AADor – An Eclipsing Post Common - Envelope Binary
AA Dor (LB 3459) is an eclipsing, close, single-lined, post common-envelope binary (PCEB) consisting of an sdOB primary star and an unseen secondary with an extraordinary small mass – formally a brown dwarf. The brown dwarf may have been a former planet which survived a common envelope phase and has even gained mass. A recent determination of the components' masses from results of state-of-the-...
متن کاملSherwood’s Plot: Fundamental or Empirical?
There are several examples of heuristic rules first proposed from empirical observation, which eventually earned physicochemical validity after the fundamental derivation of a posteriori. This may be the case of Sherwood’s plot – for which a sound rationalization from first principles, entailing enthalpy and mass balances, is provided here; it applies to (fine) chemicals undergoing concentr...
متن کاملA comprehensive population synthesis study of post-common envelope binaries
We apply population synthesis techniques to calculate the present day population of post-common envelope binaries (PCEBs) for a range of models describing the common envelope (CE) phase. This includes constant, global values of the CE ejection efficiency parameter αCE = 0.1 to 1.0, as well as considering it as a function of the secondary mass. We also use models where the values of λ (the giant...
متن کاملCommon Envelope Evolution
The common envelope phase of binary star evolution plays a central role in many evolutionary pathways leading to the formation of compact objects in short period systems. Using three dimensional hydrodynamical computations, we review the major features of this evolutionary phase, focusing on the conditions that lead to the successful ejection of the envelope and, hence, survival of the system a...
متن کاملCommon envelope evolution
Many binary star systems are not wide enough to contain the progenitor stars from which they were made. One explanation for this is that when one star becomes a red giant a common envelope forms around both stars in the binary system. The core of the giant and its companion star continue to orbit one another inside the envelope. Frictional energy deposited into the common envelope may lead to i...
