The implications of a companion enhanced wind on millisecond pulsar production
Sarah L. Smedley, Christopher A. Tout, Lilia Ferrario +1
The most frequently seen binary companions to millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are helium white dwarfs (He WDs). The standard rejuvenation mechanism, in which a low- to intermediate-mass…
Formation of redbacks via accretion induced collapse
Sarah L. Smedley, Christopher A. Tout, Lilia Ferrario +1
We examine the growing class of binary millisecond pulsars known as redbacks. In these systems the pulsar's companion has a mass between 0.1 and about 0.5 solar masses in an orbita…
The Nature of Millisecond Pulsars with Helium White Dwarf Companions
Sarah L. Smedley, Christopher A. Tout, Lilia Ferrario +1
We examine the growing data set of binary millisecond pulsars that are thought to have a helium white dwarf companion. These systems are believed to form when a low- to intermediat…
Galactic Centre star formation: the case of the missing gas disc
R. D. Alexander, S. L. Smedley, S. Nayakshin +1
We study the dynamical evolution of stars and gas close to the centre of the Milky Way. Any plausible means of forming the young stars observed at the Galactic Centre leaves behind…
