The evolutionary status of the white dwarf companion of the binary pulsar PSR J1713+0747
O. G. Benvenuto, R. D. Rohrmann, M. A. De Vito
Splaver and coworkers have measured the masses of the white dwarf and the neutron star components of the PSR J1713+0747 binary system pair by Shapiro Delay. We attempt to find the…

The Formation of a Helium White Dwarf in Close Binary System with Diffusion
O. G. Benvenuto, M. A. De Vito
We study the evolution of a system composed by a 1.4 \msun neutron star and a normal, solar composition star of 2 \msun in orbit with a period of 1 day. Calculations were performed…

A Code for Stellar Binary Evolution and its Application to the Formation of Helium White Dwarfs
O. G. Benvenuto, M. A. De Vito
We present a numerical code intended for calculating stellar evolution in close binary systems. In doing so, we consider that mass transfer episodes occur when the stellar size ove…
