The Formation of Close Binary Stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2001 I review the possible formation mechanisms of close binary stars. The formation of close binary systems is problematic in that there is no theory that does not encounter significant difficulties or unknowns. Fission does not appear to occur in stars.

The 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

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Orbital Decay in an Accreting and Eclipsing 13.7 Minute Orbital Period Binary with a Luminous Donor
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We report the discovery of ZTF J0127+5258, a compact mass-transferring binary with an orbital period of 13.7 minutes. The system contains a white dwarf accretor, which likely originated as a post–common envelope carbon–oxygen (CO) white dwarf, and a warm

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Close-in companions to contact binary stars
, 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.

Search for Close Binary Evolved Stars
, 1988 We report on a search for short -period binary systems composed of pairs of evolved stars. The search is being carried out concurrently with a program to characterize the kinematical properties of two different samples of stars.

Short-period Heartbeat Binaries from TESS Full-frame Images
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesWe 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 ...

Relativistic numerical model for close neutron-star binaries [PDF]
Physical Review D, 1996 We describe a numerical method for calculating the (3+1) dimensional general relativistic hydrodynamics of a coalescing neutron-star binary system. The relativistic field equations are solved at each time slice with a spatial 3-metric chosen to be conformally flat.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...
