| « Stellar interactions & gravitational wave sources » |
|
Silvia Toonen |
| Stars are the fundamental building blocks of galaxies and stellar clusters. They are often part of small stellar systems, such as binaries in which the stars can interact with each other, leading to stellar feedback, bright and energetic transients, and drastic changes to the system itself. The most extreme binaries are the compact ones containing white dwarfs, neutron stars & black holes, which are prime sources for the current and upcoming gravitational wave (GW) facilities, such as LISA and the Einstein Telescope. In this talk, I will review our current expectations for these sources in terms of detections and science objectives in the GW era. I will cover the plentiful double white dwarf binaries, as well as the exotic black hole triples. |
