NAOJ ATERUI III simulations show magnetic fields strip angular momentum from forming protostar pairs at up to 0.7 percent per ...
New simulations show that interactions with a magnetic field can work to decrease the distance between still forming binary ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising force that may help explain how binary star systems form so quickly. New supercomputer ...
Magnetic fields may be the hidden force bringing both newborn stars and giant black holes together. New computer simulations ...
How many Earth-sized exoplanets orbit binary star systems (two-star systems)? This is what a recent study accepted by Astronomy & Astrophysics hopes to address as an international team of researchers ...
Astronomers have identified a rare type of binary star system containing a rapidly spinning millisecond pulsar and a helium star companion, formed via common envelope evolution. Although such systems ...
The binary star system ν Octantis has long been considered hostile to planet formation. The discovery of a white dwarf in the system offers an alternative view. However, Cheng and colleagues observe ...
