1D stellar mergers: entropy sorting and PyMMAMS

open access: yes
Stellar multiple systems are the norm, not the exception, with many systems undergoing interaction phases during their lifetimes. A subset of these interactions can lead to stellar mergers, where the two components of a stellar binary system come close enough to coalesce into a single star.

GW231123: Likely a Product of Successive Mergers from ∼10 Stellar-mass Black Holes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
GW231123 is an exceptionally massive binary black hole (BBH) merger with unusually high component spins. Such extreme properties challenge conventional stellar evolution models, predicting a black hole (BH) mass gap due to pair-instability supernovae. We

The Time Evolution of Fast Flavor Crossings in Postmerger Disks around a Black Hole Remnant

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We postprocess a three-dimensional, general relativistic, full transport neutrino radiation magnetohydrodynamics simulation of the black-hole-accretion disk-wind system thought to be a potential outcome of the GW170817 merger to investigate the presence ...

The Structure and Evolution of a High-mass Stellar Merger in the Hertzsprung Gap

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Post-main-sequence binary mergers are a common evolutionary pathway for massive stars, but the effects of merging on the long-term structure and evolution of the resulting star are a matter of active debate.

Hydrodynamics of Stellar Mergers and the Formation of Blue Stragglers

open access: yes, 1995
The hydrodynamics of stellar collisions and mergers is discussed in the context of blue straggler formation. Emphasis is placed on the very important question of hydrodynamic mixing during the merger process. Recent results of three-dimensional hydrodynamic calculations suggest that the merger remnants produced by stellar collisions are typically {\em ...

Heavy Seeds and the First Black Holes: Insights from the BRAHMA Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
From the luminous quasars at z ∼ 6 to the recent z ∼ 9–11 active galactic nuclei (AGN) revealed by JWST, observations of the earliest black hole (BH) populations can provide unique constraints on BH evolution.
