An observed population of intermediate-mass helium stars that have been stripped in binaries

MR Drout, Y Götberg, BA Ludwig, JH Groh, SE de Mink… - Science, 2023 - science.org
The hydrogen-rich outer layers of massive stars can be removed by interactions with a
binary companion. Theoretical models predict that this stripping produces a population of …

A census of symbiotic stars in the 2MASS, WISE, and Gaia surveys

S Akras, L Guzman-Ramirez… - The Astrophysical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a new census of Galactic and extragalactic symbiotic stars (SySts). This
