Merging binary black holes formed through double-core evolution
Y. Qin, R. -C. Hu, G. Meynet +5
To date, various formation channels of merging events have been heavily explored with the detection of nearly 100 double black hole (BH) merger events reported by the LIGO-Virgo-KA…
News from Gaia on sigma Ori E: a case study for the wind magnetic braking process
H. F. Song, G. Meynet, A. Maeder +8
Sigma Ori E, a massive helium B-type star, shows a high surface rotation and a strong surface magnetic field potentially challenging the process of wind magnetic braking. The Gaia…
Permanent variational wave functions for bosons
J. M. Zhang, H. F. Song, Y. Liu
We study the performance of permanent states (the bosonic counterpart of the Slater determinant state) as approximating functions for bosons, with the intention to develop variatio…
The spin of the second-born black hole in coalescing binary black holes
Y. Qin, T. Fragos, G. Meynet +3
Various binary black hole formation channels have been proposed since the first gravitational event GW150914 was discovered by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave…
Close binary evolution. III. Impact of tides, wind magnetic braking, and internal angular momentum transport
H. F. Song, G. Meynet, A. Maeder +8
Massive stars with solar metallicity lose important amounts of rotational angular momentum through their winds. When a magnetic field is present at the surface of a star, efficient…
Physics of massive stars relevant for the modeling of Wolf-Rayet populations
G. Meynet, C. Georgy, A. Maeder +5
Key physical ingredients governing the evolution of massive stars are mass losses, convection and mixing in radiative zones. These effects are important both in the frame of single…
