We propose a scenario where a companion that is about to exit a common envelope evolution (CEE) with a giant star accretes mass from the remaining envelope outside its deep orbit and launches jets that facilitate the removal of the…

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.…

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…

Common-envelope evolution is a stage in binary system evolution in which a giant star engulfs a companion. The standard energy formalism is an analytical framework to estimate the amount of energy transferred from the companion's shrinking…

We use an analytic framework to calculate the evolution of binary orbits under a physically-motivated model that accounts for angular momentum loss associated with winds from an accretion disk around the compact objected accretor. Our…

Some binary stars experience common envelope evolution, which is accompanied by drastic loss of angular momentum, mass, and orbital energy and which leaves behind close binaries often involving at least one white dwarf, neutron star, or…

I study some aspects of common envelope evolution, where a compact star enters the envelope of a giant star. I show that in some binary systems under a narrow range of parameters, a substantial fraction of the giant stellar envelope is lost…

We examine the effects of the engulfment of planets by giant stars on the evolution of late-type stars. We show that the rate at which dynamo-generated magnetic energy is being released exceeds 10% of the wind kinetic energy when the…

We investigate the mass loss from a rotationally distorted envelope following the early, rapid in-spiral of a companion star inside a common envelope. For initially wide, massive binaries (M_1+M_2=20M_{\odot}, P\sim 10 yr), the primary has…

I propose a scenario that allows white dwarfs (WDs) to launch relatively powerful jets when they enter a common envelope evolution (CEE) or experience a grazing envelope evolution (GEE) with a red giant branch star (RGB) or an asymptotic…

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…

We find that the convective motion in the envelopes of red supergiant (RSG) stars supplies a non-negligible stochastic angular momentum to the mass that a secondary star accretes in a common envelope evolution (CEE), such that jets that the…

After the companion dynamically plunges through the primary's envelope, the two cores remain surrounded by a common envelope and the decrease of the orbital period $P_\text{orb}$ stalls. The subsequent evolution has never been…

We investigate the evolution of interacting binaries where the donor star is a low-mass giant more massive than its companion. It is usual to assume that such systems undergo common-envelope (CE) evolution, where the orbital energy is used…

We consider the spin angular momentum evolution of the accreting components of Algol-type binary stars. In wider Algols the accretion is through a disc so that the accreted material can transfer enough angular momentum to the gainer that…

Planets and other low-mass binary companions to stars face a variety of potential fates as their host stars move off the main sequence and grow to subgiants and giants. Stellar mass loss tends to make orbits expand, and tidal torques tend…

We examine the nature and role of mass loss via an equatorial decretion disk in massive stars with near-critical rotation induced by evolution of the stellar interior. In contrast to the usual stellar wind mass loss set by exterior driving…

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…

The hydrodynamic evolution of the common envelope phase of a low mass binary composed of a 1.05 Msun red giant and a 0.6 Msun companion has been followed for five orbits of the system using a high resolution method in three spatial…

I review the process of mass transfer in a binary system through a stellar wind, with an emphasis on systems containing a red giant. I show how wind accretion in a binary system is different from the usually assumed Bondi-Hoyle…
