Most EL CVn systems are inner binaries of hierarchical triples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In spite of their importance for modern astronomy, we do not fully understand how close binary stars containing at least one white dwarf form from main sequence binary stars. The discovery of EL CVn binaries, close pre-white dwarfs with A/F main sequence star companions, offers now the unique possibility to test models of close compact binary star ...

CLOSE BINARY SYSTEMS ON LATE EVOLUTIONARY STAGES

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Observational and theoretical progress in investigations of close binary stars allow to understand the nature and evolution of many types of close binary systems containing peculiar components: Wolf-Rayet stars, white dwarfs neutron stars and black holes.

Bimodal Black Hole Mass Distribution and Chirp Masses of Binary Black Hole Mergers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
In binary black hole mergers from isolated binary-star evolution, both black holes are from progenitor stars that have lost their hydrogen-rich envelopes by binary mass transfer.

Irrotational binary neutron stars in quasiequilibrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We report on numerical results from an independent formalism to describe the quasi-equilibrium structure of nonsynchronous binary neutron stars in general relativity.

Stellar Properties of Observed Stars Stripped in Binaries in the Magellanic Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Massive stars (∼8–25 M _⊙ ) stripped of their hydrogen-rich envelopes via binary interaction are thought to be the main progenitors for merging neutron stars and stripped-envelope supernovae.

General Relativistic Decompression of Binary Neutron Stars During Dynamic Inspiral

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate the dynamic stability of inspiraling neutron stars by performing multiple-orbit numerical relativity simulations of the binary neutron star inspiral process.

Comparison of kinship‐identification methods for robust stock assessment using close‐kin mark–recapture data for Pacific bluefin tuna

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
In this study, we compared three methods for kinship identification using different algorithms in samples of wild Pacific bluefin tuna and generated genotyping data. The three methods resulted in different numbers of inferred kinship pairs for both generated and actual data. Particularly for the half‐sibling pairs, considerable number of false‐positive

Detecting New Visual Binaries in Gaia DR3 with Gaia and Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) Photometry. I. New Candidate Binaries within 200 pc of the Sun

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present a method to identify likely visual binaries in Gaia eDR3 that does not rely on parallax or proper motion. This method utilizes the various point-spread function sizes of Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS)/Gaia, where at

Red-giant stars in eccentric binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The unparalleled photometric data obtained by NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope has led to improved understanding of red-giant stars and binary stars. We discuss the characterization of known eccentric system, containing a solar-like oscillating red-giant ...

The binary fraction of extreme horizontal branch stars [PDF]

open access: yesMon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc.326:1391,2001, 2001
(Abbreviated) We have used precise radial velocity measurements of subdwarf-B stars from the Palomar-Green catalogue to look for binary extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars. We identify 36 EHB stars in our sample and find that at least 21 of these stars are binaries. All but one or two of these are new identifications.
