Forward-modeling 193 observed post-common-envelope binaries shows energy-based formalisms (α and Two-stage) match observations while the angular-momentum-based SCATTER formalism does not, with recombination energy contributing 10–40%.
Population synthesis from binary evolution models predicts periodic neutron star-companion interactions in more than half of surviving hydrogen-poor core-collapse supernovae, with periods peaking at 20-50 days and lasting 0.5-10 years.
New MESA stellar tracks with varied winds and convective mixing produce a primary black hole mass function with twin peaks near 8 and 13 solar masses in most variations, the higher peak dominated by mass-ratio-reversal systems, with rates varying by a factor of six.
Reconstruction of GRO J1655-40, SAX J1819.3-2525 and 4U 1543-47 requires CE efficiencies α_0.5U ≳6.7, α_U ≳4.2, α_H ≳1.7 with no solutions below unity, implying need for additional energy or formalism changes plus natal kicks ≳50 km/s for 4U 1543-47.

The Best Guess: Testing new and old formalisms for the common envelope against observations
Forward-modeling 193 observed post-common-envelope binaries shows energy-based formalisms (α and Two-stage) match observations while the angular-momentum-based SCATTER formalism does not, with recombination energy contributing 10–40%.

Twin Peaks: Resolving Features in the Binary Black Hole Mass Function with COSMIC-METISSE
New MESA stellar tracks with varied winds and convective mixing produce a primary black hole mass function with twin peaks near 8 and 13 solar masses in most variations, the higher peak dominated by mass-ratio-reversal systems, with rates varying by a factor of six.
