Ages and ZAMS spin distribution of stars in detached eclipsing binaries
T. Merle, W. Van Rensbergen, L. Siess +4
Benchmarking fundamental stellar properties is essential for calibrating evolutionary models and establishing empirical relationships between mass, radius, luminosity and related s…
The SB9 catalogue: status, comparison with non-single stars from Gaia DR3 and evolution to SBX
T. Merle, A. Jorissen, S. Alexandre +9
The Ninth Catalogue of Spectroscopic Binary Orbits (SB9) is a comprehensive compilation of spectroscopic binaries (SBs) with orbital parameters sourced from literature, comprising…
Sakurai's object: a [WC] star in a new bipolar nebula after a VLTP
Griet Van de Steene, Peter van Hoof, Stefan Kimeswenger +5
Optical spectra of the Very Late Thermal Pulse (VLTP) object V4334 Sgr have shown a rapidly changing spectrum resulting from shocks in the outflow, which created a new bipolar nebu…
Non-thermal radio emission in Sakurai's Object
Marcin Hajduk, Peter A. M. van Hoof, Albert A. Zijlstra +5
The very late thermal pulse (VLTP) affects the evolution of 20\% of 1--8\, stars, repeating the last phases of the red giant within a few years and leading t…
