Multiplicity of Massive Stars at Low Metallicity: Early Results from the BLOeM Campaign

T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner, M. Abdul-Masih +73

Massive stars at low metallicity (Z) play a central role in shaping the high-redshift Universe, yet their multiplicity remains poorly constrained. The Binarity at Low Metallicity (…

Toward 3D orbits of wide sdO/B binaries I. Six composite systems spatially resolved with VLTI/GRAVITY

K. Deshmukh, S. Geier, H. Sana +7

Hot subdwarf stars (sdO/Bs) are widely considered to be products of binary evolution. A significant fraction of them are found in long-period or wide binaries ( d) with main…

Mergers via failed common envelope as a route towards intermediate-mass stripped stars

Annachiara Picco, Pablo Marchant, Daniel Pauli +1

Stripped stars are a common product of binary stellar systems and span a wide mass range from Wolf-Rayet stars to hot subdwarfs and helium white dwarfs. The recent discovery of int…

The drastic impact of Eddington-limit induced mass ejections on massive star populations

D. Pauli, N. Langer, A. Schootemeijer +6

Massive stars are the key engines of the Universe. However, their evolution and thus their ionizing feedback are still not fully understood. One of the largest gaps in current stel…

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…

Forming merging double compact objects with stable mass transfer

Annachiara Picco, Pablo Marchant, Hugues Sana +1

Merging double compact objects (CO) represent the inferred sources of every detected gravitational wave (GW) signal, thus modeling their progenitors is important to constrain stell…
