It’s Saturday once again, so it’s time for another update of activity at the Open Journal of Astrophysics. Since the last update we have published a further four papers, bringing the number in Volume 9 (2026) to 114 and the total so far published by OJAp up to 562. I will continue to include the posts made on our Mastodon account (on Fediscience); these announcements also show the DOI for each paper. The first paper to report this week, published on Monday 25th May is “Little Red Dot – Host Galaxy = Black Hole Star: A Gas-Enshrouded Heart at the Center of Every Little Red Dot” by Wendy Q. Sun (MIT, USA) and 32 others from around the world. This study presents evidence that “black hole stars” (BH*), early stages of black hole growth, power Little Red Dots (LRDs) and every massive black hole may have been a BH*.
