The Evolution of Compact Binary Star Systems

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2014
We review the formation and evolution of compact binary stars consisting of white dwarfs (WDs), neutron stars (NSs), and black holes (BHs). Mergings of compact-star binaries are expected to be the most important sources for forthcoming gravitational-wave

A New Catalog of Am-type Chemically Peculiar Stars Based on LAMOST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
A total of about 21,600 Am candidates were detected with the MKCLASS code based on the low-resolution spectra of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope Data Releases 8 (v1.0), 9 (v0), and 10 (v0), which greatly expands the database

Kepler K2 and TESS Observations of Two Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables: The New Asynchronous Polar SDSS J084617.11+245344.1 and Paloma

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
There have been relatively few published long-duration, uninterrupted light curves of magnetic cataclysmic variable stars in which the accreting white dwarf’s rotational frequency is slightly desynchronized from the binary orbital frequency.

Mid-Cycle Observations of CR Boo and Estimation of the System’s Parameters

open access: yesData, 2020
We present observations (with NAO Rozhen and AS Vidojevica telescopes) of the AM Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) binary star CR Bootis (CR Boo) in the UBV bands. The data were obtained in two nights in July 2019, when the V band brightness was in the range of

The Mass–Temperature Relation for B and Early A Stars Based on International Ultraviolet Explorer Spectra of Detached Eclipsing Binaries

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Ultraviolet spectra were taken of 25 detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs) with spectral types O, B, and early A with the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite in the 1150–1900 Å region. The spectra were compared with BOSZ model atmospheres.

Identification of 1RXS J165424.6-433758 as a Polar Cataclysmic Variable

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the results of our X-ray, ultraviolet, and optical follow-up campaigns of 1RXS J165424.6-433758, an X-ray source detected with the Swift Deep Galactic Plane Survey.

MAGNETIZATION OF STARS VS. THE EFFECTIVE TEMPERATURE

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2008
Using all published magnetic measurements there were detected some dependences of frequency of occurrence of magnetic field value for all types of peculiarity (Bychkov et al., 2003a, 2008). On the basis of it we normalized these dependences for the most "

SDSS J134441.83+204408.3: A Highly Asynchronous Short-period Magnetic Cataclysmic Variable with a 56 MG Field Strength

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
When the accreting white dwarf in a magnetic cataclysmic variable star (mCV) has a field strength in excess of 10 MG, it is expected to synchronize its rotational frequency to the binary orbit frequency, particularly at small binary separations, due to ...

Ba-enhanced Dwarf and Subgiant Stars in the LAMOST Galactic Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Ba-enhanced stars are interesting probes of stellar astrophysics and Galactic formation history. In this work, we investigate the chemistry and kinematics of a large sample of Ba-enhanced ([Ba/Fe]>1.0) dwarf and subgiant stars with 5000 < T _eff < 6700 K

Maximum mass ratio of AM CVn-type binary systems and maximum white dwarf mass in ultra-compact X-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2011
AM CVn-type stars and ultra-compact X-ray binaries are extremely interesting semi-detached close binary systems in which the Roche lobe filling component is a white dwarf transferring mass to another white dwarf, neutron star or a black hole ...
