G. Nelemans
I discuss the effect of the formation of a black hole on a (close) binary and show some of the current constraints that the observed properties of black hole X-ray binaries put on…
Photometric Variability in the Faint Sky Variability Survey
L. Morales-Rueda, P. J. Groot, T. Augusteijn +3
The Faint Sky Variability Survey (FSVS) is aimed at finding photometric and/or astrometric variable objects between 16th and 24th mag on time-scales between tens of minutes and yea…
AM CVn stars
Gijs Nelemans
I review our observational and theoretical knowledge of AM CVn stars, focusing on recent developments. These include newly discovered systems, the possibility that two recently dis…
Double degenerates and progenitors of supernovae type Ia
R. Napiwotzki, L. Yungelson, G. Nelemans +12
We report on systematic radial velocity surveys for white dwarf - white dwarf binaries (double degenerates - DDs) including SPY (ESO Supernovae Ia progenitor survey) recently carri…
