Development of convective envelopes in massive stars: Implications for gravitational wave sources
Amedeo Romagnolo, Jakub Klencki, Alejandro Vigna-Gomez +1
The structure of stellar envelopes strongly influences the course and outcome of binary mass transfer, in particular of common envelope (CE) evolution. Convective envelopes can mos…
Evolution of stars with 60 and 200 Msun: predictions for WNh stars in the Milky Way
Alex Camilo Gormaz-Matamala, Amedeo Romagnolo, Krzysztof Belczynski
We study in detail the evolution of two massive stars at solar metallicity (), by calculating their final masses, radial expansion, and chemical enrichment. We run evoluti…
Evolution of rotating massive stars adopting a newer, self-consistent wind prescription at SMC metallicity
Alex Camilo Gormaz-Matamala, Jorge Cuadra, Sylvia Ekström +3
We use Geneva-evolution-code to run evolutionary tracks for stellar masses ranging from to at SMC metallicity (). We upgrade the recipe for stellar win…
Unequal-mass, highly-spinning binary black hole mergers in the stable mass transfer formation channel
Aleksandra Olejak, Jakub Klencki, Xiao-Tian Xu +3
The growing database of gravitational-wave (GW) detections with the binary black holes (BHs) merging in the distant Universe contains subtle insights into their formation scenarios…
The enigmatic origin of two dormant BH binaries: Gaia BH1 and Gaia BH2
Iwona Kotko, Sambaran Banerjee, Krzysztof Belczynski
The two systems, namely, Gaia~BH1 and Gaia~BH2, that have been confirmed as dormant (i.e., no X-ray emission detected) black hole (BH) - low-mass star binaries in the latest Gaia m…
On the maximum black hole mass at solar metallicity
Amedeo Romagnolo, Alex C. Gormaz-Matamala, Krzysztof Belczynski
In high metallicity environments the mass that black holes (BHs) can reach just after core-collapse widely depends on how much mass their progenitor stars lose via winds. On one ha…
The Formation of a 70 Msun Black Hole at High Metallicity
K. Belczynski, R. Hirschi, E. A. Kaiser +7
A 70Msun BH was discovered in Milky Way disk in a long period and almost circular detached binary system (LB-1) with a high metallicity 8Msun B star companion. Current consensus on…
