Early results from the SVOM Observatory Science program
A. Coleiro, L. Tao, F. Cangemi +44
We present the organisation and early results from the Observatory Science program of the Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM), based on data collect…
A Rare Population of Intermediate-mass Helium Stars Between Hot Subdwarfs and Wolf-Rayet Stars
Gui-Yu Wang, Yong Shao, Jian-Guo He +3
Helium stars stripped of their hydrogen envelopes represent pivotal phases in binary evolution, yet their origins, particularly within the intermediate-mass range of $2-8\, M_{\odo…
Mechanisms for magnetic braking boost and disruption: the role of irradiation-driven winds and convective turnover time spike in cataclysmic variables
Vladislav Dodon, Xiang-Dong Li, Xiao-jie Xu +2
The saturated, boosted, and disrupted magnetic braking (SBD MB) model is an empirical prescription that has recently gained support from close-binary observations. Different boosti…
X-ray luminous late-type giants: an overlooked population contributing to the Galactic ridge iron line emission
Tong Bao, Gabriele Ponti, Xiao-jie Xu +8
The origin of the highly ionized iron emission (Fe XXV at ) characterizing the Galactic ridge X-ray emission (GRXE) remains a fundamental puzzle in high-energy a…
Unveiling the soft X-ray source population towards the inner Galactic disk with XMM-Newton
Tong Bao, Gabriele Ponti, Frank Haberl +5
Across the Galactic disk lies a diverse population of X-ray sources, with the fainter end remaining poorly understood due to past survey sensitivity limits. We aim to classify and…
Exploring the Mass Segregation Effect of X-ray Sources in Globular Clusters. IV. Evidence of Black Hole Burning in Centauri
Zhongqun Cheng, Zhiyuan Li, Wei Wang +2
Using X-ray sources as sensitive probes of stellar dynamical interactions in globular clusters (GCs), we study the mass segregation and binary burning processes in Cen. We show…
