Mass Transfer Cycles in Close Binaries with Evolved Companions
We give a global analysis of mass transfer variations in low-mass X-ray binaries and cataclysmic variables whose evolution is driven by the nuclear expansion of the secondary star. We show that limit cycles caused by irradiation of the secondary by the accreting primary are possible in a large class of these binaries. In the high state the companion transfers a large fraction of its envelope ma...
متن کاملGraviton mass from close white dwarf binaries detectable with LISA
The arrival times of gravitational waves and optical light from orbiting binaries provide a mechanism to understand the propagation speed of gravity when compared to that of light or electromagnetic radiation. This is achieved with a measurement of any offset between the optically derived orbital phase and that derived from gravitational wave data, at a specified location of one binary componen...
متن کاملEnvironments of active close binaries
High-resolution spectroscopic observations were obtained for two eclipsing active close binary systems, GK Hy-drae and TY Pyxidis. For GK Hya excess emission was observed in the Balmer lines and Mg i b lines while TY Pyx showed excess emission in the Balmer lines and Ca ii H & K lines. The emission from GK Hya arises from a global phenomenon associated solely with the secondary component. The l...
متن کاملTev Emission from Close Binaries
It is commonly accepted that candidates for very high energy-ray sources are neutron stars, binary systems, black holes etc. Close binary systems containing a normal hot star and a neutron star (or a black hole) form an important class of very high energy-ray sources. Such systems are variable in any region of the electromagnetic spectrum and they enable us to study various stages of stellar ev...
متن کاملRotational mixing in close binaries
Rotational mixing is a very important but uncertain process in the evolution of massive stars. We propose to use close binaries to test its efficiency. Based on rotating single stellar models we predict nitrogen surface enhancements for tidally locked binaries. Furthermore we demonstrate the possibility of a new evolutionary scenario for very massive (M > 40M ) close (P < 3 days) binaries: Case...
