The role of mass transfer efficiency in stability criteria: Implementation in SEVN and a test on blue stragglers and binary compact objects
M. Echeveste, G. J. Escobar, G. Iorio +12
Context: The stability of mass transfer through Roche-lobe overflow plays a key role in shaping the outcome of binary interactions. However, the criterion for mass transfer stabili…
Stellar rotation and binaries in open clusters with Gaia DR3
Elena Pancino, Elisabetta Reggiani, Silvia Marinoni +14
Stellar rotation is a fundamental ingredient in shaping the evolution of stars and it can also be used to trace past stellar interactions. Yet, systematic studies of stellar rotati…
Survey of Surveys. II. Stellar parameters for 23 millions of stars
A. Turchi, E. Pancino, A. Avdeeva +16
In the current panorama of large surveys, the vast amount of data obtained with different methods, data types, formats, and stellar samples, is making an efficient use of the avail…
AstroSat/UVIT Study of NGC 663: First detection of Be+sdOB systems in a young star cluster
Sneha Nedhath, Sharmila Rani, Annapurni Subramaniam +1
Be stars are rapidly rotating stars surrounded by a disc; however, the origin of these stars remains unclear. Mass and angular momentum transfer in close binaries account for the r…
Serendipitous detection of an intense X-ray flare in the weak-line T Tauri star KM Ori with SRG/eROSITA
Savithri H. Ezhikode, Hema Anilkumar, R. Arun +8
Weak-line T Tauri stars (WTTS) exhibit X-ray flares, likely resulting from magnetic reconnection that heats the stellar plasma to very high temperatures. These flares are difficult…
