Binary Stars

Science, 1984
Most stars in the solar neighborhood are either double or multiple systems. They provide a unique opportunity to measure stellar masses and radii and to study many interesting and important phenomena. The best candidates for black holes are compact massive components of two x-ray binaries: Cygnus X-1 and LMC X-3.

Binary Star Systems

1991
Star catalogue data indicate that only 30 of every 100 stars are alone (Allen, 1973). The rest are in double or multiple star systems. By itself, this finding would be sufficient justification for including binary star systems in a book designed to help its readers explore the nature of our cosmos. But there is much more.

Close binary stars

1994
At the time of this report in September 1993, about a year before the next General Assembly in 1994, the membership of Commission 42 stands at 357, an increase of forty-two members since the time of the last report prepared in September 1990. This is an increase of more than 10 percent, indicating the continuing vitality of our Commission in ...

Binary Star Formation

1991
Chapter Camera ready when published. ; Any theory of star formation which fails to take cognizance of the fact that most stars are in binary systems is seriously incomplete. Here we review the various mechanisms that have been proposed for the formation of binary stars and argue that there is still much work to be done.

Binary Neutron Stars

Scientific American, 1995
COLLIDING NEUTRON STARS mark the end of a pattern of stellar evolution that now appears to be more likely than astronomers once thought. More than half the stars in the sky belong to binary systems; perhaps one in 100 of the most massive pairs will ultimately become neutron star binaries.

Close Binary Stars

1985
Research on close binary systems has continued at a high level during the past triennium, although the rate of growth is noticeably slower - probably reflecting the cutbacks in funds to which many of us are subject. There have also been changes of emphasis within the field, which are commented on in the pages that follow.
