Lithium Enrichment in a Subgiant Star with a Brown Dwarf Companion: A Planetary Engulfment Candidate

Brooke Kotten, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Ricardo Yarza +11

Theoretical models predict that subgiants within a narrow mass regime can retain detectable lithium enrichment signatures from planetary engulfment. We test this prediction using T…

TIC 295741342: A Triply-Eclipsing Triple Star System with a Giant Tertiary

Brian P. Powell, Guillermo Torres, Veselin B. Kostov +4

We present the discovery and characterization of TIC 295741342, a triply-eclipsing triple star system with a giant tertiary. The eclipsing binary consists of two similar main-seque…

Ultraviolet spectroscopy reveals a hot and luminous companion to the Be star+black hole candidate MWC 656

Johanna Müller-Horn, Varsha Ramachandran, Kareem El-Badry +11

The Galactic Be star binary MWC 656 was long considered the only known Be star+black hole (BH) system, making it a critical benchmark for models of massive binary evolution and for…

HIP 15429: A newborn Be star on an eccentric binary orbit

Johanna Müller-Horn, Kareem El-Badry, Hans-Walter Rix +9

We identified a new post-interaction binary, HIP 15429, consisting of a stripped star and a recently formed, rapidly rotating Be star companion ( km/s) sharin…

Planets Around Solar Twins/Analogs (PASTA) I.: High precision stellar chemical abundance for 17 planet-hosting stars and the condensation temperature trend

Qinghui Sun, Sharon Xuesong Wang, Tianjun Gan +30

The Sun is depleted in refractory elements compared to nearby solar twins, which may be linked to the formation of giant or terrestrial planets. Here we present high-resolution, hi…
