On Bimodality in the Eccentricity Distribution of Galactic Double Neutron Stars
Aldana Grichener, Paul Disberg, Ryosuke Hirai +1
The detection of Galactic double neutron stars (DNSs) through pulsar timing offers a unique opportunity to probe massive stellar and binary evolution. The observed DNS population e…
Search For a Counterpart to the Subsolar Mass Gravitational Wave Candidate S251112cm
Nicholas Vieira, Noah Franz, Bhagya Subrayan +49
The recent candidate gravitational-wave (GW) alert from a compact object merger involving at least one subsolar mass (SSM) object has prompted questions about their origins. S25111…
Unraveling the Origin of Unequal Mass Gravitational Wave Events: Insights from a Galactic High Mass X-ray Binary
Neev Shah, Mathieu Renzo, Koushik Sen +2
The catalog of Gravitational Wave (GW) events is rapidly growing, providing key insights into the evolution of massive binaries and compact object formation. However, a key challen…
Interacting binaries on the Main Sequence as in-situ tracers of mass transfer efficiency and stability
Koushik Sen, Mathieu Renzo, Harim Jin +8
Understanding the transfer of mass and angular momentum in binary interactions is crucial for modelling the evolution of any interacting binary after the first mass transfer phase.…
Optimizing Kilonova Searches: A Case Study of the Type IIb SN 2025ulz in the Localization Volume of the Low-Significance Gravitational Wave Event S250818k
Noah Franz, Bhagya Subrayan, Charles D. Kilpatrick +54
Kilonovae, the ultraviolet/optical/infrared counterparts to binary neutron star mergers, are an exceptionally rare class of transients. Optical follow-up campaigns are plagued by c…
Nuclear Neural Networks: Emulating Late Burning Stages in Core Collapse Supernova Progenitors
Aldana Grichener, Mathieu Renzo, Wolfgang E. Kerzendorf +7
One of the main challenges in modeling massive stars to the onset of core collapse is the computational bottleneck of nucleosynthesis during advanced burning stages. The number of…
Circumbinary disks in post common envelope binary systems with compact objects
Lotem Unger, Aldana Grichener, Noam Soker
We conduct a population synthesis study using the binary population synthesis code compas to explore the formation of circumbinary disks (CBDs) following the common envelope evolut…
Mergers of compact objects with cores of massive stars: evolutionary pathways, r-process nucleosynthesis and multi-messenger signatures
Aldana Grichener
The study of massive binary systems has steadily progressed over the past decades, with increasing focus on their evolution, interactions and mergers, driven by improvements in com…
Common envelope jets supernova with thermonuclear outburst progenitor for the enigmatic supernova remnant W49B
Aldana Grichener, Noam Soker
We suggest a common envelope jets supernova (CEJSN) origin to the supernova remnant (SNR) W49B where jets launched by a neutron star (NS) that collapsed to a black hole (BH) togeth…
Mergers of neutron stars and black holes with cores of giant stars: a population synthesis study
Aldana Grichener
We perform population synthesis of massive binaries to study the mergers of neutron stars (NSs) and black holes (BHs) with the cores of their giant secondaries during common envelo…
The Implications of Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II on the Common Envelope Jets Supernova r-process Scenario
Aldana Grichener, Noam Soker
We show that the common envelope jets supernova (CEJSN) r-process scenario is compatible with very recent observationally determined properties of the stars in the ultra faint dwar…

Aldana Grichener, Noam Soker
We study the basic properties of three possible r-process scenarios (sites) and compare them to recent observations and theoretical simulations. We find that the common envelope je…
