The Common Envelope Evolution Outcome. III. the Improvement of Stellar Binding Energy with the Envelope Residual
Lifu Zhang, Hongwei Ge, Dylan Hebrail +7
Common-envelope evolution (CEE) is a key process in the evolution of close binary systems. Many important astrophysical objects and evolutionary stages are closely related to CEE,…
Mass-Orbital Period Distribution of Massive White Dwarfs Formed Through Stable Mass Transfer
Rizhong Zheng, Hongwei Ge, Christopher A Tout +10
White dwarfs (WDs) in binaries can form through either the stable mass-transfer process or common envelope evolution (CEE). Compared to CEE, the stable mass-transfer process can le…
Adiabatic Mass Loss In Binary Stars. VI. Massive Helium Binary Stars
Lifu Zhang, Hongwei Ge, Zhenwei Li +6
The stability of binary mass transfer is a critical problem for binary evolution. We systematically calculate the adiabatic mass-loss model for naked helium stars with masses rangi…
The relation between helium white dwarf mass and orbital period under two types of opacity
Jian Mou, Hai-Liang Chen, Dengkai Jiang +5
Helium white dwarfs (He WDs) are end products of low-mass red giant donors in close binary systems via stable mass transfer or common envelope evolution. At the end of stable mass…
The Red Supergiant Progenitor of the Type II Supernova 2024abfl
Jingxiao Luo, Lifu Zhang, Bing-Qiu Chen +9
Linkage between core-collapse supernovae (SNe) and their progenitors is not fully understood and ongoing effort of searching and identifying the progenitors is needed. $\mathrm{SN\…
A potential mass-gap black hole in a wide binary with a circular orbit
Wang Song, Zhao Xinlin, Feng Fabo +28
Mass distribution of black holes identified through X-ray emission suggests a paucity of black holes in the mass range of 3 to 5 solar masses. Modified theories have been devised t…
Adiabatic Mass Loss in Binary Stars. V. Effects of Metallicity and Nonconservative Mass Transfer -- Application in High Mass X-ray Binaries
Hongwei Ge, Christopher Adam Tout, Xuefei Chen +5
Binary stars are responsible for many unusual astrophysical phenomena, including some important explosive cosmic events. The stability criteria for rapid mass transfer and common-e…
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…
The Common Envelope Evolution Outcome. II. Short Orbital Period Hot Subdwarf B Binaries Reveal a Clear Picture
Hongwei Ge, Christopher A Tout, Ronald F Webbink +6
The common envelope evolution (CEE) is vital in forming short orbital period compact binaries. It covers many objects, such as double compact merging binaries, type Ia supernovae p…
