Formation of Low-mass X-ray Binaries. Iii. a New Formation Mechanism: Direct Supernova
We propose a new formation mechanism (direct-supernova) for low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) that does not involve any prior phase of mass transfer. Survival through the supernova (SN) explosion and shrinkage of the orbit is achieved by a kick velocity of appropriate magnitude and direction imparted to the neutron star at its birth. We present analytical population synthesis calculations of LMXB...
متن کاملThe Formation of Population III Binaries
We explore the possibility for the formation of Population III binaries. The collapse of a rotating cylinder is simulated with a three-dimensional, highresolution nested grid, assuming the thermal history of primordial gas. The simulations are done with dimensionless units, and the results are applicable to low-mass as well as massive systems by scaling with the initial density. We find that if...
متن کاملThe formation of Population III binaries from cosmological initial conditions.
Previous high-resolution cosmological simulations predicted that the first stars to appear in the early universe were very massive and formed in isolation. Here, we discuss a cosmological simulation in which the central 50 M(o) (where M(o) is the mass of the Sun) clump breaks up into two cores having a mass ratio of two to one, with one fragment collapsing to densities of 10(-8) grams per cubic...
متن کاملFormation of massive binaries
The formation of massive stars is one of the major unsolved problems in stellar astrophysics. However, only few if any of these are found as single stars, on average massive stars have more than one companion. Many of them are born in dense stellar clusters and several clusters have an excess of massive short-period spectroscopic binaries, with severe implication for binary-related stellar evol...
متن کاملSurface Hydrogen Burning Modeling of Super Soft Xray Binaries: Are They Supernova Ia Progenitors?
Nova explosions occur on the white dwarf (WD) component of a Cataclysmic Variable stellar system which is accreting matter lost by a companion. A Type Ia supernova explosion is thought to result when a WD, in a similar binary configuration, grows in mass to the Chandrasekhar Limit. Here, we present calculations of accretion of Solar matter, at a variety of mass accretion rates, onto hot (2.3×10...
