Discovery of the massive overcontact binary VFTS 352: Evidence for enhanced internal mixing
L. A. Almeida, H. Sana, S. E. de Mink +15
The contact phase expected to precede the coalescence of two massive stars is poorly characterized due to the paucity of observational constraints. Here we report on the discovery…
