摘要
We verify candidate hypervelocity red clump stars located in the Galactic bulge that were selected based on the VVV and the Gaia DR2 data by Luna et al. To do so, we analyze data from the OGLE-IV survey: difference images and astrometric time series. We have data for 30 stars out of 34 hypervelocity candidates. We confirmed the high proper motion of only one of these stars and find out that it is a nearby one, hence, not a hypervelocity star. To sum up, we do not confirm the candidate stars as hypervelocity ones. Hence, we disprove the production rate of hypervelocity red clump stars by the central supermassive black hole provided by Luna et al.
