The Birth of a Massive First-star Binary [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2020
We study the formation of massive Population III binary stars using a newly developed radiation hydrodynamics code with the adaptive mesh refinement and adaptive ray-tracing methods.

Gravitational Waves and Gamma-rays from a Binary Neutron Star Merger: GW170817 and GRB 170817A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
On 2017 August 17, the gravitational-wave event GW170817 was observed by the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors, and the gamma-ray burst (GRB) GRB 170817A was observed independently by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor, and the Anticoincidence Shield for ...

Intermediate-mass Black Holes from High Massive-star Binary Fractions in Young Star Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2020
Black holes formed in dense star clusters, where dynamical interactions are frequent, may have fundamentally different properties than those formed through isolated stellar evolution.

Neutron Star Mergers and the Quark Matter Equation of State [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
As neutron stars merge they can approach very high nuclear density. Here, we summarized recent results for the evolution and gravitational wave emission from binary-neutron star mergers using a a variety of nuclear equations of state with and without a ...

High-resolution optical and infrared spectroscopic observations of Cir X-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We present new optical and infrared (IR) observations of Cir X-1 taken near apastron. Both sets of spectra show asymmetric emission lines. Archival optical observations show that an asymmetric Hα emission line has been in evidence for the past 20 years ...

Binary black holes in young star clusters: the impact of metallicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Young star clusters are the most common birth-place of massive stars and are dynamically active environments. Here, we study the formation of black holes (BHs) and binary black holes (BBHs) in young star clusters, by means of 6000 N-body simulations ...

Properties of the Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
On August 17, 2017, the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors observed a low-mass compact binary inspiral. The initial sky localization of the source of the gravitational-wave signal, GW170817, allowed electromagnetic ...

The distance variation due to mass transfer and mass loss in (13.6+8) Mand (13+10) M binary star systems

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Physics, 2019
In this research the change in the distance of the two stars in two binary star systems (13.6+8)M8and (13+10)M8 was studied, through the calculations the value  (rate of mass transfer) of the two phases of dynamical stages of mass which are mass loss ...

Binary star formation and the outflows from their discs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We carry out magnetohydrodynamical simulations with FLASH of the formation of a single, a tight binary ($a\sim$2.5 AU) and a wide binary star ($a\sim$45 AU).

K2-136: A Hyades Binary Star with a Neptune-sized Planet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We report the discovery of a Neptune-size planet (Rp = 3.0 Re) in the Hyades Cluster. The host star is in a binary system, comprising a K5V star and M7/8V star with a projected separation of 40 AU.
