A magnetic tertiary in the most massive compact triple-star system

S. Hubrig, A. Vigna-Gómez, S. P. Järvinen +2

The system TIC 470710327 is comprised of three main-sequence OB stars, with an inner compact 1.10 d eclipsing binary and a non-eclipsing tertiary on a 52.04 d orbit. With the terti…

Evidence of polar and ultralow supernova kicks from the orbits of Be X-ray binaries

Ruggero Valli, Selma E. de Mink, Stephen Justham +7

Supernovae, the explosive deaths of massive stars, create heavy elements and form black holes and neutron stars. These compact objects often receive a velocity at formation, a "kic…

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.…

The Evolution of Massive Stellar Multiplicity in the Field I. Numerical simulations, long-term evolution and final outcomes

Holly P. Preece, A. Vigna-Gómez, A. S. Rajamuthukumar +2

We investigate how the multiplicity of binary, triple and quadruple star systems changes as the systems evolve from the zero-age main-sequence to the Hubble time. We find the chang…

On the formation history of Galactic double neutron stars

Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Coenraad J. Neijssel, Simon Stevenson +9

Double neutron stars (DNSs) have been observed as Galactic radio pulsars, and the recent discovery of gravitational waves from the DNS merger GW170817 adds to the known DNS populat…
