Core-Collapse Supernovae in Binaries as the Origin of Galactic Hyper-Runaway Stars

Fraser A. Evans, Mathieu Renzo, Elena Maria Rossi

Several stars detected moving at velocities near to or exceeding the Galactic escape speed likely originated in the Milky Way disc. We quantitatively explore the `binary supernova…

Polluting the pair-instability mass gap for binary black holes through super-Eddington accretion in isolated binaries

L. A. C. van Son, S. E. de Mink, F. S. Broekgaarden +6

The theory for single stellar evolution predicts a gap in the mass distribution of black holes (BHs) between approximately 45-130M, the so-called "pair-instability mass g…

The explosive life of massive binaries

Mathieu Renzo, Emmanouil Zapartas

Massive stars are born predominantly as members of binary (or higher multiplicity) systems, and the presence of a companion can significantly alter their life and final fate. There…

Sensitivity of the lower-edge of the pair instability black hole mass gap to the treatment of time dependent convection

M. Renzo, R. J. Farmer, S. Justham +3

Gravitational-wave detections are now probing the black hole (BH) mass distribution, including the predicted pair-instability mass gap. These data require robust quantitative predi…

Predictions for the hydrogen-free ejecta of pulsational pair-instability supernovae

M. Renzo, R. Farmer, S. Justham +5

Present time-domain astronomy efforts will unveil a variety of rare transients. We focus here on pulsational pair-instability evolution, which can result in signatures observable w…

Properties of OB star-black hole systems derived from detailed binary evolution models

N. Langer, C. Schürmann, K. Stoll +38

The recent gravitational wave measurements have demonstrated the existence of stellar mass black hole binaries. It is essential for our understanding of massive star evolution to i…
