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

Massive black hole binaries from runaway collisions: the impact of metallicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The runaway collision scenario is one of the most promising mechanisms to explain the formation of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) in young dense star clusters.

The LISA Gravitational Wave Foreground: A Study of Double White Dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Double white dwarfs are expected to be a source of confusion-limited noise for the future gravitational wave observatory LISA. In a specific frequency range, this 'foreground noise' is predicted to rise above the instrumental noise and hinder the ...

The Evolution of a Supermassive Retrograde Binary Embedded in an Accretion Disk

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2015
In this note we discuss the main results of a study of a massive binary with unequal mass ratio, q, embedded in an accretion disk, with its orbital rotation being opposed to that of the disk.

THE DEPENDENCE OF ON- AND OFF-STATE GENERATIONS IN CLASSICAL MICROQUASARS FROM THE DISK DENSITY. 3-D NUMERICAL HYDRODYNAMICAL SIMULATIONS OF THE HIGH AND LOW MASS ACCRETION RATE IN ACCRETION DISK IN MICROQUASAR CYG X-1

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2018
In the present work we have computed and have compared the on- and off- generations in low and high mass accretion rate accretion disks. The comparison shows that in the case of low mass accretion rate in disk (10−10 solar mass per year) the ON-state time

Asteroseismic Analysis of δ Scuti Components of Binary Systems: The Case of KIC 8504570

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
The present work concerns the Asteroseismology of the Kepler-detached eclipsing binary KIC 8504570. Particularly, it focuses on the pulsational behaviour of the oscillating component of this system and the estimation of its physical parameters in order ...

Merging binary black holes formed through chemically homogeneous evolution in short-period stellar binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We explore a newly proposed channel to create binary black holes of stellar origin. This scenario applies to massive, tight binaries where mixing induced by rotation and tides transports the products of hydrogen burning throughout the stellar envelopes ...

Binaries and distances [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012
AbstractGaia's five-year observation baseline might naively lead to the expectation that it will be possible to fit the parallax of any sufficiently nearby object with the default five-parameter model (position at a reference epoch, parallax and proper motion).

An HST/WFPC2 Survey for Brown Dwarf Binaries in the alpha Per and the Pleiades Open Clusters

open access: yes, 2003
We present the results of a high-resolution imaging survey for brown dwarf (BD) binaries in two open clusters. The observations were carried out with WFPC2 onboard HST.

Evaluating GAIA performances on eclipsing binaries. I. Orbits and stellar parameters for V505 Per, V570 Per and OO Peg [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The orbits and physical parameters of three detached, double-lined A-F eclipsing binaries have been derived combining H_P, V_T, B_T photometry from the Hipparcos/Tycho mission with 8500-8750 Ang ground-based spectroscopy, mimicking the photometric ...
