The Stellar Winds Atlas II: Black Hole Formation at Solar Metallicity

Amedeo Romagnolo, Floor S. Broekgaarden, Alex C. Gormaz-Matamala +7

Stellar winds are a primary source of uncertainty in predicting the masses of black holes (BHs) from massive stars. At solar metallicity, theoretical models lead to widely divergen…

A Framework for Linking Pre- and Post-Common Envelope Binary Properties with Star Clusters: The First Demonstration with a Massive White Dwarf+M Dwarf Binary in Alessi 12

Steffani M. Grondin, Maria R. Drout, Jason Nordhaus +12

Common envelope (CE) evolution is a critical phase in the lives of binary stars, producing close binaries that are progenitors of type Ia supernovae and gravitational wave sources.…

The Stellar Winds Atlas I: Current uncertainties in mass-loss rates

Amedeo Romagnolo, Floor S. Broekgaarden, Konstantinos Antoniadis +1

Stellar winds are a major source of uncertainty in understanding the life and deaths of massive stars. Across studies in the field, prescriptions for stellar winds differ substanti…

Stellar Black Holes and Compact Stellar Remnants

Guglielmo Costa, Martyna Chruślińska, Jakub Klencki +4

The recent observations of gravitational waves (GWs) by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration (LVK) have provided a new opportunity for studying our Universe. By detecting several mer…

Population synthesis of accreting white dwarfs: Rates and evolutionary pathways of H and He novae

Alex J. Kemp, Amanda I. Karakas, Andrew R. Casey +5

Novae are some of the most commonly detected optical transients and have the potential to provide valuable information about binary evolution. Binary population synthesis codes hav…

Common-Envelope Episodes that lead to Double Neutron Star formation

Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Morgan MacLeod, Coenraad J. Neijssel +6

Close double neutron stars have been observed as Galactic radio pulsars, while their mergers have been detected as gamma-ray bursts and gravitational-wave sources. They are believe…

The effect of the metallicity-specific star formation history on double compact object mergers

Coenraad J. Neijssel, Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Simon Stevenson +7

We investigate the impact of uncertainty in the metallicity-specific star formation rate over cosmic time on predictions of the rates and masses of double compact object mergers ob…
