HOney-BeeS II. Be-X-ray binaries as testbeds for spectroscopic studies of Be stars

S. Janssens, H. Sana, T. Shenar +2

The majority of massive classical Be stars are thought to be binary interactions products. Their rapid rotation and often strong, variable, and emission-line dominated spectrum, ma…

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…

Two unseen massive white dwarf candidates in close binaries

Yuta Shiraishi, Kenta Hotokezaka, Kento Masuda +10

We report the discovery of two binary systems, each consisting of a slightly bloated G-type main-sequence star and an unseen companion, identified through photometric data from TES…

Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): Bayesian inference of natal kicks from inert black hole binaries

R. Willcox, P. Marchant, A. Vigna-Gómez +15

Context. The emerging population of inert black hole binaries (BHBs) provides a unique opportunity to constrain black hole (BH) formation physics. These systems are composed of a s…

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.…
