COMMISSION 42: CLOSE BINARY STARS [PDF]
Two meetings of interest to close binaries took place during the reporting period: A full day session on short-period binary stars – mostly CV's – (Miloneet al. 2008) during the 2006 AAS Spring meeting in Calgary and the very broadly designed IAU Symposium No.

Hypervelocity stars from young stellar clusters in the Galactic Centre [PDF]
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.

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 ...

Super slowly spinning stars in close binaries
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

Computation of gravitational waves from inspiraling binary neutron stars in quasiequilibrium circular orbits : Formulation and calibration [PDF]
Gravitational waves from binary neutron stars in quasiequilibrium circular orbits are computed using an approximate method which we propose in this paper. In the first step of this method, we prepare general relativistic irrotational binary neutron stars

CLOSE BINARY SYSTEMS ON LATE EVOLUTIONARY STAGES
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.

Evidence for Prolonged Main Sequence Stellar Evolution of F Stars in close binaries [PDF]
Binary F stars exhibit large brightness anomaly, which is defined here as the difference between the absolute magnitude from the uvby photometry and the actual absolute magnitude of the star.

Close encounters of star–black hole binaries with single stars
ABSTRACT Multibody dynamical interactions of binaries with other objects are one of the main driving mechanisms for the evolution of star clusters. It is thus important to bring our understanding of three-body interactions beyond the commonly employed point-particle approximation.

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

Evolution of Mass Functions of Coeval Stars through Wind Mass Loss and Binary Interactions [PDF]
Accurate determinations of stellar mass functions and ages of stellar populations are crucial to much of astrophysics. We analyse the evolution of stellar mass functions of coeval main sequence stars including all relevant aspects of single- and binary ...
