Thermodynamic functions of dense plasmas: analytic approximations for astrophysical applications
read the original abstract
We briefly review analytic approximations of thermodynamic functions of fully ionized nonideal electron-ion plasmas, applicable in a wide range of plasma parameters, including the domains of nondegenerate and degenerate, nonrelativistic and relativistic electrons, weakly and strongly coupled Coulomb liquids, classical and quantum Coulomb crystals. We present improvements to previously published approximations. Our code for calculation of thermodynamic functions based on the reviewed approximations is made publicly available.

Mergers via failed common envelope as a route towards intermediate-mass stripped stars
Failed common envelope mergers yield 6-14 solar mass stripped stars consistent with long-lived core He-burning objects that appear single or in wide binaries from hierarchical triples.

Comparative Study of Two Luminous Red Novae I. Progenitor Modeling and Dust Formation
Binary evolution modeling constrains donor masses of 14-23 solar masses for two luminous red novae and shows dust masses are 1-5 orders of magnitude below total ejected envelope masses.
