A population-synthesis framework shows rotation and unresolved companions bias isochrone ages by a factor of at least 2 near the ZAMS and by 31% for older A stars, adding ~0.1 solar mass and ~180 Myr random uncertainties.
V486 Car is a near-contact binary with component masses 2.1 and 0.4 solar masses, radii 3.2 and 1.48 solar radii, temperatures 10000 K and 6200 K, plus evidence for a ~0.3 solar mass companion at a few AU.

Stellar winds of O-type stars traced by high ionization fine-structure emission lines with JWST/MIRI

Quantifying isochrone-based age uncertainties for rapidly rotating A-type stars
A population-synthesis framework shows rotation and unresolved companions bias isochrone ages by a factor of at least 2 near the ZAMS and by 31% for older A stars, adding ~0.1 solar mass and ~180 Myr random uncertainties.
