Formation of Binary Millisecond Pulsars with Helium White Dwarfs in a New Magnetic Braking Prescription
Xing-Peng Yang, Wen-Cong Chen
Magnetic braking (MB) mechanism plays a vital role throughout the evolution of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). Considering the standard MB prescription, the initial orbital period…

Can the Anomalous Magnetic Braking of Ap/Bp Stars Explain the Orbital Decay of Algol-type Binaries?
Guan-Long Wu, Zhao-Yu Zuo, Wen-Cong Chen
Several Algol-type binaries were detected to be experiencing rapid orbital decay, which is in contradiction with the conservative mass transfer model.} In this work, we investigate…

Orbital-period Changes of Low-mass X-ray Binaries Driven by Magnetic Braking
Yun-Ning Fan, Yong Shao, Wen-Cong Chen
The magnetic braking (MB) plays an important role in driving the evolution of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). The modified MB prescription, convection and rotation boosted (CARB)…
