Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) are stars with velocities exceeding their local escape velocities. Searching for HVSs and studying their origins can be an important way to study the properties of the Milky Way. In this paper, we utilize precise…
In a companion paper, we have conducted an in-depth analysis of radial velocity jitter of over 600 stars, examining the astrophysical origins including stellar granulation, oscillation, and magnetic activity. In this paper, we highlight a…
Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) unbound to the Galaxy can be formed with extreme stellar interactions. Observational evidence comes from measurements of radial velocities (RVs) of objects crossing the Galactic halo and of tangential velocities…
