Close-in companions to contact binary stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
W UMa-type contact binaries are composed of two late-type main-sequence stars, where both components are filling their critical Roche Lobes and sharing a common convective envelope.

Tidal effects in close binary stars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1984
This review addresses the question of what can be learned about the stellar interiors from the study of the tidal effects in close binary stars.

Super slowly spinning stars in close binaries

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2023
ABSTRACT Stars in short-period binaries typically have spins that are aligned and synchronized with the orbit of their companion. In triple systems, however, the combination of spin and orbital precession can cause the star’s rotation to evolve to a highly misaligned and sub-synchronous equilibrium known as a Cassini state. We identify a

42. Close Binary Stars [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the International Astronomical Union, 1985
Research on close binary systems has continued at a high level during the past triennium, although the rate of growth is noticeably slower – probably reflecting the cutbacks in funds to which many of us are subject. There have also been changes of emphasis within the field, which are commented on in the pages that follow.

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.

Close Binary Stars in Planetary Nebulae through Gaia EDR3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
This article belongs to the Proceedings of The 4th XoveTIC Conference[Abstract] The aim of this work is to search for evidence of close binary stars associated with planetary nebulae (ionized stellar envelopes in expansion) by mining the astronomical ...

Observations of binary stars with the differential speckle survey instrument. IV. Observations of Kepler, CoRoT, and Hipparcos stars from the Gemini North Telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present the results of 71 speckle observations of binary and unresolved stars, most of which were observed with the DSSI speckle camera at the Gemini North Telescope in 2012 July. The main purpose of the run was to obtain diffraction-limited images of

Close binary central stars and the abundance discrepancy - new extreme objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent work (Corradi et al. 2015, Jones et al. 2016) has shown that the phenomenon of extreme abundance discrepancies, where recombination line abundances exceed collisionally excited line abundances by factors of 10 or more, seem to be strongly ...

Orbital Period Variations in HT Cas: Evidence for Additional Angular Momentum Loss and a High-eccentricity Giant Planet

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a timing study of the short-period eclipsing cataclysmic variable (CV) HT Cas. Based on new eclipse times derived from our photometric monitoring and archival optical data, combined with historical timings, spanning ∼42 yr, we detect a secular
