Chemical fingerprints of binary mass transfer in massive stars
Harim Jin, Norbert Langer
The majority of massive stars are born in close binary systems. As stars expand when they age, mass transfer or even a merger with their companion is inevitable. However, most bina…
A Galactic intermediate-mass stripped star with a Wolf-Rayet-like wind
Johanna Müller-Horn, Kareem El-Badry, Andreas A. C. Sander +17
Binary interaction in massive stars is expected to produce a large population of intermediate-mass (- M) envelope-stripped stars, yet such objects have remained elusi…
Neutron star-companion interaction in core collapse supernovae. Population synthesis based on detailed binary evolution models
Andrea Ercolino, Norbert Langer, Avishay Gal-Yam +6
Most massive stars live in binary systems. When the first supernova (SN) in a binary occurs, the ejecta hit the companion, which may inflate as a consequence, and then interact wit…
Evolution of wide O star binaries through their LBV stage. Population synthesis with mass-ejection-driven orbital evolution
Xiao-Tian Xu, Philipp Podsiadlowski, Norbert Langer +6
Context. Long-period Wolf-Rayet (WR) star binaries produced by mass transfer are predicted to be abundant, but are observationally rare. This yields constraints on the evolution of…
Interacting binaries on the Main Sequence as in-situ tracers of mass transfer efficiency and stability
Koushik Sen, Mathieu Renzo, Harim Jin +8
Understanding the transfer of mass and angular momentum in binary interactions is crucial for modelling the evolution of any interacting binary after the first mass transfer phase.…
A comprehensive grid of massive binary evolution models for the Galaxy - Surface properties of post-mass transfer stars
Harim Jin, Norbert Langer, Andrea Ercolino +1
Massive stars often evolve in binary systems, in which binary interactions significantly affect their evolution. Massive stars in the Galaxy serve as valuable testbeds for this due…
The demographics of core-collapse supernovae. The role of binary evolution and CSM interaction
Andrea Ercolino, Harim Jin, Norbert Langer +3
The observational properties of core-collapse supernovae (CC-SNe) are shaped by the envelopes of their progenitors. In massive binary systems, mass-transfer alters the pre-SN struc…
Mass-transferring binary stars as progenitors of interacting hydrogen-free supernovae
Andrea Ercolino, Harim Jin, Norbert Langer +1
Stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe) are H-poor transients produced at the end of the life of massive stars that previously lost their H-rich envelope. Their progenitors are thought…
Boron depletion in Galactic early B-type stars reveals two different main sequence star populations
Harim Jin, Norbert Langer, Daniel J. Lennon +1
The evolution and fate of massive stars are thought to be affected by rotationally induced internal mixing. The surface boron abundance is a sensitive tracer of this in early B-typ…
A sequence of Type Ib, IIb, II-L, and II-P supernovae from binary-star progenitors of varying initial separation
Luc Dessart, Claudia P. Gutierrez, Andrea Ercolino +2
Over the last decade, evidence has accumulated that massive stars do not typically evolve in isolation but instead follow a tumultuous journey with a companion star on their way to…
Boron Abundances in Early B Dwarfs of the Galactic Open Cluster NGC 3293
Charles R. Proffitt, Harim Jin, Simone Daflon +4
New boron abundances or upper limits have been determined for 8 early-B stars in the young Galactic open cluster NGC 3293, using ultraviolet spectra obtained by the Hubble Space Te…
