The outflow of an object traveling in a fluid can shape the fluid morphology by forming a forward bow shock which accelerates the object via gravitational feedback. This dynamical effect, namely "dynamical anti-friction", has been studied…
Binaries and higher order systems can experience mass transfer events between their components. The angular momentum carried by the gained mass can change the observable parameters of the accretor and spin it up to critical rotation. In…
The stability of mass transfer is critical in determining pathways towards various kinds of compact binaries, such as compact main-sequence white-dwarf binaries, and transients, such as double white-dwarf mergers and luminous red novae.…

Rapidly accreting massive protostars undergo a phase of deuterium shell burning during pre-main sequence evolution that causes them to swell to tenths of an AU in radius. During this phase, those with close binary companions will overflow…
