Type IIb supernovae by the grazing envelope evolution

Binyamin Naiman, Efrat Sabach, Avishai Gilkis +1

We simulate the evolution of binary systems with a massive primary star of 15Mo where we introduce an enhanced mass loss due to jets that the secondary star might launch, and find…

Intermediate Luminosity Optical Transients (ILOTs) from merging giants

Ran Segev, Efrat Sabach, Noam Soker

We suggest and study the formation of intermediate luminosity optical transients (ILOTs) from the merger of two cool giant stars. For the two stars to merge when both are in their…

Type IIb supernova progenitors by fatal common envelope evolution

Noam Lohev, Efrat Sabach, Avishai Gilkis +1

From stellar evolution simulations (using MESA) we conclude that the fatal common envelope evolution (CEE) channel for the formation of Type IIb core collapse supernova (SN IIb) pr…

Storing magnetic fields in pre-collapse cores of massive stars

Inbal Peres, Efrat Sabach, Noam Soker

We argue that the radiative zone above the iron core in pre-collapse cores of massive stars can store strong magnetic fields. To reach this conclusion we use the stellar evolutiona…

Jsolated Stars of Low Metallicity

Efrat Sabach

We study the effects of a reduced mass-loss rate on the evolution of low metallicity Jsolated stars, following our earlier classification for angular momentum (J) isolated stars. B…

The limited role of recombination energy in common envelope removal

Aldana Grichener, Efrat Sabach, Noam Soker

We calculate the outward energy transport time by convection and photon diffusion in an inflated common envelope and find this time to be shorter than the envelope expansion time.…
