Binary stars in Praesepe [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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 ...

Surveying Planetary Nebulae Central Stars for Close Binaries: Constraining Evolution of Central Stars Based on Binary Parameters

open access: yesGalaxies, 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 ...

Mass Ratio of Single-line Spectroscopic Binaries with Visual Orbits Using Bayesian Inference and Suitable Priors

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present orbital elements for 22 single-line binaries, nine of them studied for the first time, determined from a joint spectroscopic and astrometric solution.

A Search for Exoplanets in Short-Period Binary Star Systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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

CW Cas: A Solar-type Contact Binary System with an Unseen Third Companion in a Hierarchical Quadruple System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a comprehensive multiband photometric and spectroscopic study of the G-type binary CW Cas. Analysis of its double-lined spectroscopic radial velocity curves yields a reliable mass ratio of q  = 1.88(9).

Ultracompact binary stars [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics 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.

Clinical Course and Impact of Breaks in Therapy for Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors carry a dismal prognosis, and postrelapse patient experiences are not well described. We present postrelapse outcomes, including number of R/R events and subsequent therapy regimens.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Binary Star Orbits. VI. The Interferometric-spectroscopic Binary 73 Leo

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Discordances 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 ...
