Modern tidal interaction models for rapid binary population synthesis: I. Methods

Veome Kapil, Ilya Mandel, Evgeni Grishin +3

In this work, we present an updated prescription of contemporary tidal dissipation theory adapted for rapid binary population synthesis. Our simplified expressions encode the depen…

Rapid stellar and binary population synthesis with COMPAS: methods paper II

Ilya Mandel, Jeff Riley, Adam Boesky +13

The COMPAS public rapid binary population synthesis code has undergone a number of key improvements since the original COMPAS methods paper (Team COMPAS: Riley et al., 2022) was pu…

Implications of modern mass-loss rates for massive stars

JD Merritt, Simon Stevenson, Andreas Sander +7

Massive stars lose a significant fraction of their mass through stellar winds at various stages of their lives, including on the main sequence, during the red supergiant phase, and…

Surrogate forward models for population inference on compact binary mergers

Jeff Riley, Ilya Mandel

Rapidly growing catalogs of compact binary mergers from advanced gravitational-wave detectors allow us to explore the astrophysics of massive stellar binaries. Merger observations…

Chemically Homogeneous Evolution: A rapid population synthesis approach

Jeff Riley, Ilya Mandel, Pablo Marchant +5

We explore chemically homogeneous evolution (CHE) as a formation channel for massive merging binary black holes (BBHs). We develop methods to include CHE in a rapid binary populati…
