The Evolution of Binary Systems
One of the most important environments in which accretion discs are found occur in interacting binaries. In this chapter I review the main properties of binary systems and the most important types of binary interactions, stable and unstable mass transfer, the role of mass loss, mass accretion and, in the most dramatic case, the merging of the two binary components. I particularly emphasise the ...
متن کاملThe Evolution of Compact Binary Star Systems
We review the formation and evolution of compact binary stars consisting of white dwarfs (WDs), neutron stars (NSs), and black holes (BHs). Binary NSs and BHs are thought to be the primary astrophysical sources of gravitational waves (GWs) within the frequency band of ground-based detectors, while compact binaries of WDs are important sources of GWs at lower frequencies to be covered by space i...
متن کاملEquilibrium, Stability and Orbital Evolution of Close Binary Systems
We present a new analytic study of the equilibrium and stability properties of close binary systems containing polytropic components. Our method is based on the use of ellipsoidal trial functions in an energy variational principle. We consider both synchronized and nonsynchronized systems, constructing the compressible generalizations of the classical Darwin and Darwin-Riemann configurations. O...
متن کاملEvolution of the Binary Fraction in Dense Stellar Systems
Using our recently improved Monte Carlo evolution code, we study the evolution of the binary fraction in globular clusters. In agreement with previous N -body simulations, we find generally that the hard binary fraction in the core tends to increase with time over a range of initial cluster central densities for initial binary fractions . 90%. The dominant processes driving the evolution of the...
متن کاملSpin-Orbit Resonance and the Evolution of Compact Binary Systems
Starting with a post-Newtonian description of compact binary systems, we derive a set of equations that describes the evolution of the orbital angular momentum and both spin vectors during inspiral. We find regions of phase space that exhibit resonance behavior, characterized by small librations of the spin vectors around a fixed orientation. Due to the loss of energy and orbital angular moment...
