Angular momentum and mass evolution of contact binaries
Various scenarios of contact binary evolution have been proposed in the past, giving hints of (sometimes contradictory) evolutionary sequence connecting A-type and W-type systems. As the components of close detached binaries approach each other and contact binaries are formed, following evolutionary paths transform them into systems of two categories: A-type and W-type. The systems evolve in a ...
متن کاملMass and angular-momentum inequalities for axi-symmetric initial data sets. II. Angular momentum
We extend the validity of Dain’s angular-momentum inequality to maximal, asymptotically flat, initial data sets on a simply connected manifold with several asymptotically flat ends which are invariant under a U(1) action and which admit a twist potential.
متن کاملEnergy versus angular momentum in black hole binaries.
Using accurate numerical-relativity simulations of (nonspinning) black-hole binaries with mass ratios 1:1, 2:1, and 3:1, we compute the gauge-invariant relation between the (reduced) binding energy E and the (reduced) angular momentum j of the system. We show that the relation E(j) is an accurate diagnostic of the dynamics of a black-hole binary in a highly relativistic regime. By comparing the...
متن کاملSpectroscopic binaries with components of similar mass
The assertion that there is an intrinsic excess of binaries with mass ratios q ≃ 1-the twin hypothesis-is investigated. A strong version of this hypothesis (Hs), due to Lucy & Ricco (1979) and Tokovinin (2000), refers to a narrow peak in the distribution function ψ(q) for q > ∼ 0.95. A weak version (Hw), due to Halbwachs et al. (2003), refers to a broad peak for q > ∼ 0.8. Current data on SB2's...
متن کاملMass and Angular Momentum of SgrA*
Over the past four years it has become increasingly clear that Sgr A* is not a steady source but is more or less continuously flaring. The first large flare was observed in X-rays on October 26, 2000 with Chandra [1]. A second, even brighter X-ray flare went off on October 3, 2002 and was recorded by XMM-Newton [2]. In the near infrared (NIR) two bright flares were observed on June 15 and 16, 2...
