A Low Metallicity Massive Contact Binary Star System Candidate in WLM Identified by Hubble and James Webb Space Telescope Imaging

We present archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and JWST ultraviolet through near-infrared time series photometric observations of a massive minimal-contact binary candidate in the metal-poor galaxy Wolf–Lundmark–Melotte ( Z  = 0.14 Z _⊙ ). This discovery marks the lowest metallicity contact binary...
