Interacting binaries on the Main Sequence as in-situ tracers of mass transfer efficiency and stability
Koushik Sen, Mathieu Renzo, Harim Jin +8
Understanding the transfer of mass and angular momentum in binary interactions is crucial for modelling the evolution of any interacting binary after the first mass transfer phase.…
A constant upper luminosity limit of cool supergiant stars down to the extremely low metallicity of I Zw 18
Abel Schootemeijer, Ylva Götberg, Norbert Langer +3
Stellar wind mass loss is often assumed to depend on their metallicity . Therefore, evolutionary models of massive stars at lower are able to retain more of their H-rich lay…
The demographics of core-collapse supernovae. The role of binary evolution and CSM interaction
Andrea Ercolino, Harim Jin, Norbert Langer +3
The observational properties of core-collapse supernovae (CC-SNe) are shaped by the envelopes of their progenitors. In massive binary systems, mass-transfer alters the pre-SN struc…
A high fraction of close massive binary stars at low metallicity
H. Sana, T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner +74
At high metallicity, a majority of massive stars have at least one close stellar companion. The evolution of such binaries is subject to strong interaction processes, heavily impac…
Populations of evolved massive binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud II: Predictions from rapid binary evolution
C. Schürmann, X. -T. Xu, N. Langer +10
Massive star evolution plays a crucial role in astrophysics but bares large uncertainties. This problem becomes more severe by the majority of massive stars being born in close bin…
Populations of evolved massive binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud I: Predictions from detailed evolution models
X. -T. Xu, C. Schürmann, N. Langer +13
Context. The majority of massive stars are born with a close binary companion. How this affects their evolution and fate is still largely uncertain, especially at low metallicity.…
Using detailed single star and binary evolution models to probe the large observed luminosity spread of red supergiants in young open star clusters
Chen Wang, Lee Patrick, Abel Schootemeijer +12
Red supergiants (RSGs) represent a late evolutionary stage of massive stars. Recent observations reveal that the observed luminosity range of RSGs in young open clusters is wider t…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): The multiplicity properties and evolution of BAF-type supergiants
L. R. Patrick, D. J. Lennon, F. Najarro +36
Given the uncertain evolutionary status of blue supergiant stars, their multiplicity properties hold vital clues to better understand their origin and evolution. As part of The Bin…
Binarity at Low Metallicity (BLOeM) -- Multiplicity properties of Oe and Be stars
J. Bodensteiner, T. Shenar, H. Sana +40
Rapidly rotating classical OBe stars have been proposed as the products of binary interactions, and the fraction of Be stars with compact companions implies that at least some are.…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): Multiplicity of early B-type supergiants in the Small Magellanic Cloud
N. Britavskiy, L. Mahy, D. J. Lennon +32
The blue supergiant (BSG) domain contains a large variety of stars whose past and future evolutionary paths are still highly uncertain. Since binary interaction plays a crucial rol…
