abstract

In this chapter we review the formation and evolution of compact binaries with neutron star and/or black hole components (i.e. LMXBs, HMXBs, binary pulsars). After an introduction we discuss stellar evolution in binaries and the processes involved in the mass-transfer phases of close binaries (RLO, CE, ang.mom.loss) with radiative/convective hydrogen or helium donor stars. We also describe the effects of accretion, asymmetric SN and systems merging as a result of gravitational wave radiation.

Where are Gaia's small black holes?

astro-ph.HE · 2025-08-12 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Natal kicks from supernovae are proposed to disrupt Gaia progenitor binaries containing low-mass black holes more frequently than those leading to gravitational-wave mergers, accounting for the observed difference in the 2.5-5 solar mass gap.

Iron line diagnostics of the stellar wind in X1908+075

astro-ph.HE · 2026-05-18 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Chandra HETGS observations of X1908+075 detect variable Fe Kα fluorescence, model NH orbital changes to derive inclination 46° and wind mass-loss rate 9.1e-7 solar masses per year, confirming a classical wind-fed supergiant X-ray binary.
