Mmt Hypervelocity Star Survey
We describe a new survey for unbound hypervelocity stars (HVSs), stars traveling with such extreme velocities that dynamical ejection from a massive black hole (MBH) is their most likely origin. We investigate the possible contribution of unbound runaway stars, and show that the physical properties of binaries constrain low mass runaways to bound velocities. We measure radial velocities for HVS...
متن کاملDissolving star cluster candidates
We present a list of 34 neglected entries from star cluster catalogues located at relatively high galactic latitudes (|b| > 15) which appear to be candidate late stages of star cluster dynamical evolution. Although underpopulated with respect to usual open clusters, they still present a high number density contrast as compared to the galactic field. This was verified by means of (i) predicted m...
متن کاملA hypervelocity star from the Large Magellanic Cloud
We study the acceleration of the star HE 0437–5439 to hypervelocity and discuss its possible origin in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The star has a radial velocity of 723 km s and is located at a distance of 61 kpc from the Sun. With a mass of about 8M⊙, the travel time from the Galactic centre is of about 100Myr, much longer than its main sequence lifetime. Given the relatively small dista...
متن کاملThe First Hypervelocity Star from the Lamost Survey
We report the first hypervelocity star (HVS) discovered from the LAMOST spectroscopic survey. It is a B-type star with a heliocentric radial velocity about 620 km s, which projects to a Galactocentric radial velocity component of ∼477 km s. With a heliocentric distance of ∼13 kpc and an apparent magnitude of ∼13 mag, it is the nearest bright HVS currently known. With a mass of ∼9M⊙, it is one o...
متن کاملCool star model atmospheres for Gaia : ATLAS, MARCS, and PHOENIX
I present the widely used model atmosphere codes ATLAS, MARCS, and PHOENIX, and I compare their output model structures and spectra for cool stars of FGKMtypes. While model atmosphere stratifications agree closely with each other in the 1-D approximation, this is not the case for spectra. Differences between model spectra from different codes are largest in the blue-UV, but smaller differences ...
