We spatially and temporally resolve the future Supernova (SN) rate in the Solar vicinity and the whole Galaxy by comparing observational parameters of massive stars with theoretical models for estimating age and mass and, hence, the remaining life-time until the SN explosion. Our SN rate derived in time and space for the future (few Myr) should be the same as in the last few Myr by assuming a constant rate. From BVRIJHK photometry, parallax, spectral type, and luminosity class we compile a Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (H-R D) for 25027 massive stars and derive extinction, and luminosity, then mass, age, and remaining life-time from evolutionary models. Within 600pc our sample of SN progenitors and, hence, SN prediction, is complete, and all future SN events of our sample stars take place in 8% of the area of the sky, whereas 90% of the events take place in 7% of the area of the sky. The current SN rate within 600pc is increased by a factor of 5-6 compared with the Galactic rate. For a distance of 5kpc our sample is incomplete, nevertheless 90% of those SN events take place in only 12% of the area of the projected sky. If the SN rate in the near future is the same as the recent past, there should be unknown young neutron stars concentrated in those areas. Our distribution can be used as input for constraints of gravitational waves detection and for neutron star searches.

We present 22,901 OB spectra of 16,032 stars identified from LAMOST DR5 dataset. A larger sample of OB candidates are firstly selected from the distributions in the spectral line indices space. Then all 22,901 OB spectra are identified by manual insp
ection. Based on a sub-sample validation, we find that the completeness of the OB spectra reaches about $89pm22$% for the stars with spectral type earlier than B7, while around $57pm16$% B8--B9 stars are identified. The smaller completeness for late B stars is lead to the difficulty to discriminate them from A0--A1 type stars. The sub-classes of the OB samples are determined using the software package MKCLASS. With a careful validation using 646 sub-samples, we find that MKCLASS can give fairly reliable sub-types and luminosity class for most of the OB stars. The uncertainty of the spectral sub-type is around 1 sub-type and the uncertainty of the luminosity class is around 1 level. However, about 40% of the OB stars are failed to be assigned to any class by MKCLASS and a few spectra are significantly misclassified by MKCLASS. This is likely because that the template spectra of MKCLASS are selected from nearby stars in the solar neighborhood, while the OB stars in this work are mostly located in the outer disk and may have lower metallicity. The rotation of the OB stars may also be responsible for the mis-classifications. Moreover, we find that the spectral and luminosity classes of the OB stars located in the Galactic latitude larger than 20$^circ$ are substantially different with those located in latitude smaller than 20$^circ$, which may either due to the observational selection effect or hint a different origin of the high Galactic latitude OB stars.
We present results from a survey searching for spatially resolved near-infrared line emission from molecular hydrogen gas in the circumstellar environments of nine young stars: AA Tau, AB Aur, DoAr 21, GG Tau, GM Aur, LkCa 15, LkH$alpha$ 264, UY Aur,
and V773 Tau. Prior high-resolution spectra of these stars showed the presence of ro-vibrational H$_2$ line emission at 2.12$mu$m with characteristics more typical of gas located in proto-planetary disks rather than outflows. In this study, we spatially resolve the H$_2$ emission in the eight stars where it is detected. LkCa 15 is the only target that exhibits no appreciable H$_2$ despite a prior detection. We find an anti-correlation between H$_2$ and X-ray luminosities, likely indicating that the X-ray ionization process is not the dominant H$_2$ excitation mechanism in these systems. AA Tau, UY Aur, and V773 Tau show discrete knots of H$_2$, as typically associated with shocks in outflowing gas. UY Aur and V773 Tau exhibit spatially resolved velocity structures, while the other systems have spectrally unresolved emission consistent with systemic velocities. V773 Tau exhibits a complex line morphology indicating the presence of multiple excitation mechanisms, including red and blue-shifted bipolar knots of shock-excited outflowing gas. AB Aur, GM Aur, and LkH$alpha$ 264 have centralized, yet spatially resolved H$_2$ emission consistent with a disk origin. The H$_2$ images of AB Aur reveal spiral structures within the disk, matching those observed in ALMA CO maps. This survey reveals new insights into the structure and excitation of warm gas in the circumstellar environments of these young stars.
Runaway OB stars are ejected from their parent clusters via two mechanisms, both involving multiple stars: the dynamical ejection scenario (DES) and the binary supernova scenario (BSS). We constrain the relative contributions from these two ejection
mechanisms in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using data for 304 field OB stars from the spatially complete, Runaways and Isolated O-Type Star Spectroscopic Survey of the SMC (RIOTS4). We obtain stellar masses and projected rotational velocities $v_rsin i $ for the sample using RIOTS4 spectra, and use transverse velocities $v_{rm loc}$ from $it{Gaia}$ DR2 proper motions. Kinematic analyses of the masses, $v_rsin i $, non-compact binaries, high-mass X-ray binaries, and Oe/Be stars largely support predictions for the statistical properties of the DES and BSS populations. We find that dynamical ejections dominate over supernova ejections by a factor of $sim 2-3$ in the SMC, and our results suggest a high frequency of DES runaways and binary ejections. Objects seen as BSS runaways also include two-step ejections of binaries that are reaccelerated by SN kicks. We find that two-step runaways likely dominate the BSS runaway population. Our results further imply that any contribution from $it{in-situ}$ field OB star formation is small. Finally, our data strongly support the post-mass-transfer model for the origin of classical Oe/Be stars, providing a simple explanation for the bimodality in the $v_rsin i $ distribution and high, near-critical, Oe/Be rotation velocities. The close correspondence of Oe/Be stars with BSS predictions implies that the emission-line disks are long-lived.
We numerically study the spatially-resolved NMR around a single vortex in a noncentrosymmetric superconductor such as CePt3Si. The nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 under the influence of the vortex core states is calculated for an s+p-wave
Cooper pairing state. The result is compared with that for an s-wave pairing state.
The lack of long range order in organic semiconductor thin films prevents the unveiling of the complete nature of excitons in optical experiments, because the diffraction limited beam diameters in the bandgap region far exceed typical crystalline gra
in sizes. Here we present spatially-, temporally- and polarization-resolved dual photoluminescence/linear dichroism microscopy experiments that investigate exciton states within a single crystalline grain in solution-processed phthalocyanine thin films. These experiments reveal the existence of a delocalized singlet exciton, polarized along the high mobility axis in this quasi-1D electronic system. The strong delocalized {pi} orbitals overlap controlled by the molecular stacking along the high mobility axis is responsible for breaking the radiative recombination selection rules. Using our linear dichroism scanning microscopy setup we further established a rotation of molecules (i.e. a structural phase transition) that occurs above 100 K prevents the observation of this exciton at room temperature.
