Searching for candidates of coalescing binary black holes formed through chemically homogeneous evolution in GWTC-3
Ying Qin, Yuan-Zhu Wang, Simone S. Bavera +10
The LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA (LVK) collaboration has announced 90 coalescing binary black holes (BBHs) with to date, however, the origin of their formation cha…
The formation of the stripped envelope type II b Supernova progenitors: Rotation, Metallicity and Overshooting
Gang Long, Hanfeng Song, Georges Meynet +6
Type IIb supernovae are believed to originate from core-collapse progenitors having kept only a very thin hydrogen envelope. We aim to explore how some physical factors, such as ro…
Close binary evolution based on Gaia DR2: the origin of late WC-type Wolf-Rayet stars with low luminosity
Weiguo Peng, Hanfeng Song, Georges Meynet +8
The observed late-type WC Wolf-Rayet stars (WC7-9) with low luminosity below in the HR diagram cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by the evolutionary…
On the Angular Momentum Transport Efficiency within the Star Constrained from Gravitational-wave Observations
Ying Qin, Yuan-Zhu Wang, Dong-Hong Wu +2
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration (LVC) have recently reported in GWTC-2.1 eight additional candidate events with a probability of astrophysical origin grea…
Massive stars evolution: feedbacks in low-Z environment
Sylvia Ekström, Georges Meynet, Cyril Georgy +3
Massive stars are the drivers of the chemical evolution of dwarf galaxies. We review here the basics of massive star evolution and the specificities of stellar evolution in low-Z e…
Massive stars, successes and challenges
Georges Meynet, André Maeder, Cyril Georgy +4
We give a brief overview of where we stand with respect to some old and new questions bearing on how massive stars evolve and end their lifetime. We focus on the following key poin…
