A peculiar object in M51: fuzzy star cluster or a background galaxy?
R. A. Scheepmaker, H. J. G. L. M. Lamers, S. S. Larsen +1
Aims: We study a peculiar object with a projected position close to the nucleus of M51. It is unusually large for a star cluster in M51 and we therefore investigate the three most…
Constraining the neutron star equation of state using quiescent low-mass X-ray binaries
P. G. Jonker
Chandra or XMM-Newton observations of quiescent low-mass X-ray binaries can provide important constraints on the equation of state of neutron stars. The mass and radius of the neut…
Star Clusters in the Nearby Late-Type Galaxy NGC 1311
Paul B. Eskridge, Richard de Grijs, Peter Anders +3
Ultraviolet, optical and near infrared images of the nearby (D ~ 5.5 Mpc) SBm galaxy NGC 1311, obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope, reveal a small population of 13 candidate s…
Can low metallicity binaries avoid merging?
S. E. de Mink, M. Cottaar, O. R. Pols
Rapid mass transfer in a binary system can drive the accreting star out of thermal equilibrium, causing it to expand. This can lead to a contact system, strong mass loss from the s…
Binaries at Low Metallicity: ranges for case A, B and C mass transfer
S. E. de Mink, O. R. Pols, S. -C. Yoon
The evolution of single stars at low metallicity has attracted a large interest, while the effect of metallicity on binary evolution remains still relatively unexplored. We study t…
Critically rotating stars in binaries - an unsolved problem -
S. E. de Mink, O. R. Pols, E. Glebbeek
In close binaries mass and angular momentum can be transferred from one star to the other during Roche-lobe overflow. The efficiency of this process is not well understood and cons…
