On the onset of runaway stellar collisions in dense star clusters -- II. Hydrodynamics of three-body interactions
(Oxford University Press, 2009-10-18)The onset of runaway stellar collisions in young star clusters is more likely to initiate with an encounter between a binary and a third star than between two single stars. Using the initial conditions of such three-star ... -
Stability and Coalescence of Massive Twin Binaries
(The American Astronomical Society., 2015-06-12)Massive stars are usually found in binaries, and binaries with periods less than 10 days may have a preference for near equal component masses ("twins"). In this paper we investigate the evolution of massive twin binaries ... -
Twin Binaries: Studies of Stability, Mass Transfer, and Coalescence
(Institute of Physics, 2011-08-20)Motivated by suggestions that binaries with almost equal-mass components (“twins”) play an important role in the formation of double neutron stars and may be rather abundant among binaries, we study the stability of ... -
