文摘We simulate the gravitational redshift of quantum matter waves with a long de Broglie wavelength by tracing particle beams along geodesics,when they propagate within the rotation plane of binary black holes.The angular momentum of the binary black hole causes an asymmetric gravitational redshift distribution around the two black holes.The gravitational redshift changes the frequency of quantum matter waves and their wavelength,resulting in the different interference patterns of quantum matter waves with respect to different wavelengths.The interference pattern demonstrates strong contrast intensity and spatial order with respect to different wavelengths and the rotational angle of the binary black hole.A bright semicircular arc emerges from the interference pattern to bridge the two black holes,when they rotate to certain angles,which provides a theoretical understanding on the gravitational lensing effect of quantum matter waves.

文摘We present a detailed analysis of a double-lined spectroscopic binary system,Bo Gem,using data obtained from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope(LAMOST)and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite(TESS).By applying spectral disentangling techniques to the LAMOST Medium Resolution Spectra,we determine the orbital parameters,including the orbital period of P=4.0689 days,and semimajor axis of a=14.90±0.04 R_(⊙).The mass ratio between the two components is found to be q=0.198±0.006,with an inclination of i=82°.3±0°.13.The photometric data from TESS revealed periodic light variations due to the eclipsing nature of the system,allowing for the determination of the primary star’s radius as R_(1)=1.68±0.03 R_(⊙)and the secondary star’s radius as R_(2)=3.68±0.04 R_(⊙).The effective temperatures of the primary and secondary stars are measured to be T_(eff,1)=9705±50 K and T_(eff,2)=5830±22 K,respectively.By analyzing the disentangled spectra,we determined the stellar atmospheric parameters—including surface gravity and metallicity of both stars.These results not only confirm the double-lined spectroscopic binary status of Bo Gem,but also underscore its value as an important system for testing and refining stellar evolution models.

文摘Despite many attempts,the origin of UV emission line and continuum in contact binary stars remains unclear.We present a substantial UV spectroscopic analysis of VW Cephei,a late-type contact binary system,using 46 lowresolution spectra from the International Ultraviolet Explorer in the wavelength range 1150-1978À.By modeling continuum and emissions lines in individual spectra,we report the significant detection of O Ⅲ](1660 and 1666À)and Si Ⅳ(1393 and 1402À)line complexes.We observe that UV fluxes for both continuum and emission lines like C Ⅳ,O Ⅲ],C Ⅱ and Si Ⅳ vary significantly(fractional rms variability up to 45%)from hours to years.In addition,line widths also change by hundreds of km s^(-1).The UV flux variabilities observed in the continuum bands and line emissions are uncorrelated.However,most of the flux values follow the binary orbital period observed from optical data.Our analysis indicates that,while the variation in continuum flux may be attributed to a heated photosphere,the line width measurements indicate that the emission lines are likely formed in the dynamical clouds associated with Roche lobe overflow.We estimate the mass transfer rate of M=(0.82±0.01)×10^(-7)M_(⊙)yr^(-1)from UV line fluxes,which is in good agreement with optical studies.

文摘Based on positional observations and measurements of radial velocities,the orbits of 850 wide visual binary stars have been determined.The parameters of the log-normal distributions for the histograms of orbital periods,stellar masses,and semimajor axes in astronomical units have been obtained.The eccentricity histogram for binary stars with orbital periods less than 400 yr follows a normal distribution centered at e=0.545+/−0.029.For stars with longer periods,this distribution obeys the law f=2e,with accuracy to errors.The mass-to-luminosity relation for stars with well-determined masses is given by:log L_(⊙)=4.33 logM_(⊙)-0.11,where L_(⊙) and M_(⊙) are the luminosity and mass of the star in units of the solar luminosity and mass,respectively.

文摘We presented the first photometric light curve solutions of four W Ursae Majoris-type contact binary systems.This investigation utilized photometric data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and Gaia Data Release 3(DR3).We used the PHysics Of Eclipsing BinariEs Python code and the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method for these light curve solutions.Only TIC 249064185 among the target systems needed a cold starspot to be included in the analysis.Based on the estimated mass ratios for these total eclipse systems,three of them are categorized as low mass ratio contact binary stars.The absolute parameters of the systems were estimated using the Gaia DR3 parallax method and the orbital period and semimajor axis(P-a)empirical relationship.We ascertained that the TIC 318015356 and TIC 55522736 systems are A-subtypes,while TIC 249064185 and TIC 397984843 are W-subtypes,depending on each component’s effective temperature and mass.We estimated the initial masses of the stars,the mass lost by the binary system,and the systems’ages.We displayed star positions in the mass-radius,mass-luminosity,and total mass-orbital angular momentum diagrams.In addition,our findings indicate a good agreement with the mass-temperature empirical parameter relationship for the primary stars.

文摘Using ground-based telescopes,the multi-color photometric observations of the contact binary EF Boo were obtained in 2020,2023,and 2024.Combining these with 7-sectors of light curves from TESS data,the variations of the O'Connell effect in continuous time and shapes of light curves over several years were identified.Three sets of typical light curves were analyzed to determine the photometric solutions via the Wilson-Devinney program.Considering the spectroscopic mass ratio of q=0.53,these photometric solutions suggest that EF Boo is a W-type W UMa contact binary with the averaged filling factor of f=22.26%,a small temperature difference,and a cool spot on the primary component.If the variations of the O'Connell effect are due to the magnetic activity of this cool spot,the longitudinal location varied from 50.4 to 302.7 over the time interval of 1434 days.Based on all CCD minimum times from ground-based telescope and TESS data,the O-C curve was also analyzed.A cyclic oscillation(A3=0.00575 days,T3=27.8 yr)superimposed on a secular increase(dP/dt=6.74×10^(-8)day yr^(-1))was discovered for the first time.The successive increase is possibly a result of mass transfer from the less massive star to the more massive one.The cyclic oscillations were possibly explained by the light-travel time effect via a third body or the magnetic activities.From the short cadence observations from TESS,we also calculated the value of the O'Connell effect and O-C value for each cycle and found no correlation between the O'Connell effect and O-C over nearly 30 days across different sectors.

文摘This study presents a detailed photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the W UMa-type binary NR Cam,using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite(TESS)and ground-based observations.The light curves exhibit significant variable,with a negative correlation between the brightness of the two maxima—a characteristic of W UMa-type binaries typically attributed to magnetic activity.To explain this behavior,we incorporated a starspot model into our Wilson–Devinney analysis.Our results confirm that NR Cam is a W-subtype,moderately contact binary with a low mass ratio of q=5.75(±0.03)and a fill-out factor of f=33.4(±3.1)%.We also analyzed the orbital period variation using all available times of minima.The resulting O−C diagram reveals a long-term decreasing trend in the orbital period at a rate of dP/dt=−5.18(±0.02)×10^(-8) day yr^(-1),superimposed with a periodic oscillation characterized by an amplitude of A_(3)=0.0019(±0.0001)day and an oscillation period of P_(3)=7.776(±0.003)yr.The long-term decrease is likely due to mass transfer between the binary components,with an estimated mass transfer rate of dM_(2)/dt=1.33(±0.01)×10^(-8)M_(⊙)yr^(-1).The periodic oscillations are likely driven by the light-travel time effect caused by a tertiary companion,with a minimum mass of M_(3)=0.0956(1)M_(⊙)and a maximum separation of 3.841(6)au.Additionally,we considered the possibility that the periodic variation could result from changes in the gravitational quadrupole moment due to magnetic activity cycles,as described by the Applegate mechanism.Our findings confirm that NR Cam is an active binary system,where magnetic activity plays a significant role in its orbital evolution.These results contribute to our understanding of the magnetic dynamics and evolutionary processes in contact binary systems.

文摘Finding pulsars in binaries is important for measurements of the masses of neutron stars(NSs),for tests of gravity theories,and for studies of star evolution.We are carrying out the Galactic Plane Pulsar Snapshot survey(GPPS)by using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST).Here we present the Keplerian parameters for 116 newly discovered pulsars in the FAST GPPS survey and obtain timing solutions for 29 pulsars.Companions of these pulsars are He white dwarfs(WDs),CO/ONe WDs,NSs,main sequence stars and ultra light objects or even planets.Our observations uncover eclipses of eight binary systems.The optical counterpart for the companion of PSR J1908+1036 is identified.The Post-Keplerian parameter w for the double NS systems PSR J0528+3529 and J1844-0128 have been measured,with which the total masses of the binary systems are determined.

文摘The nature of progenitors of Type Ia supernovae(SNe Ia)and their explosion mechanism remains unclear.It has been suggested that SNe Ia may have resulted from thermonuclear explosions of hybrid carbon-oxygen-neon white dwarfs(CONe WDs)when they grow in mass to approach the Chandrasekhar mass limit by accreting matter from a binary main-sequence(MS)companion.In this work,we combine the results of detailed binary evolution calculations with population synthesis models to investigate the rates and delay times of SNe Ia in the CONe WD+MS channel at a low metallicity environment of Z=0.0001.For a constant star formation rate of 5M_(⊙)yr^(−1),our calculations predict that the SN Ia rates in the CONe WD+MS channel at low metallicity of Z=0.0001 is about 0.11−3.89×10^(−4) yr^(−1).In addition,delay times in this channel cover a wide range of 0.05−2.5 Gyr.We further compare our results to those given by a previous study for the CONe WD+MS channel with a higher metallicity of Z=0.02 to explore the influence of metallicity on the results.We find that these two metallicity environments give a slight difference in rates and delay times of SNe Ia from the CONe WD+MS channel,although SNe Ia produced at a low metallicity environment of Z=0.0001 have relatively longer delay times.

文摘We present a comprehensive analysis of BI CVn,an eclipsing overcontact binary system.New BVR photometric observations,combined with available spectroscopic data,were analyzed simultaneously using the Wilson–Devinney method to derive the orbital and physical parameters of the system.The resulting stellar parameters are M1=0.58±0.01M⊙,M2=1.42±0.02M⊙,R1=0.88±0.01R⊙,R2=1.31±0.01R⊙,with an orbital separation of a=2.80±0.01R⊙.Based on all available CCD times of minimum light,including both ground-based and T ESS observations,the(O-C)diagram of BI CVn was analyzed.T he orbital period exhibits a long-term decrease at a rate of-2.3239(±0.0001)×10-8 day yr-1,likely due to mass transfer from the more massive to the less massive component.Superimposed on this trend is a cyclic variation with a period of 56.84±0.08 yr,indicative of a light-travel time effect caused by a third body,whose estimated mass is 0.63±0.02M⊙.Using these derived parameters,we modeled the binary’s evolution through non-conservative processes with the Binary Star Evolution code.The evolutionary tracks of the components were examined in multiple parameter planes,leading to an estimated merger timescale of approximately 2.70 Gyr.
