High-mass X-ray Binaries and Ob- Runaway Stars
High-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) represent an important phase in the evolution of massive binary systems. HMXBs provide unique diagnostics to test massive-star evolution, to probe the physics of radiationdriven winds, to study the process of mass accretion, and to measure fundamental parameters of compact objects. As a consequence of the supernova explosion that produced the neutron star (or bl...
متن کاملNumerical simulations of wind bow shocks produced by runaway OB stars
We present the results of a study focused on the morphology and dynamical evolution of wind bow shocks produced by massive runaway stars in the diffuse interstellar medium. A revision of current analytical models describing the shape and physical parameters of a wind bow shock is proposed, motivated by the recognition that the shocked stellar wind does not need to incorporate into the bow shock...
متن کاملMass loss from OB-stars
We review recent developments regarding radiation driven mass loss from OB-stars. We first summarize the fundamental theoretical predictions, and then compare these to observational results (including the VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars). Especially we focus on the mass loss-metallicity dependence and on the so-called bi-stability jump. Subsequently we concentrate on two urgent problems, wea...
متن کاملEvolution of Collisionally Merged Massive Stars
We investigate the evolution of collisionally merged stars with mass of ∼ 100M⊙ which might be formed in dense star clusters. We assumed that massive stars with several tens M⊙ collide typically after ∼ 1Myr of the formation of the cluster and performed hydrodynamical simulations of several collision events. Our simulations show that after the collisions, merged stars have extended envelopes an...
متن کاملRunaway Stars, Hypervelocity Stars, and Radial Velocity Surveys
Runaway stars ejected from the Galactic disk populate the halo of the Milky Way. To predict the spatial and kinematic properties of runaways, we inject stars into a Galactic potential, compute their trajectories through the Galaxy, and derive simulated catalogs for comparison with observations. Runaways have a flattened spatial distribution, with higher velocity stars at Galactic latitudes less...
