A Massive Yellow Supergiant in the Far Outer Disk of M31: Evidence for in Situ Massive Star Formation beyond the Optical Radius
While massive stars are known to shape galactic ecosystems, their formation has long been assumed to require the high-density environments of inner galactic disks. This paradigm is challenged by mounting evidence of young massive stars in extended galaxy outskirts, yet direct confirmation of in situ...
