Coalescing binary neutron stars [PDF]
Classical and Quantum Gravity, 1999 Coalescing compact binaries with neutron star or black hole components provide the most promising sources of gravitational radiation for detection by the LIGO/VIRGO/GEO/TAMA laser interferometers now under construction. This fact has motivated several different theoretical studies of the inspiral and hydrodynamic merging of compact binaries.

Binary stars in Praesepe [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1992 AbstractIn open clusters the scatter about the single-star main sequence is usually negligible. However, unresolved binary systems are brighter and redder than single stars, and thus some ‘stars’ appear shifted away from the main sequence. We make very simple models of the Praesepe cluster, and find evidence that low-mass systems prefer independent ...

Galaxies, 2018 The increase in discovered close binary central stars of planetary nebulae is leading to a sufficiently large sample to begin to make broader conclusions about the effect of close binary stars on common envelope evolution and planetary nebula formation ...

A Search for Exoplanets in Short-Period Binary Star Systems [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2012 This paper reports the progress of a search for exoplanets with S-type orbits in short-period binary star systems. The selected targets have stellar orbital periods of just a few days. These systems are eclipsing binaries so that exoplanet transits, if

Ultracompact binary stars [PDF]
Physics Today, 2006 Double stars with tight, rapid orbits enable astronomers to study issues ranging from binary-star evolution to the internal structure of white dwarfs and neutron stars. In addition, they may emit directly observable gravitational waves.

Binary Star Orbits. VI. The Interferometric-spectroscopic Binary 73 Leo
The Astronomical JournalDiscordances in radial-velocity measurements of 73 Leonis, made more than a century ago, gave rise to the first suggestion that this fifth-magnitude star was a binary system, but it was 40 yr before an accurate investigation of the object commenced, and ...
