Hyperaccreting Magnetised Neutron Stars inside Rotating Massive Envelopes: Low-Power Jets and Precursor Flares
Patrick Chi-Kit Cheong, Christopher L. Fryer, David Radice
The engulfment of a neutron star (NS) by a massive companion initiates a highly dynamic common-envelope (CE) evolution phase. As the NS spirals into the dense stellar core, it is s…
Hyperaccreting Neutron Stars inside Massive Envelopes: The Implausibility of Thorne-Żytkow Objects
Patrick Chi-Kit Cheong, David Radice, Christopher L. Fryer
The evolution of neutron stars (NSs) embedded within massive stellar envelopes is a critical phase in binary stellar evolution, potentially leading to the formation of Thorne-Żytko…
Production of heavy -elements and Ti in Cas A: comparison to abundances from 1D core-collapse supernova models and evidence for Carbon-Oxygen shell mergers
Luca Boccioli, Lorenzo Roberti, Chris L Fryer +3
The merger between the carbon (C) and oxygen (O) shells hours to days before the collapse of a massive star significantly changes its nucleosynthesis, which is reflected in the ele…
Angular momentum drives proton-rich nucleosynthesis in hyperaccreting neutron stars in common envelopes
Alexander D. Hall-Smith, Sophie E. D. Abrahams, Alison M. Laird +3
Interacting binaries can produce a wide range of exotic systems, including X-ray binaries and merging neutron stars, through a mass transfer phase called Common Envelope (CE) evolu…
