The S stars' zone of avoidance in the Galactic center

Aleksey Generozov, Hagai B. Perets, Matteo S. Bordoni +9

This paper investigates the origin and orbital evolution of S stars in the Galactic center using models of binary disruption and relaxation processes. We focus on explaining the re…

The origin of hypervelocity white dwarfs in the merger-disruption of He-CO white dwarfs

Hila Glanz, Hagai B. Perets, Aakash Bhat +1

Hypervelocity white dwarfs (HVWDs) are stellar remnants moving at speeds exceeding the Milky Way's escape velocity. The origins of the fastest HVWDs are enigmatic, with proposed fo…

The formation of mini-AGN disks around IMBHs and their dynamical implications

Mor Rozner, Alessandro A. Trani, Johan Samsing +1

This study explores the formation and implications of mini-active galactic nuclei (mAGN) disks around intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) embedded in gas-rich globular/nuclear cl…

Three-Body Binary Formation in Clusters: Analytical Theory

Yonadav Barry Ginat, Hagai B. Perets

Binary formation in clusters through triple encounters between three unbound stars, 'three-body' binary formation, is one of the main dynamical formation processes of binary system…

Soft no more: gas shielding protects soft binaries from disruption in gas-rich environments

Mor Rozner, Hagai B. Perets

Binaries in dense environments are traditionally classified as soft or hard based on their binding energy relative to the kinetic energy of surrounding stars. Heggie's law suggests…

Upper Limits of Ti Decay Emission in Four Nearby Thermonuclear Supernova Remnants

Jianbin Weng, Ping Zhou, Hagai B. Perets +2

To identify progenitors and investigate evidence of He burning, we searched for decay radiation of freshly synthesized Ti in four young nearby thermonuclear supernova remnan…
