The twin red giant branch system BD+20 5391 A case study of low-mass double-core evolution
M. Kurpas, M. Dorsch, S. Geier +12
Understanding interactions of binary systems on the red giant branch is crucial to understanding the formation of compact stellar remnants such as helium-core white dwarfs (He-WDs)…
HR6819: a puffed-up stripped star system challenging stable mass transfer theory
A. Picco, P. Marchant, H. Sana +8
HR6819 is the first system with a puffed-up low mass stripped star and a classical Be star whose nature has been confirmed by optical interferometry. It shows the most extreme mass…
A high fraction of close massive binary stars at low metallicity
H. Sana, T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner +74
At high metallicity, a majority of massive stars have at least one close stellar companion. The evolution of such binaries is subject to strong interaction processes, heavily impac…
Characterisation of B-type stars in four young Galactic open clusters. I. Stellar content and binary properties
Federica Nardini, Julia Bodensteiner, Hugues Sana +3
Multiplicity among massive stars represents a major uncertainty in stellar evolution theory, because the extra physical processes that it introduces significantly impacts each star…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): Bayesian inference of natal kicks from inert black hole binaries
R. Willcox, P. Marchant, A. Vigna-Gómez +15
Context. The emerging population of inert black hole binaries (BHBs) provides a unique opportunity to constrain black hole (BH) formation physics. These systems are composed of a s…
The highly magnetic Wolf-Rayet binary HD 45166 resolved with VLTI/GRAVITY
K. Deshmukh, T. Shenar, A. Mérand +9
HD 45166 was recently reported to be a long-period binary comprising a B7V star and a highly magnetic (kG) hot Wolf-Rayet-like component, dubbed a…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): Enhanced multiplicity of early B-type dwarfs and giants at
J. I. Villaseñor, H. Sana, L. Mahy +32
Early B-type stars ( M) are frequently in multiple systems, as evidenced by spectroscopic campaigns in the Milky Way (MW) and the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Pr…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): The multiplicity properties and evolution of BAF-type supergiants
L. R. Patrick, D. J. Lennon, F. Najarro +36
Given the uncertain evolutionary status of blue supergiant stars, their multiplicity properties hold vital clues to better understand their origin and evolution. As part of The Bin…
Binarity at Low Metallicity (BLOeM) -- Multiplicity properties of Oe and Be stars
J. Bodensteiner, T. Shenar, H. Sana +40
Rapidly rotating classical OBe stars have been proposed as the products of binary interactions, and the fraction of Be stars with compact companions implies that at least some are.…
