Hypervelocity stars from young stellar clusters in the Galactic Centre [PDF]
, 2017 The enormous velocities of the so called hypervelocity stars (HVSs) derive, likely, from close interactions with massive black holes, binary stars encounters or supernova explosions.

Carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars: a window on AGB nucleosynthesis and binary evolution. I. Detailed analysis of 15 binary stars with known orbital periods [PDF]
, 2015 AGB stars are responsible for producing a variety of elements, including carbon, nitrogen, and the heavy elements produced in the slow neutron-capture process ($s$-elements).

Population synthesis of neutron stars, strange (quark) stars and black holes [PDF]
, 2000 We compute and present the distribution in mass of single and binary neutron stars, strange stars, and black holes. The calculations were performed using a stellar population synthesis code.

Hypervelocity Collisions of Binary Stars at the Galactic Centre [PDF]
, 2006 Recent surveys have identified seven hypervelocity stars (HVSs) in the halo of the Milky Way. Most of these stars may have originated from the breakup of binary star systems by the nuclear black hole SgrA*.

Building and Calibrating the Binary Star Population Using Kepler Data [PDF]
, 2020 Modeling binary star populations is critical to linking the theories of star formation and stellar evolution with observations. In order to test these theories, we need accurate models of observable binary populations. The Kepler Eclipsing Binary Catalog (KEBC), with its estimated $>$90% completeness, provides an observational anchor on binary ...

The evolution of massive binary systems [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2020 The evolution of massive stars in close binary systems is significantly different from single star evolution due to a series of interactions between the two stellar components.

Probing the models: Abundances for high-mass stars in binaries [PDF]
, 2013 The complexity of composite spectra of close binary star system makes study of the spectra of their component stars extremely difficult. For this reason there exists very little information on the photospheric chemical composition of stars in close ...

Variable binaries and variables in binaries in the Binary Star Database BDB [PDF]
, 2018 The BDB, Binary star DataBase http://bdb.inasan.ru combines data of the catalogues of binary and multiple stars of all observational types. There is a number of ways for variable stars to form or to be a part of binary or multiple systems. We describe how such stars are represented in the database.

Where Are the Binary Source Gravitational Microlensing Events? II [PDF]
CNU-A&SS-05/08, 1998 Currently, 6 candidate binary lens events have been reported, while only a single candidate binary source event has been reported. To account for the rarity of binary source events, Dominik pointed out that for a typical binary source event the separation between the component source stars is very large, resulting in large difference in impact ...
