英文摘要

We report the discovery of two new unbound hypervelocity stars (HVSs) from the LAMOST spectroscopic surveys. They are, respectively, a B2V-type star of similar to 7M(circle dot) with a Galactic rest-frame radial velocity of 502 km s(-1) at a Galactocentric radius of similar to 21 kpc and a B7V-type star of similar to 4M(circle dot) with a Galactic rest-frame radial velocity of 408 km s-1 at a Galactocentric radius of similar to 30 kpc. The origins of the two HVSs are not clear given their currently poorly measured proper motions. However, the future data releases of Gaia should provide proper motion measurements accurate enough to solve this problem. The ongoing LAMOST spectroscopic surveys are expected to yield more HVSs to form a statistical sample, providing vital constraints on understanding the nature of HVSs and their ejection mechanisms.
