Polluting the pair-instability mass gap for binary black holes through super-Eddington accretion in isolated binaries
L. A. C. van Son, S. E. de Mink, F. S. Broekgaarden +6
The theory for single stellar evolution predicts a gap in the mass distribution of black holes (BHs) between approximately 45-130M, the so-called "pair-instability mass g…

The expansion of stripped-envelope stars: consequences for supernovae and gravitational-wave progenitors
E. Laplace, Y. Götberg, S. E. de Mink +2
Massive binaries that merge as compact objects are the progenitors of gravitational-wave sources. Most of these binaries experience one or more phases of mass transfer, during whic…
