Non-conservative Mass Transfer as a Formation Channel for Gaia Black Hole System
Aleksandra Olejak, Jakub Klencki, Alejandro Vigna-Gomez +6
The detected Gaia systems hosting compact objects challenge standard models of binary star evolution. In particular, if the observed black hole (BH) systems evolved in isolation, t…
On the effects of radiation on mass transfer in binary stars
Jakub Cehula, Ondřej Pejcha
Mass transfer (MT) in binary systems is a common evolutionary process that can significantly affect the structure, evolution, and final fate of both stars. In modeling MT hydrodyna…
r-Process Nucleosynthesis and Radioactively Powered Transients from Magnetar Giant Flares
Anirudh Patel, Brian D. Metzger, Jared A. Goldberg +3
We present nucleosynthesis and light-curve predictions for a new site of the rapid neutron capture process (-process) from magnetar giant flares (GFs). Motivated by observations…
Direct evidence for r-process nucleosynthesis in delayed MeV emission from the SGR 1806-20 magnetar giant flare
Anirudh Patel, Brian D. Metzger, Jakub Cehula +3
The origin of heavy elements synthesized through the rapid neutron capture process (-process) has been an enduring mystery for over half a century. Cehula et al. (2024) recently…
Dynamics of baryon ejection in magnetar giant flares: implications for radio afterglows, r-process nucleosynthesis, and fast radio bursts
Jakub Cehula, Todd A. Thompson, Brian D. Metzger
We explore the impact of a magnetar giant flare (GF) on the neutron star (NS) crust, and the associated baryon mass ejection. We consider that sudden magnetic energy dissipation cr…
A theory of mass transfer in binary stars
Jakub Cehula, Ondřej Pejcha
Calculation of the mass transfer (MT) rate of a Roche lobe overflowing star is a fundamental task in binary star evolution theory. Most of the existing MT prescr…
