The Minimum Orbital Period in Thermal–Timescale Mass Transfer
We show that the usual picture of supersoft X–ray binary evolution as driven by conservative thermal–timescale mass transfer cannot explain the short orbital periods of RX J0537.7–7034 (3.5 hr) and 1E0035.4-7230 (4.1 hr). Non–conservative evolution may produce such periods, but requires very significant mass loss, and is highly constrained.
متن کاملThe Keck Planet Search: Detectability and the Minimum Mass and Orbital Period Distribution of Extrasolar Planets
We analyze 8 years of precise radial velocity measurements from the Keck Planet Search, characterizing the detection threshold, selection effects, and completeness of the survey. We first carry out a systematic search for planets, by assessing the false alarm probability associated with Keplerian orbit fits to the data. This allows us to understand the detection threshold for each star in terms...
متن کاملHeat and Mass Transfer in Thermal Plasmas
The present status of plasma processes involving heat and mass transfer is surveyed, with particular reference to the proceses of vaporization, condensation and chemical reaction. Some of the more important plasma techniques are discussed with emphasis placed on means for maximising the overall thermal efficiency of the mass transfer process, and for controlling the properties of the condensed ...
متن کاملDwarf Novae in the Shortest Orbital Period Regime: II. WZ Sge Stars as the Missing Population near the Period Minimum
WZ Sge-type dwarf novae are characterized by long recurrence times of outbursts ( 10 yr) and short orbital periods (. 85 min). A significant part of WZ Sge stars may remain undiscovered because of low outburst activity. Recently, the observed orbital period distribution of cataclysmic variables (CVs) has changed partly because outbursts of new WZ Sge stars have been discovered routinely. Hence,...
متن کاملHeat and Mass Transfer in Industrial Biscuit Baking Oven and Effect of Temperature on Baking Time
This research deals with heat and mass transfer in biscuit industrial baking ovens. In these ovens, heat reaches biscuits indirectly by radiation, convection and conduction. The method for numerical solution is that we first provide the related equations, then they are discretized by finite difference method (FDM), and finally, after encoding and writing a program for the computer, we run it. T...
