    MARVELS-1: A Face-on Double-lined Binary Star Masquerading as a Resonant Planetary System and Consideration of Rare False Positives in Radial Velocity Planet Searches
    We have analyzed new and previously published radial velocity (RV) observations of MARVELS-1, known to have an ostensibly substellar companion in a ~6 day orbit...

    Mass and Radius Determinations for Five Transiting M-Dwarf Stars
    We have derived masses and radii for both components in five short-period single-lined eclipsing binary stars discovered by the TrES wide-angle photometric...

    Mass Models of the Milky Way and Estimation of Its Mass from the Gaia DR3 Data Set
    We use data from the Gaia DR3 data set to estimate the mass of the Milky Way (MW) by analyzing the rotation curve in the range of distances 5 to 28 kpc. We...

    Mass Ratio Determination from H α Lines in Black Hole X-Ray Transients
    We find that the mass ratio q in quiescent black hole (BH) X-ray transients is tightly correlated with the ratio of the double-peak separation (DP) to the full...

    Massive Clumps in Local Galaxies: Comparisons with High-redshift Clumps
    Local UV-bright galaxies in the Kiso survey include clumpy systems with kiloparsec-size star complexes that resemble clumpy young galaxies in surveys at high...

    Massive Relic Galaxies Challenge the Co-evolution of Super-massive Black Holes and Their Host Galaxies
    We study a sample of eight massive galaxies that are extreme outliers (3–5σ) in the {M}\bullet ‑ Mbulge local scaling relation. Two of these galaxies are...

    Massive Stars in the SDSS-IV/APOGEE SURVEY. I. OB Stars
    In this work, we make use of DR14 APOGEE spectroscopic data to study a sample of 92 known OB stars. We developed a near-infrared semi-empirical spectral...

    Massive Stars in the SDSS-IV/APOGEE-2 Survey. II. OB-stars in the W345 Complexes
    In this work, we have applied a semi-empirical spectral classification method for OB-stars using the APOGEE spectrograph to a sample of candidates in the W3–W4...
