Stars with Plumbing Issues: The Multi-component Ejecta of Common Envelopes

Sarah V. Borges, Philip Chang

Common-envelope evolution (CEE) is one of the major open problems in binary stellar evolution, even though it is the primary channel for forming close binaries with at least one co…

Double White Dwarf Mergers as Progenitors of Long-Period Transients

Manuel Malheiro, Sarah V. Borges, Jaziel G. Coelho +6

There is an ongoing discussion in the literature on the nature of long-period transients (LPTs), radio-emitting sources with periods ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands of s…

A Correlation Between the Final Separation and Mass Ratio from Common Envelope Simulations

Sarah V. Borges

Analytical models for common envelope evolution (CEE), particularly the energy formalism, are used in binary population synthesis to predict post-CEE configurations. This formalism…

Envelope Ejection and the Transition to Homologous Expansion in Common-Envelope Events

Vinaya Valsan, Sarah V. Borges, Logan Prust +1

We conduct a long-timescale (d) 3-D simulation of a common-envelope event with a red giant and a main sequence companion, using the moving-mes…

A magnetic white-dwarf accretion model for the anomalous X-ray pulsar 4U 0142+61

Sarah V. Borges, Claudia V. Rodrigues, Jaziel G. Coelho +2

The quiescent emission of the anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 4U 0142+61 extends over a broad range of energy, from radio up to hard X-rays. In particular, this object is unique among…
