The Best Guess: Testing new and old formalisms for the common envelope against observations
Riley Thai, Amanda Karakas, Amanda I. Karakas +8
We present a systematic test of formalisms for common envelope evolution by forward-modelling observable post-common envelope binaries. We compare predictions from the -formalis…
Evaluating Classifications of Extremely Metal-poor Candidates Selected from Gaia XP Spectra
Riley Thai, Andrew R. Casey, Alexander Ji +2
Extremely metal-poor stars are intrinsically rare, but emerging methods exist to accurately classify them from all-sky Gaia XP low-resolution spectra. To assess their overall accur…
A nearly pristine star from the Large Magellanic Cloud
