R-Process elements from magnetorotational hypernovae
(2021-07-08)
Neutron-star mergers were recently confirmed as sites of rapid-neutron-capture (r-process) nucleosynthesis 1–3. However, in Galactic chemical evolution models, neutron-star mergers alone cannot reproduce the observed element ...
The GALAH+ Survey : Third Data Release
(2021-05-06)
The ensemble of chemical element abundance measurements for stars, along with precision distances and orbit properties, provides high-dimensional data to study the evolution of the Milky Way. With this third data release ...
Assessing the stellar population and the environment of an HII region on the far side of the Galaxy
(2021-04-20)
We have investigated the stellar and interstellar content of the distant star formation region IRAS 17591-2228 (WISE HII region GAL 007.47+0.06). It is associated to a water maser, whose parallax distance is d=20.4^{+2.8} ...
Observations of magnetic fields surrounding LkHa 101 taken by the BISTRO survey with JCMT-POL-2
(2021-02-10)
We report the first high spatial resolution measurement of magnetic fields surrounding LkHa 101, part of the Auriga- California molecular cloud. The observations were taken with the POL-2 polarimeter on the James Clerk ...
A VLBA Survey of radio stars in the Orion Nebula Cluster: II. Astrometry
(2021-01-04)
From Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations we previously identified a population of 123 young stellar systems with nonthermal radio emission toward the core of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). We find optical sources ...
Constraining Nucleosynthesis in Two CEMP Progenitors Using Fluorine
(2020-11-01)
We present new fluorine abundance estimations in two carbon enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars, HE 1429-0551 and HE 1305+0007. HE 1429-0551 is also enriched in slow neutron-capture process (s-process) elements, a CEMP-s, and ...
A Minimum Dilution Scenario for Supernovae and Consequences for Extremely Metal-Poor Stars
(2020-11-01)
To date no metal-free stars have been identified by direct observations. The most common method of constraining their properties is searching the spectra of the most metal-poor stars for the chemical elements created in ...
VVVX-Gaia Discovery of a Low Luminosity Globular Cluster in the Milky Way Disk
(2020-10-22)
Milky Way globular clusters (MW GCs) are difficult to identify at low Galactic latitudes because of high differential extinction and heavy star crowding. The new deep near-IR images and photometry from the VISTA Variables ...
Cosmic Rates of Black Hole Mergers and Pair-Instability Supernovae from Chemically Homogeneous Binary Evolution
(2020-10-16)
During the first three observing runs of the Advanced gravitational-wave detector network, the LIGO/Virgo collaboration detected several black hole binary (BHBH) mergers. As the population of detected BHBH mergers grows, ...
Increasing the census of L and T dwarfs in wide binary and multiple systems using Dark Energy Survey DR1 and Gaia DR2 data
(2020-10-09)
We present the discovery of 255 binary and six multiple system candidates with wide (> 5") separation composed by L or T dwarfs companions to stars, plus nine double brown dwarf systems. The sample of brown dwarf candidates ...
