  1. Delayed and Displaced: The Impact of Binary Interactions on Core-collapse SN Feedback

    Publication
    Core-collapse supernova feedback models in hydrodynamical simulations typically assume that all stars evolve as single stars. However, the majority of massive stars are formed in binaries and …

  2. Implications of modern mass-loss rates for massive stars

    Publication
    Massive stars lose a significant fraction of their mass through stellar winds at various stages of their lives, including on the main sequence, during the red supergiant phase …

  3. cogsworth: A Gala of COSMIC Proportions Combining Binary Stellar Evolution and Galactic Dynamics

    Publication
    We present cogsworth, an open-source Python tool for producing self-consistent population synthesis and galactic dynamics simulations. cogsworth allows users to (1) sample a population of binaries …

  5. Close Encounters of Wide Binaries Induced by the Galactic Tide: Implications for Stellar Mergers and Gravitational-wave Sources

    Publication
    A substantial fraction of stars can be found in wide binaries with projected separations between \(\sim10^2\) and \(10^5\,\rm AU\). In the standard lore of binary …
