Stellar Properties of Observed Stars Stripped in Binaries in the Magellanic Clouds

Massive stars (∼8–25 M _⊙ ) stripped of their hydrogen-rich envelopes via binary interaction are thought to be the main progenitors for merging neutron stars and stripped-envelope supernovae. We recently presented the discovery of the first set of such stripped stars in a companion paper. Here, we f...
