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…

A nearly pristine star from the Large Magellanic Cloud

Alexander P. Ji, Vedant Chandra, Selenna Mejias-Torres +28

The first stars formed out of pristine gas, causing them to be so massive that none are expected to have survived until today. If their direct descendants were sufficiently low-mas…

Spectacular nucleosynthesis from early massive stars

Alexander P. Ji, Sanjana Curtis, Nicholas Storm +39

Stars formed with initial mass over 50 Msun are very rare today, but they are thought to be more common in the early universe. The fates of those early, metal-poor, massive stars a…

Nebular Halpha emission in SN Ia 2016jae

N. Elias-Rosa, P. Chen, S. Benetti +7

There is a wide consensus that type Ia supernovae (SN Ia) originate from the thermonuclear explosion of CO white dwarfs (WD), with the lack of hydrogen in the observed spectra as a…
