Evolution of low-mass He stars and implications for electron-capture supernova formation in close binaries
Jun-Qian Li, Ying Qin, Zi-Yuan Wang +3
The evolution of low-mass helium (He) stars (--) with neutron-star (NS) companions in close binaries has been extensively studied, but the combined effects of…
On the origin of the rotation of massive stars
André Oliva, Facundo D. Moyano, Luca Sciarini +3
We explore the origin of the rotation rates of massive stars. Contrary to their low-mass siblings, most massive stars do not have detectable magnetic fields, so that star-disk inte…
Diagnosing the Properties and Evolutionary Fates of Black Hole and Wolf-Rayet X-ray Binaries as Potential Gravitational Wave Sources for the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Network
Zi-Yuan Wang, Ying Qin, Georges Meynet +7
IC 10 X-1, NGC 300 X-1, and Cyg X-3 constitute a unique class of X-ray binaries in which a stellar-mass black hole (BH) accretes material from a Wolf-Rayet (WR). These systems are…
Reassessing the Spin of Second-born Black Holes in Coalescing Binary Black Holes and Its Connection to the chi_eff-q Correlation
Zi-Yuan Wang, Ying Qin, Rui-Chong Hu +3
The mass ratio q and effective inspiral spin chi_eff of binary black hole (BBH) mergers in GWTC-4.0 show a weaker anti-correlation than in GWTC-3.0, motivating investigation of its…
The advanced evolution of massive stars: I. New reaction rates for carbon and oxygen nuclear reactions
T. Dumont, A. Bonhomme, A. Griffiths +9
The nuclear rates for reactions involving 12C and 16O are key to compute the energy release and nucleosynthesis of massive stars during their evolution. These rates shape the stell…
The fate of rotating massive stars across cosmic times
R. Hirschi, K. Goodman, G. Meynet +9
The initial mass and metallicity of stars both have a strong impact on their fate. Stellar axial rotation also has a strong impact on the structure and evolution of massive stars.…
