Two-Dimensional Radiation-Hydrodynamic Simulations of Luminous Red Novae

Anthony Kirilov, Diego Calderón, Ondřej Pejcha +1

Luminous Red Novae (LRNe) are transients associated with mass ejection during stellar mergers and common envelope evolution (CEE). LRNe have the potential to illuminate the poorly…

On the effects of radiation on mass transfer in binary stars

Jakub Cehula, Ondřej Pejcha

Mass transfer (MT) in binary systems is a common evolutionary process that can significantly affect the structure, evolution, and final fate of both stars. In modeling MT hydrodyna…

Journey to the center of the common envelope evolution. Inner dynamics of the post-dynamical inspiral

Damien Gagnier, Ondrej Pejcha

Three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of common envelope evolution are often terminated soon after the initial dynamical plunge of the companion transitions into a long-last…

Distinguishing between light curves of ellipsoidal variables with massive dark companions, contact binaries, and semidetached binaries using principal component analysis

Milan Pešta, Ondřej Pejcha

Photometric methods for identifying dark companion binaries - binary systems hosting quiescent black holes and neutron stars - operate by detecting ellipsoidal variations caused by…

Driving asymmetric red supergiants winds with binary interactions

Camille Landri, Ondřej Pejcha

Massive stars in the red supergiant (RSG) phase are known to undergo strong mass loss through winds and observations indicate that a substantial part of this mass loss could be dri…

Post-dynamical inspiral phase of common envelope evolution. The role of magnetic fields

Damien Gagnier, Ondrej Pejcha

During common envelope evolution, an initially weak magnetic field may undergo amplification by interacting with spiral density waves and turbulence generated in the stellar envelo…
