Binary interactions on the calibrations of star formation rate [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012 Using the evolutionary population synthesis (EPS) models with and without binary interactions (BIs), we present L_Ha, L_[OII], L_{i,UV} and L_FIR for Burst, S0, Sa-Sd and Irr galaxies, and present the calibrations of star formation rate (SFR) in terms of these diagnostics.

Dynamically Forming Extremely Low-mass White Dwarf Binaries in Wide Orbits
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The detection of a 0.2 M _⊙ extremely low-mass white dwarf (EW) in a wide orbit ( P _orb ≈ 450 days) with a 1.1 M _⊙ main-sequence companion, KIC 8145411, challenges our current understanding of how EWs form. The traditional channel for EW formation, via

Adiabatic Mass Loss in Binary Stars. III. From the Base of the Red Giant Branch to the Tip of the Asymptotic Giant Branch [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2020 The distinguishing feature of the evolution of close binary stars is the role played by the mass exchange between the component stars. Whether or not the mass transfer is dynamically stable is one of the essential questions in binary evolution.

Binary Interactions in Star Clusters [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988 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 ...

A Mini Atlas of H-Band Spectra of Southern Symbiotic Stars
Galaxies, 2023 Symbiotic stars are interacting binary systems composed of an evolved star (generally a late-type red giant) and a degenerate or dwarf companion in orbit close enough for mass transfer to occur. Understanding the status of the late-type star is important

Two-wind interactions in binaries with two orbiting giant stars [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021 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.

The Interacting Binary Be Star HR 2142 [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2002 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.

Strong Variability in AzV 493, an Extreme Oe-type Star in the SMC
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 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.

Stringent upper limit on Be star fractions produced by binary interaction [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 Context. Binary evolution can result in fast-rotating stars through accretion of angular momentum during mass-transfer phases. These fast-rotating stars are predicted to be observable as Be stars. Current models struggle to produce a satisfactory description of Be star populations, even though numerous pieces of observational evidence indicate that the

Binary Formation and Interactions with Field Stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985 Binaries provide an energy source in dense stellar systems. Exothermic gravitational interactions in star clusters can play a role similar to that of nuclear reactions in single stars. These gravitational interactions can be modeled in a laboratory setting, in the form of numerical binary-single star and binary-binary scattering experiments ...
