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

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 ...

V1507 CYGNI (HD187399): A Highly Evolved, Enigmatic Interacting Binary System with an Eccentric Orbit

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The properties of the interacting, eccentric orbit binary V1507 Cyg (HD187399) are examined with spectra that cover wavelengths from 0.63–0.68 μ m. The spectrum of the brightest star is similar to that of the B8 I star β Ori, although with absorption ...

NY Bootes: An Active Deep and Low-mass-ratio Contact Binary with a Cool Companion in a Hierarchical Triple System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The first detailed photometric and spectroscopic study of G-type short-period binary NY Boo is presented. The radial velocity curve was obtained by the cross-correlation function (CCF) method based on LAMOST and SDSS spectra, which derived its mass ratio

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

The evolution of massive binary systems [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian 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.

The Evolution of the Supersoft X-Ray Source WX Cen Dominated by Magnetic Wind

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
WX Cen is most likely one of the Galactic counterparts of compact binary supersoft X-ray sources as a member of the V Sagittae class, in which mass is transferred from a donor secondary to a massive white dwarf primary via an accretion disk. Based on the

Multifilter Time-series Observations of Eleven Blue Short-period ATLAS Variable Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Eleven periodic variable stars were observed photometrically through two to four filters from the set UBVR _C I _C . Phase-folded data for each star cover full cycles of variation.

From a Dinuclear System to Close Binary Cosmic Objects

open access: yesAstronomy, 2023
Applying the ideas from microscopic objects to macroscopic stellar and galactic systems, the evolution of compact di-stars and di-galaxies is studied in the mass asymmetry coordinate. The formation of stable binary systems is analyzed.

ELM of ELM-WD: An Extremely-low-mass Hot Star Discovered in LAMOST Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The extremely-low-mass white dwarfs (ELM WDs) and pre-ELM WDs are helium-core white dwarfs with mass

POSYDON: A General-purpose Population Synthesis Code with Detailed Binary-evolution Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Most massive stars are members of a binary or a higher-order stellar system, where the presence of a binary companion can decisively alter their evolution via binary interactions. Interacting binaries are also important astrophysical laboratories for the
