1. The standard theory of planet formation holds that no planet that large could be formed so close to a star, leading to the suggestion that the body is a companionstar.
16. Before the explosion, the companion star may have dumped gas onto VFTS 102, spinning it up to extreme speed the way falling water makes a water wheel turn.
17. In fact, a pulsar seems to be fleeing from the fast-spinning star, suggesting the two were once a pair that split up when a companion star exploded and became the pulsar we see today.
18. A microquasar is formed after a very massive star explodes, leaving behind a black hole around 10 to 20 times the mass of the sun, which then starts feeding on gas from a surviving companionstar.
19. The new model also holds that the companion object is a so-called "B star" circled by a dusty disk.
这个新模型依然坚持的观点是那个被称为“B星”的伴星被星尘带所环绕。

20. The new planetary system, the first in which both planets can be seen crossing in front of their star, may also contain an Earth-sized companion.

21. Dimming, meanwhile, could mean an object is passing in front of the star, or that the companion (and its lighted side) is passing behind the star.
同时，不亮则可能意味着有天体从恒星前掠过，或“搭档”(和其亮面)正通过恒星后方。

22. If the star seems to periodically dim and brighten over the year, it's likely that a big orbiting companion helped form the soccer ball-like seams.
如果这颗恒星年复一年的周期性明暗交替，那么形成足球状壳层多亏环绕它的“拍档”帮助就很有可能正确。

23. A 'mysterious dark companion' has been observed for the first time in a star system which has puzzled sky-watchers since the 19th century.
24. If a star has a companion, it will seem to wobble as it moves across the sky.
如果一颗恒星有一颗伴星，那么当它横越天空运动时，它似乎是摇摇晃晃的。

25. Every 20 years or so the red giant star dumps enough hydrogen gas onto its companion White Dwarf star to set off a brilliant thermonuclear explosion on the White Dwarf's surface.
大约每过20年红巨星向它的白矮伴星上输出足够的氢气在白矮星表面产生一次耀眼的热核爆炸。

26. The model comprising accretion onto a neutron star or black hole companion must still be considered a favored hypothesis.
在中子星或黑洞伴星上发生吸积的模型，仍应看成是一个有价值的假说。
