Energy Dissipation through Quasi-Static Tides in White Dwarf Binaries
B. Willems, C. J. Deloye, V. Kalogera
We study tidal interactions in white dwarf binaries in the limiting case of quasi-static tides. The formalism is valid for arbitrary orbital eccentricities and therefore applicable…

Interacting Binaries with Eccentric Orbits II. Secular Orbital Evolution Due To Non-Conservative Mass Transfer
J. F. Sepinsky, B. Willems, V. Kalogera +1
We investigate the secular evolution of the orbital semi-major axis and eccentricity due to mass transfer in eccentric binaries, allowing for both mass and angular momentum loss fr…
