The DBL Survey II: towards a mass-period distribution of double white dwarf binaries
James Munday, Ingrid Pelisoli, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay +14
Double white dwarf binaries are an important remnant of binary evolution as they are possible type Ia supernova progenitors and strong sources of gravitational waves in the low-fre…
Comparing population synthesis models of compact double white dwarfs to electromagnetic observations
Wouter G. J. van Zeist, Jan van Roestel, Gijs Nelemans +3
Context: Studies of the Galactic population of double white dwarfs (DWDs) that would be detectable in gravitational waves by LISA have found differences in the number of predicted…
A super-Chandrasekhar mass type Ia supernova progenitor at 49 pc set to detonate in 23 Gyr
James Munday, Ruediger Pakmor, Ingrid Pelisoli +9
Double white dwarf binaries are a leading explanation to the origin of type Ia supernovae, but no system exceeding the Chandrasekhar mass limit (1.4 M) has been found that…
The formation of Cataclysmic Variables: the influence of nova eruptions
G. Nelemans, L. Siess, S. Repetto +2
The theoretical and observed populations of pre-cataclysmic variables (pre-CVs) are dominated by systems with low-mass white dwarfs (WDs), while the WD masses in CVs are typically…
Population synthesis of classical low-mass X-ray binaries in the Galactic Bulge
L. M. van Haaften, G. Nelemans, R. Voss +2
Aims. We model the present-day population of 'classical' low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) with neutron star accretors, which have hydrogen-rich donor stars. Their population is comp…
PopCORN: Hunting down the differences between binary population synthesis codes
S. Toonen, J. S. W. Claeys, N. Mennekens +1
Binary population synthesis (BPS) modelling is a very effective tool to study the evolution and properties of close binary systems. The uncertainty in the parameters of the model a…
