  We report the discovery of 3 new unbound hypervelocity stars (HVSs), stars
traveling with such extreme velocities that dynamical ejection from a massive
black hole (MBH) is their only suggested origin. We also detect a population of
possibly bound HVSs. The significant asymmetry we observe in the velocity
distribution -- we find 26 stars with v_rf > 275 km/s and 1 star with v_rf <
-275 km/s -- shows that the HVSs must be short-lived, probably 3 - 4 Msun main
sequence stars. Any population of hypervelocity post-main sequence stars should
contain stars falling back onto the Galaxy, contrary to the observations. The
spatial distribution of HVSs also supports the main sequence interpretation:
longer-lived 3 Msun HVSs fill our survey volume; shorter-lived 4 Msun HVSs are
missing at faint magnitudes. We infer that there are 96 +- 10 HVSs of mass 3 -
4 Msun within R < 100 kpc, possibly enough HVSs to constrain ejection
mechanisms and potential models. Depending on the mass function of HVSs, we
predict that SEGUE may find up to 5 - 15 new HVSs. The travel times of our HVSs
favor a continuous ejection process, although a ~120 Myr-old burst of HVSs is
also allowed.
