Eta Carinae in the Context of the Most Massive Stars [PDF]
Eta Car, with its historical outbursts, visible ejecta and massive, variable winds, continues to challenge both observers and modelers. In just the past five years over 100 papers have been published on this fascinating object.

Binary Interactions in Star Clusters [PDF]
Over the past decade, a very considerable amount of effort in stellar dynamics has gone into the study of interactions between binary systems and other stars. The asymptotic analytic results obtained by Heggie (1975) for binary-single star encounters have been largely confirmed and extended by later numerical experiments (Hills 1975, Hut and Bahcall ...

Strong Variability in AzV 493, an Extreme Oe-type Star in the SMC
We present 18 yr of OGLE photometry together with spectra obtained over 12 yr revealing that the early Oe star AzV 493 shows strong photometric (Δ I < 1.2 mag) and spectroscopic variability with a dominant, 14.6 yr pattern and ∼40 day oscillations.

How unique is Plaskett's star? A search for organized magnetic fields in short period, interacting or post-interaction massive binary systems [PDF]
Amongst O-type stars with detected magnetic fields, the fast rotator in the close binary called Plaskett's star shows a variety of unusual properties.

The impact of binary-star yields on the spectra of galaxies [PDF]
One of the complexities in modelling integrated spectra of stellar populations is the effect of interacting binary stars besides Type Ia supernovae (SNeIa).

The Interacting Binary Be Star HR 2142 [PDF]
AbstractCurrent information on the nature of the HR 2142 system is presented. The circumstellar material (CSM) including the mass flow toward and away from the mass-gaining B star has been studied from ∼ 100 IUESWP HIRES images obtained from 1979–95 and ground-based CCD data from KPNO acquired between 1985–2001.

Two-wind interactions in binaries with two orbiting giant stars [PDF]
ABSTRACT Some red giant envelopes present spiral structures (seen either in dust-scattered stellar continuum or in molecular line emission), the most striking example probably being AFGL 3068. This object has been modeled (both analytically and numerically) in terms of a wind ejected from a star in orbit around a binary companion.

Hypervelocity binary stars: smoking gun of massive binary black holes [PDF]
The hypervelocity stars recently found in the Galactic halo are expelled from the Galactic center through interactions between binary stars and the central massive black hole or between single stars and a hypothetical massive binary black hole. In this paper, we demonstrate that binary stars can be ejected out of the Galactic center with velocities up ...

Interactions in Massive Binary Stars as Seen by Interferometry [PDF]
With the advent of large-collecting-area instruments, the number of objects that can be reached by optical long-baseline interferometry is steadily increasing. We present here a few results on massive binary stars, showing the interest of using this technique for studying the insight of interactions in these systems.

I review the issues related to the appearance of hyperons in neutron star matter, focusing in particular on the problem of the maximum mass supported by hyperonic equations of state. I discuss the general mechanism that leads to the formation of hyperons
