Magnetic Braking at work in binaries
Walter van Rensbergen, Jean Pierre de Greve
Our binary evolutionary code predicted until now the position of both stars in the HRD, the characteristics of the accretion disk around the gainer in the case that there is enough…
Blue supergiant progenitor models of Type II supernovae
D. Vanbeveren, N. Mennekens, W. Van Rensbergen +1
In the present paper we show that within all the uncertainties that govern the process of Roche lobe overflow in Case Br type massive binaries, it can not be excluded that a signif…
Spin-up and hot spots can drive mass out of a binary
W. Van Rensbergen, J. P. De Greve, C. De Loore +1
The observed distribution of periods and mass ratios of Algols with a B type primary at birth was updated. Conservative evolution fails to produce the large fraction with a high ma…
On the origin and evolutionary state of RZ Cas, KO Aql and S Equ
N. Mennekens, J. -P. De Greve, W. Van Rensbergen +1
Aims. Determination of the present evolutionary state and the restrictions on the initial mass ratios of RZ Cas, KO Aql and S Equ. Methods. Comparison of mass gaining stars with ev…
Mass and angular momentum loss during RLOF in Algols
W. Van Rensbergen, C. de Loore, D. Vanbeveren
We present a set of evolutionary computations for binaries with a B-type primary at birth. Some liberal computations including loss of mass and angular momentum during binary evolu…
