Adiabatic Mass Loss In Binary Stars. IV. Low and Intermediate Mass Helium Binary Stars
Lifu Zhang, Hongwei Ge, Xuefei Chen +1
The unstable mass transfer situation in binary systems will asymptotically cause the adiabatic expansion of the donor star and finally lead to the common envelope phase. This proce…
