Modeling High Mass X-ray Binaries to Double Neutron Stars through Common Envelope Evolution
Yu-Dong Nie, Yong Shao, Jian-Guo He +3
We present detailed evolutionary simulations of wide binary systems with high-mass () donor stars and a neutron star. Mass transfer in such binari…
A long-period pre-ELM system discovered from LAMOST medium-resolution survey
Zhi-Xiang Zhang, Ling-Lin Zheng, Wei-Min Gu +16
We present LAMOST~J041920.07+072545.4 (hereafter J0419), a close binary consisting of a bloated extremely low mass pre-white dwarf (pre-ELM WD) and a compact object with an orbital…
A dynamically discovered and characterized non-accreting neutron star -- M dwarf binary candidate
Tuan Yi, Wei-Min Gu, Zhi-Xiang Zhang +26
Optical time-domain surveys can unveil and characterize exciting but less-explored non-accreting and/or non-beaming neutron stars (NS) in binaries. Here we report the discovery of…
Population Synthesis of Galactic Be-star Binaries with A Helium-star Companion
Yong Shao, Xiang-Dong Li
LB-1 was originally suggested to harbour a very massive () black hole, but was recently suggested to be a post-mass transfer binary containing a Be star and a he…
A wide star-black-hole binary system from radial-velocity measurements
Jifeng Liu, Haotong Zhang, Andrew W. Howard +52
All stellar mass black holes have hitherto been identified by X-rays emitted by gas that is accreting onto the black hole from a companion star. These systems are all binaries with…
Population Synthesis of Black Hole Binaries with Normal-Star Companions: I. Detached Systems
Yong Shao, Xiang-Dong Li
Optical observations of normal-stars in binary systems with massive unseen objects have been proposed to search for candidate black holes (BHs) and provide a direct measurement of…
V1082-Sgr: A magnetic cataclysmic variable with a lobe-filling companion star
Xiao-jie Xu, Yong Shao, Xiang-dong Li
V1082 Sgr is a cataclysmic variable with accretion luminosity above erg s, indicating a mass transfer rate above yr. However, its K type co…
Nonconservative Mass Transfer in Massive Binaries and the Formation of Wolf-Rayet+O Binaries
Yong Shao, Xiang-Dong Li
The mass transfer efficiency during the evolution of massive binaries is still uncertain. We model the mass transfer processes in a grid of binaries to investigate the formation of…
Angular Momentum Loss Mechanisms in Cataclysmic Variables below the Period Gap
Yong Shao, Xiang-Dong Li
Mass transfer in cataclysmic variables (CVs) is usually considered to be caused by angular momentum loss (AML) driven by magnetic braking and gravitational radiation (GR) above the…
