Elusive helium stars in the gap between subdwarfs and Wolf-Rayet stars III. Formation of the Galactic population of stripped helium stars

L. R. Yungelson, A. G. Kuranov, A. V. Mishakina

Population synthesis based on the grid of pre-computed evolutionary sequences for close binaries is applied to the problem of formation of the Galactic population of stripped heliu…

Will a Supernova explode in CD-30°11223?

L. Piersanti, L. R. Yungelson, E. Bravo +1

Accretion of He-rich matter onto a low-mass CO WD from a He-rich donor may lead to an explosive event of SN Ia proportion, though with low peak luminosity and peculiar nucleosynthe…

Elusive helium stars in the gap between subdwarfs and Wolf-Rayet stars~II. Nonlinear pulsations of stripped helium stars

Yu. A. Fadeyev, A. G. Kuranov, L. R. Yungelson

It is shown for the first time that the stripped helium stars with masses 2 to 7 solar mass which are formed in close binary systems in the so-called case B of mass-exchange and re…

The expected evolution of the binary system PTF J2238+743015.1

Luciano Piersanti, Lev R. Yungelson, Eduardo Bravo

Binary systems made by a low-mass CO WD and a He-donor represent possible progenitors of explosive events via He-detonation, producing low-luminosity thermonuclear Supernovae with…

Towards a holistic magnetic braking model from the evolution of cataclysmic variables to stellar spin-down -- I: the spin-down of fully convective M-dwarfs

Arnab Sarkar, Lev Yungelson, Christopher A. Tout

We extend a magnetic braking (MB) model, which has been used earlier to address the evolution of cataclysmic variables, to address the spin period evolution of fu…

He-star donor AM CVn stars and their progenitors as LISA sources

Wei-Min Liu, Lev Yungelson, Alexandre Kuranov

Ultracompact cataclysmic variables (CVs) of the AM CVn type are deemed to be important verification sources for the future space gravitational wave detectors such as the Laser Inte…
