‘Swinging Dipoles’ in Magnetic Close Binary Stars [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1987 AbstractThe recently discovered phenomena in polars - Magnetic Close Binary Stars (MCBS), are discussed. Asynchronous MCBS are on the ‘propeller stage’ (which is analogous to the investigated one for neutron stars), and are synchronizing during ts ≲ 103 yr, being during this stage rapidly evolving, mass ejecting systems.

A transiting companion to the eclipsing binary KIC002856960 [PDF]
, 2012 We present an early result from an automated search of Kepler eclipsing binary systems for circumbinary companions. An intriguing tertiary signal has been discovered in the short period eclipsing binary KIC002856960. This third body leads to transit-like

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.

Detached white-dwarf close-binary stars -- CV's extended family [PDF]
, 1999 I review detached binaries consisting of white dwarfs with either other white dwarfs or low mass main-sequence stars in tight orbits around them. Orbital periods have been measured for 15 white dwarf/white dwarf systems and 22 white dwarf/M dwarf systems.

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

Microlensing of close binary stars [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009 The gravity due to a multiple-mass system has a remarkable gravitational effect: the extreme magnification of background light sources along extended so-called caustic lines. This property has been the channel for some remarkable astrophysical discoveries over the past decade, including the detection and characterisation of extra-solar planets, the ...

, 2003 In the present review we summarize direct and indirect evidence that the massive close binary frequency is very large. We then discuss the binary evolutionary processes and we present a general massive close binary evolutionary scheme.

Effects of Close Binary Evolution on the Main-sequence Morphology of Young Star Clusters [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Star clusters are the building blocks of galaxies. They are composed of stars of nearly equal age and chemical composition, allowing us to use them as chronometers and as testbeds for gauging stellar evolution.
