maximilian Häberle, Dmitry Bizyaev, Alina Boecker +34

The SDSS-V Local Volume Mapper (LVM) is a wide-field integral field spectroscopic survey of the Southern Milky Way plane, the Magellanic Clouds, and nearby Local Group galaxies. We…

There is no single density: star-forming regions and galaxies hold more dense ionized gas than long assumed

J. Eduardo Méndez-Delgado, Christophe Morisset, William J. Henney +29

Ionized gas fills star-forming regions and galaxies, and nearly everything we know about its temperature, pressure, mass, and composition is inferred from its emission lines [1-3].…

Milky Way Mapper decoded abundances -- II: From patterns to paths

Melissa K. Ness, Sarah Aquilina, Jennifer Mead +15

The element abundances of Milky Way disc stars encode entangled imprints of multiple enrichment processes, making it difficult to uncover the underlying chemical evolution. Here we…

Milky Way Mapper decoded abundances -- I. Shared disc enrichment patterns

Melissa K. Ness, Sarah Aquilina, Jennifer Mead +15

Elemental abundances in the Milky Way disc trace its star-formation and enrichment history, but predicting these abundances from theory is limited by uncertain nucleosynthetic yiel…
