Common Envelope Evolution Redux
Ronald F. Webbink
Common envelopes form in dynamical time scale mass exchange, when the envelope of a donor star engulfs a much denser companion, and the core of the donor plus the dense companion s…
A Catalog and Atlas of Cataclysmic Variables: The Final Edition
Ronald A. Downes, Ronald F. Webbink, Michael M. Shara +3
The Catalog and Atlas of Cataclysmic Variables has been a staple of the CV community for over 10 years. The catalog has grown from 751 CVs in 1993 to 1600 CVs at present. The catal…
Hard X-ray Emission Associated with White Dwarfs II
Y. -H. Chu, M. A. Guerrero, R. A. Gruendl +1
We have previously conducted a search for X-ray sources coincident with white dwarfs using the white dwarf catalog compiled by McCook & Sion (1999} and the ROSAT sources in the WGA…
Hard X-ray Emission Associated with White Dwarfs
I. J. Odwyer, Y. -H. Chu, R. A. Gruendl +2
We have used the WGACAT to search for hard X-ray sources associated with white dwarfs (WDs) from the catalog of McCook & Sion (1999). We find 17 X-ray sources coincident with WDs s…
WeBo 1: A Young Barium Star Surrounded by a Ring-Like Planetary Nebula
Howard E. Bond, Don L. Pollacco, Ronald F. Webbink
WeBo 1 (PN G135.6+01.0), a previously unrecognized planetary nebula with a remarkable thin-ring morphology, was discovered serendipitously on Digitized Sky Survey images. The centr…
MODEST-1: Integrating Stellar Evolution and Stellar Dynamics
Piet Hut, Michael M. Shara, Sverre J. Aarseth +7
We summarize the main results from MODEST-1, the first workshop on MOdeling DEnse STellar systems. Our goal is to go beyond traditional population synthesis models, by introducing…
