Are sdAs helium core stars?

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
Evolved stars with a helium core can be formed by non-conservative mass exchange interaction with a companion or by strong mass loss. Their masses are smaller than 0.5 M⊙. In the database of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), there are several thousand

Beyond binaries and before becoming: Reconsidering resistance in UK higher education

open access: yesPRISM, 2021
 Drawing from the tensions within non-representational and human practice perspectives on affect, this paper continues the task of re-conceptualising academic-level resistance in the context of UK higher education.

Binary autoencoder with random binary weights

open access: yesCoRR, 2020
Here is presented an analysis of an autoencoder with binary activations $\{0, 1\}$ and binary $\{0, 1\}$ random weights. Such set up puts this model at the intersection of different fields: neuroscience, information theory, sparse coding, and machine learning.

The BSN Application-I: Photometric Light Curve Solutions of Contact Binary Systems

open access: yesGalaxies
Light curve analysis of W UMa-type contact binary systems using MCMC or MC methods can be time-consuming, primarily because the repeated generation of synthetic light curves tends to be relatively slow during the fitting process.

An additional pulsating mode (7.35 mHz) and pulsations timing variations of PG 1613+426

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
We present the detection of an additional pulsation mode (7.35 mHz) of a subdwarf B star, PG 1613+426, and periodic Observed minus Calculated (O-C) variations for two existing pulsations. PG 1613+426 is near the hot end of the sdB instability strip.

Search for Supermassive Black Hole Binaries in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Spectroscopic Sample

open access: yes, 2013
Supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries are expected in a Lambda CDM cosmology given that most (if not all) massive galaxies contain a massive black hole at their center. So far, however, direct evidence for such binaries has been elusive.

Low Frequency Gravitational Waves from White Dwarf MACHO Binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The possibility that Galactic halo MACHOs are white dwarfs has recently attracted much attention. Using the known properties of white dwarf binaries in the Galactic disk as a model, we estimate the possible contribution of halo white dwarf binaries to ...

Binary Arithmetic [PDF]

open access: yesComputer, 2007
Digital technology works so well because at the heart of digital representation, there are only a few basic components. Nowadays, these basic components usually are binary digits, bits for short, called binary because they are designed to stand for only two different values, conveniently called zero and one.

Constraining Roche-Lobe Overflow Models Using the Hot-Subdwarf Wide Binary Population

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2017
One of the important issues regarding the final evolution of stars is the impact of binarity. A rich zoo of peculiar, evolved objects are born from the interaction between the loosely bound envelope of a giant, and the gravitational pull of a companion ...
