Characterizing the turbulent porosity of stellar-wind structure generated by the line-deshadowing instability
Stanley P. Owocki, Jon O. Sundqvist
We analyze recent 2D simulations of the nonlinear evolution of the line-deshadowing instability (LDI) in hot-star winds, to quantify how the associated highly clumped density struc…
Accretion form a clumpy massive-star wind in Supergiant X-ray binaries
I. El Mellah, J. O. Sundqvist, R. Keppens
Supergiant X-ray Binaries (SgXB) host a compact object, often a neutron star (NS), orbiting an evolved O/B star. Mass transfer proceeds through the intense line-driven wind of the…
2D wind clumping in hot, massive stars from hydrodynamical line-driven instability simulations using a pseudo-planar approach
J. O. Sundqvist, S. P. Owocki, J. Puls
Context: Clumping in the radiation-driven winds of hot, massive stars arises naturally due to the strong, intrinsic instability of line-driving (the `LDI'). But LDI wind models hav…
Stellar Winds in Massive X-ray Binaries
Peter Kretschmar, Silvia Martínez-Núñez, Enrico Bozzo +15
Strong winds from massive stars are a topic of interest to a wide range of astrophysical fields. In High-Mass X-ray Binaries the presence of an accreting compact object on the one…
Towards a unified view of inhomogeneous stellar winds in isolated supergiant stars and supergiant high mass X-ray binaries
Silvia Martínez-Núñez, Peter Kretschmar, Enrico Bozzo +13
Massive stars, at least 10 times more massive than the Sun, have two key properties that make them the main drivers of evolution of star clusters, galaxies, and the Universe…
