A 1.9 solar-mass neutron star candidate in a 2-year orbit
We report discovery and characterization of a main-sequence G star orbiting a dark object with mass $1.90\pm 0.04\,M_{\odot}$. The system was discovered via Gaia astrometry and has an orbital period of 731 days. We obtained multi-epoch RV follow-up over a period of 639 days, allowing us to refine th...
