star binaries. We find that the opening angle of the contact discontinuity (CD) is …

Wind collision and accretion simulations of the massive binary system HD 166734

A Kashi - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 - academic.oup.com
ABSTRACT I have run hydrodynamic simulations that follow the colliding wind structure of
the massive binary system HD 166734 along its binary orbit. I show that close to periastron …

Thin shell morphology in the circumstellar medium of massive binaries

AJ van Marle, R Keppens, Z Meliani - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2011 - aanda.org
Context. In massive binaries, the powerful stellar winds of the two stars collide, leading to the
formation of shock-dominated environments that can be modeled only in 3D. Aims. We …

Hydrodynamic winds from twin-star binaries

M MacLeod, A Loeb - The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
Stellar winds shape the evolution of stars through the loss of mass. In binary systems, they
also shape the stars' evolution by modifying the orbit. In this paper, we use hydrodynamic …

Theoretical Models of Interacting Winds in Massive Binaries

J Pittard - Bulletin de la Societe Royale des Sciences de Liege, 2011 - popups.uliege.be
Massive binary systems are excellent laboratories for studying stellar winds. The powerful
collision of the winds unleashes a broad spectrum of emission revealing the interesting …
