The Response of Giant Stars To Dynamical-Timescale Mass Loss
Jean-Claude Passy, Falk Herwig, Bill Paxton
We study the response of giant stars to mass loss. One-dimensional simulations of red and asymptotic giant branch stars with mass loss rates from up to a few \msun/yr sho…
Estimating the binary fraction of planetary nebulae central stars
D. Douchin, O. De Marco, D. J. Frew +10
During the past 20 years, the idea that non-spherical planetary nebulae (PN) may need a binary or planetary interaction to be shaped was discussed by various authors. It is now gen…
Simulating the Common Envelope Phase of a Red Giant Using SPH and Uniform Grid Codes
Jean-Claude Passy, Orsola De Marco, Chris L. Fryer +6
We use three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations to study the rapid infall phase of the common envelope interaction of a red giant branch star of mass equal to 0.88 \msun and a…
