Journal ArticleDOI
The origin of binary stars
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that although we have a general understanding of the manner in which individual stars form, our understanding of how binary stars form is far from complete, in large part due to the f...

Eclipsing binaries in open clusters – I. V615 Per and V618 Per in h Persei
TL;DR: In this article, the absolute dimensions for two early-type main-sequence detached eclipsing binaries in the young open cluster h Persei (NGC 869) were derived using high-resolution spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stellar rotation and magnetic stars
David Moss,R C Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider how rotation and magnetism affect the life history of a star from its formation through the main-sequence phases to its post-main-sequence evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Low-Mass-ratio Stellar Binary Systems
TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique sensitive to G and K-type companions to early B stars, a mass ratio of roughly 0.1, using high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectra was described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Binary fission via lnviscid Trajectories
TL;DR: In this article, the authors sketch an evolutionary picture which, unlike the classical picture, appears favorable to the hypothesis that close binary stars originate in the fission of a single slowly contracting protostar.
