Radial Velocity Curves of Ellipsoidal Red Giant Binaries in the Large Magellanic Cloud
J. D. Nie, P. R. Wood
Ellipsoidal red giant binaries are close binary systems where an unseen, relatively close companion distorts the red giant, leading to light variations as the red giant moves aroun…

Predicting the Fate of Binary Red Giants Using the Observed Sequence E Star Population: Binary Planetary Nebula Nuclei and Post-RGB Stars
J. D. Nie, P. R. Wood, C. P. Nicholls
Sequence E variables are close binary red giants that show ellipsoidal light variations. They are likely the immediate precursors of planetary nebulae (PNe) with close binary centr…

Predicting the Evolutionary Descendents of Sequence E Stars
J. D. Nie, P. R. Wood, C. P. Nicholls
Sequence E variables are close binary red giants that show ellipsoidal light variations. They are likely to terminate their red giant evolution by a common envelope (CE) event when…
