The Evolution of Massive Stellar Multiplicity in the Field I. Numerical simulations, long-term evolution and final outcomes

Holly P. Preece, A. Vigna-Gómez, A. S. Rajamuthukumar +2

We investigate how the multiplicity of binary, triple and quadruple star systems changes as the systems evolve from the zero-age main-sequence to the Hubble time. We find the chang…

The mass distribution of stars stripped in binaries: The effect of metallicity

B. Hovis-Afflerbach, Y. Götberg, A. Schootemeijer +4

Stars stripped of their hydrogen-rich envelopes through binary interaction are thought to be responsible for both hydrogen-poor supernovae and the hard ionizing radiation observed…

Development of convective envelopes in massive stars: Implications for gravitational wave sources

Amedeo Romagnolo, Jakub Klencki, Alejandro Vigna-Gomez +1

The structure of stellar envelopes strongly influences the course and outcome of binary mass transfer, in particular of common envelope (CE) evolution. Convective envelopes can mos…

Stripped helium-star and compact object binaries in coeval populations -- predictions based on detailed binary evolution models

Chen Wang, Julia Bodensteiner, Xiao-Tian Xu +9

Massive stars mainly form in close binaries, where their mutual interactions can profoundly alter their evolutionary paths. Evolved binaries consisting of a massive OB-type main-se…

Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): a spectroscopic VLT monitoring survey of massive stars in the SMC

T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner, H. Sana +74

Surveys in the Milky Way and Large Magellanic Cloud revealed that the majority of massive stars will interact with companions during their lives. However, knowledge of the binary p…

X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive Stars at low metallicity VIII. Stellar and wind parameters of newly revealed stripped stars in Be binaries

V. Ramachandran, A. A. C. Sander, D. Pauli +16

On the route towards merging neutron stars and stripped-envelope supernovae, binary population synthesis predicts a large number of post-interaction systems with massive stars that…

Unequal-mass, highly-spinning binary black hole mergers in the stable mass transfer formation channel

Aleksandra Olejak, Jakub Klencki, Xiao-Tian Xu +3

The growing database of gravitational-wave (GW) detections with the binary black holes (BHs) merging in the distant Universe contains subtle insights into their formation scenarios…
