Rapid Orbital Decay of Supersoft X-Ray Source WX Cen: a Surrounding Circumbinary Disk

Zhi-Qiang Liu, Wei-Min Liu, Wen-Cong Chen

WX Cen is most likely a candidate of compact binary supersoft X-ray sources, which consists of a white dwarf (WD) and a donor star that fills the Roche lobe. Recently, this source…

Simulations of the progenitors of black hole-neutron star gravitational wave sources

Long Jiang, Wen-Cong Chen, Thomas M. Tauris +2

Recent discoveries of gravitational wave (GW) events most likely originating from black hole (BH) + neutron star (NS) mergers reveal the existence of BH+NS binaries. The formation…

Type Ia supernovae in NS+He star systems and the isolated mildly recycled pulsars

Yun-Lang Guo, Bo Wang, Cheng-Yuan Wu +3

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are successful cosmological distance indicators and important element factories in the chemical evolution of galaxies. They are generally thought to ori…

Black Hole Ultra-compact X-ray Binaries: Galactic Low-Frequency Gravitational Wave Sources

Ke Qin, Long Jiang, Wen-Cong Chen

In the Galaxy, close binaries with compact objects are important low-frequency gravitational wave (GW) sources. As potential low-frequency GW sources, neutron star/white dwarf (WD)…

On the X-ray pulsar HD 49798: a contracting white dwarf with debris disk?

Wen-Cong Chen

HD49798/RX J0648.0-4418 is a peculiar binary including a hot subdwarf of O spectral type and a compact companion in a 1.55 day orbit. According to the steady spin period derivative…

Ultra-compact X-ray binaries with He star companions

Bo Wang, Wencong Chen, Dongdong Liu +5

Ultra-compact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) are low-mass X-ray binaries with hydrogen-deficient mass-donors and ultra-short orbital periods. They have been suggested to be the potential L…
