Mergers of close primordial binaries
N. Andronov, M. H. Pinsonneault, D. M. Terndrup
We study the production of main sequence mergers of tidally-synchronized primordial short-period binaries. The principal ingredients of our calculation are the angular momentum los…
Stellar models of evolved secondaries in CVs
N. Andronov, M. H. Pinsonneault
In this paper we study the impact of chemically evolved secondaries on CV evolution. We find that when evolved secondaries are included a spread in the secondary mass-orbital perio…
Cataclysmic Variables: An Empirical Angular Momentum Loss Prescription From Open Cluster Data
N. Andronov, M. Pinsonneault, A. Sills
We apply the angular momentum loss rates inferred from open cluster stars to the evolution of cataclysmic variables (CVs). We show that the angular momentum prescriptions used in e…
Complete Parallax and Proper Motion Solutions For Halo Binary-Lens Microlensing Events
Andrew Gould, Nikolay Andronov
A major problem in the interpretation of microlensing events is that the only measured quantity, the Einstein time scale t_E, is a degenerate combination of the three quantities on…
