On The Formation of Double White Dwarfs: Reevaluating How We Parametrize the Common Envelope Phase
T. E. Woods, N. Ivanova, M. van der Sluys +1
One class of compact binaries of special interest is that of double white dwarfs (DWDs). For many of these systems, the exact nature of the evolutionary channels by which they form…
Common envelope: enthalpy consideration
Natalia Ivanova, Semyon Chaichenets
In this Letter we discuss a modification to the criterion for the common envelope (CE) event to result in envelope dispersion. We emphasize that the current energy criterion for th…
On the Formation of Double White Dwarfs through Stable Mass Transfer and a Common Envelope
T. E. Woods, N. Ivanova, M. van der Sluys +1
Although several dozen double white dwarfs (DWDs) have been observed, for many the exact nature of the evolutionary channel(s) by which they form remains uncertain. The canonical e…
The Formation of Low-Mass Double White Dwarfs through an Initial Phase of Stable Non-Conservative Mass Transfer
T. E. Woods, N. Ivanova, M. van der Sluys +1
Although many double white dwarfs (DWDs) have been observed, the evolutionary channel by which they are formed from low-mass/long-period red-giant-main-sequence (RG-MS) binaries re…
