The Common Envelope Evolution Outcome. III. the Improvement of Stellar Binding Energy with the Envelope Residual
Lifu Zhang, Hongwei Ge, Dylan Hebrail +7
Common-envelope evolution (CEE) is a key process in the evolution of close binary systems. Many important astrophysical objects and evolutionary stages are closely related to CEE,…
Influence of mass-transfer stability on the formation of post-common-envelope binaries
Yanxu Shi, Hongwei Ge, Zhenwei Li +9
Post-common-envelope binaries are the natural laboratories for constraining the physics of common envelope evolution, which is one of the most uncertain phases in binary stellar ev…
Mass-Orbital Period Distribution of Massive White Dwarfs Formed Through Stable Mass Transfer
Rizhong Zheng, Hongwei Ge, Christopher A Tout +10
White dwarfs (WDs) in binaries can form through either the stable mass-transfer process or common envelope evolution (CEE). Compared to CEE, the stable mass-transfer process can le…
Formation of Extremely Low-mass White Dwarf Binaries Undergoing Enhanced Angular Momentum Loss
Ziqi Zhao, Zhenwei Li, Zhengwei Liu +6
Extremely low-mass white dwarfs (ELM WDs) are helium (He) WDs with masses below , mainly formed through binary interaction. ELM WD binaries typically are forme…
Adiabatic Mass Loss In Binary Stars. VI. Massive Helium Binary Stars
Lifu Zhang, Hongwei Ge, Zhenwei Li +6
The stability of binary mass transfer is a critical problem for binary evolution. We systematically calculate the adiabatic mass-loss model for naked helium stars with masses rangi…
A Path to Constraints on Common Envelope Ejection in Massive Binaries: Full Evolutionary Reconstruction of Three Black Hole X-ray Binaries
Zhenwei Li, Dandan Wei, Shi Jia +6
The massive binary common envelope (CE) phase plays a pivotal role in the formation of close black hole/neutron star (BH/NS) binaries, yet significant uncertainties remain in our u…
