It has to be cool: on supergiant progenitors of binary black hole mergers from common-envelope evolution
J. Klencki, G. Nelemans, A. G. Istrate +1
Common-envelope (CE) evolution in massive binary systems is thought to be one of the most promising channels for the formation of compact binary mergers. In the case of merging bin…

Massive donors in interacting binaries: effect of metallicity
Jakub Klencki, Gijs Nelemans, Alina G. Istrate +1
Metallicity is known to significantly affect the radial expansion of a massive star: the lower the metallicity, the more compact the star, especially during its post-MS evolution.…
