Mass Transfer in Eccentric Orbits with Self-consistent Stellar Evolution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate Roche lobe overflow mass transfer (MT) in eccentric binary systems between stars and compact objects (COs), modeling the coupled evolution of both the star and the orbit due to eccentric MT (eMT) in a self-consistent framework.

TESS Light Curve of the Interacting Binary W Serpentis

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The unusal light curve of the massive eclipsing binary W Ser was recently observed with high S/N and fast cadence by the NASA TESS mission. The TESS light curve records two eclipses and relatively fast variations outside of the eclipses.

Astronomical Data Resources for Binary and Multiple Stars

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2015
Binary stars form a significant part of stellar population. They are registered and observed by a number of methods. This is the reason for variety of present-day resources of astronomical data dealing with binaries and multiples.

The Binary Fraction of B-type Runaway Stars from LAMOST DR8

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Runaway stars are defined as stars that depart from their birth clusters at high peculiar velocities. There are two main mechanisms for the formation of runaway stars, i.e., the binary-supernova scenario (BSS) and the dynamical ejection scenario (DES ...

Ten eclipsing binaries in the Small Magellanic Cloud: fundamental parameters and Cloud distance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present the first results of an observational programme to measure the fundamental parameters of over 100 eclipsing binaries in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC).

Short-period Heartbeat Binaries from TESS Full-frame Images

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We identify 240 short-period ( P ≲ 10 days) binary systems in Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite data, 180 of which are heartbeat binaries. The sample is mostly a mix of A- and B-type stars and primarily includes eclipsing systems, where over 30% of ...

PHOST - Physics of Oscillating Stars (2018)

open access: yes, 2018
Binary systems anchor many of the fundamental relations relied upon in asteroseismology. Masses and radii are rarely constrained better than when measured via orbital dynamics and eclipse depths. Pulsating binaries have much to offer.

Modelling of W UMa-type variable stars

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2009
W Ursae Majoris (W UMa)-type variable stars are over-contact eclipsing binary stars. To understand how these systems form and evolve requires observations spanning many years, followed by detailed models of as many of them as possible.

A Low Metallicity Massive Contact Binary Star System Candidate in WLM Identified by Hubble and James Webb Space Telescope Imaging

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and JWST ultraviolet through near-infrared time series photometric observations of a massive minimal-contact binary candidate in the metal-poor galaxy Wolf–Lundmark–Melotte ( Z  = 0.14 Z _⊙ ).
