Structure and evolution of high-mass stellar mergers
Evert Glebbeek, Evghenii Gaburov, Simon Portegies Zwart +1
In young dense clusters repeated collisions between massive stars may lead to the formation of a very massive star (above 100 Msun). In the past the study of the long-term evolutio…
Understanding Compact Object Formation and Natal Kicks. IV. The case of IC 10 X-1
Tsing-Wai Wong, Francesca Valsecchi, Asna Ansari +4
The extragalactic X-ray binary IC 10 X-1 has attracted attention as it is possibly the host of the most massive stellar-mass black-hole (BH) known to date. Here we consider all ava…
Mock Observations of Blue Stragglers in Globular Cluster Models
Alison Sills, Evert Glebbeek, Sourav Chatterjee +1
We created artificial color-magnitude diagrams of Monte Carlo dynamical models of globular clusters, and then used observational methods to determine the number of blue stragglers…
Stellar Collisions and Blue Straggler Stars in Dense Globular Clusters
Sourav Chatterjee, Frederic A. Rasio, Alison Sills +1
Blue straggler stars (BSS) are abundantly observed in all Galactic globular clusters (GGC) where data exist. However, observations alone cannot reveal the relative importance of va…
The Origins of Blue Stragglers and Binarity in Globular Clusters
Nathan Leigh, Christian Knigge, Alison Sills +3
(abridged) We use newly available empirical binary fractions for globular clusters to carry out a direct test of the binary evolution hypothesis, and of collisional channels that i…
The occurrence of nitrogen-enhanced metal-poor stars: implications for the initial mass function in the early Galactic halo
Onno R. Pols, Robert G. Izzard, Richard J. Stancliffe +1
Most carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars are thought to result from past mass transfer of He-burning material from an asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star to a low-mass companion…
