By conducting three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamical simulations we find that jets that a main sequence companion launches as it orbits inside the wind acceleration zone of an asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star can efficiently remove mass…
I examine images of 50 planetary nebulae (PNe) with observable post-common envelope evolution (CEE) binary central stars and find that jets are about 40 percent more common than dense equatorial outflows. Because, in some cases, energetic…
We conduct a three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulation to study the interaction of two opposite inclined jets inside the envelope of a giant star, and find that the jets induce many vortexes inside the envelope and that they efficiently…
It has long been speculated that jet feedback from accretion onto the companion during a common envelope (CE) event could affect the orbital evolution and envelope unbinding process, but this conjecture has heretofore remained largely…
Common envelope (CE) is an important phase in the evolution of many binary systems. Giant star / compact object interaction in binaries plays an important role in high-energy phenomena as well as in the evolution of their environment.…
We conduct three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations, and show that when a secondary star launches jets while performing spiral-in motion into the envelope of a giant star, the envelope is inflated, some mass is ejected by the jets, and…
During the common envelope binary interaction, the expanding layers of the gaseous common envelope recombine and the resulting recombination energy has been suggested as a contributing factor to the ejection of the envelope. In this paper…
I consider a flow structure by which main sequence companions that enter a common envelope evolution (CEE) with giant stars might launch jets even when the accreted gas has a sub-Keplerian specific angular momentum. I first show that after…
The evolution and physics of the common envelope (CE) phase are still not well understood. Jets launched from a compact object during this stage may define the evolutionary outcome of the binary system. We focus on the case in which jets…
Three-dimensional simulations usually fail to cover the entire dynamical common-envelope phase of gravitational wave progenitor systems due to the vast range of spatial and temporal scales involved. We investigated the common-envelope…
We use three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations to study the rapid infall phase of the common envelope interaction of a red giant branch star of mass equal to 0.88 \msun and a companion star of mass ranging from 0.9 down to 0.1 \msun.…
We present small-scale three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of the evolution of a 0.3Msun main sequence star which launches two perpendicular jets within the envelope of a 0.88Msun red giant. Based on previous large-scale…
Modeling the evolution of progenitors of gravitational-wave merger events in binary stars faces two major uncertainties: the common-envelope phase and supernova kicks. These two processes are critical for the final orbital configuration of…
Recent three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamical simulations of the common-envelope interaction revealed the self-consistent formation of bipolar magnetically driven outflows launched from a toroidal structure resembling a circumbinary disk.…
We perform 3D hydrodynamical simulations of a common-envelope event involving a 12 solar mass red supergiant donor. Massive stars are expected to be qualitatively different from low-mass stars as their envelopes have significant support…
Relativistic jets can interact with the ambient gas distribution of the host galaxy, before breaking out to larger scales. In the past decade several studies have simulated jet-driven outflows to understand how they affect the nearby…
The common envelope interaction is thought to be the gateway to all evolved compact binaries and mergers. Hydrodynamic simulations of the common envelope interaction between giant stars and their companions are restricted to the dynamical,…
A binary neutron star merger has been observed in a multi-messenger detection of gravitational wave (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) radiation. Binary neutron stars that merge within a Hubble time, as well as many other compact binaries, are…
There is clear observational evidence that the main Class 0/I stages of the star formation process are associated with powerful collimated outflows (jets), which sometimes propagate up to distances as large as $10^{4-5}$ au scales in…
We conducted three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of common envelope evolution (CEE) of a neutron star (NS) or a black hole (BH) inside a red supergiant (RSG) envelope and find that the jets that we expect the NS/BH to launch during…
