Influence of mass transfer stability on the formation of post-common-envelope binaries
Enhanced mass transfer stability explains the observed deficit of post-common-envelope binaries with solar-type companions, with inefficient common envelope evolution (alpha_CE=0.25) providing the best match when combined with magnetic braking and selection effects.
