Recent observations of PSR J0045-7319, a radio pulsar in a close eccentric orbit with a massive B-star companion, indicate that the system's orbital period is decreasing on a timescale of $\approx 5 \times10^{5}$ years, which is much…
The orbital period of the binary pulsar PSR J0045-7319, which is located in our neighbouring galaxy the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), appears to be decreasing on a timescale of half a million year. This timescale is more than two orders of…
Recent timing observations of PSR J0045-7319 reveal that the neutron star/B star binary orbit is decaying on a time scale of $|\Porb/\dot\Porb|=0.5$ Myr, shorter than the characteristic age ($\tau_c=3$ Myr) of the pulsar (Kaspi et…
We study the effect of rotation on the excitation of internal oscillation modes of a star by the external gravitational potential of its companion. Unlike the nonrotating case, there are difficulties with the usual mode decomposition for…
Recent timing observations have revealed the presence of orbital precession due to spin-orbit coupling and rapid orbital decay due to dynamical tidal interaction in the PSR J0045-7319/B-star binary system. They can be used to put concrete…
Tidal evolution of eccentric binary systems containing at least one massive main-sequence (MS) star plays an important role in the formation scenarios of merging compact-object binaries. The dominant dissipation mechanism in such systems…
Short-period binary star systems dissipate orbital energy through tidal interactions that lead to tighter, more circular orbits. When at least one star in a binary has evolved off of the main sequence, orbital circularization occurs for…
We study the tidal evolution of a binary system consisting of a 1.4 Msun compact object in elliptic orbit about a 10 Msun uniformly rotating main sequence star for various values of the initial orbital parameters. We apply our previously…
We present optical and infrared observations taken with the Very Large Telescope of the eclipsing binary pulsar system PSR B1718-19. The candidate companion of the pulsar, identified earlier in Hubble Space Telescope observations, has been…
We have carried out high-precision timing measurements of the binary millisecond pulsar PSR J2051$-$0827 with the Effelsberg 100-m radio telescope of the Max-Planck-Institut f\"ur Radioastronomie and with the Lovell 76-m radio telescope at…
The apsidal motion of a non-synchronous binary pulsar serves as a valuable probe of relativistic gravity, stellar stricture, and dynamical evolution of close binary systems, In this study, we investigate the combined influence of general…
We report on Keck and Hubble Space Telescope optical observations of the eclipsing binary pulsar system PSR B1718-19, in the direction of the globular cluster NGC 6342. These reveal a faint star ($m_{\rm F702W}=25.21\pm0.07$; Vega system)…
In close binary stars, the tidal excitation of pulsations typically dissipates energy, causing the system to evolve towards a circular orbit with aligned and synchronized stellar spins. However, for stars with self-excited pulsations, we…
The spin-induced quadrupole moment of a rapidly rotating star changes the orbital dynamics in a binary system, giving rise to advance (or regression) of periastron and precession of the orbital plane. We show that these effects are…
Tidal dissipation is responsible for circularizing the orbits and synchronizing the spins of solar-type close binary stars, but the mechanisms responsible are not fully understood. Previous work has indicated that significant enhancements…
The huge derivative of orbital period observed in binary pulsar PSR B1259-63, the torque reversal displaying on low mass X-ray binary, 4U1627-67 and the long term change of orbital period of PSR J2051-0827, seem totally unrelated phenomena…
The post-Keplerian(PK) parameters inferred from pulsar timing provide a convenient way to test Einstein's general theory of relativity. However, before obtaining a pure orbital decay $\dot{P}_b$ induced by gravitational wave radiation,…
We have conducted timing observations of the eclipsing millisecond binary pulsar PSR~B1957+20, extending the span of data on this pulsar to more than five years. During this time the orbital period of the system has varied by roughly…
We have carried out high-precision timing observations of the eclipsing binary PSR J2051-0827 in the 3.3 years since its discovery. These data indicate that the orbital period is decreasing at a rate of dPb/dt = (-11+-1)X10^-12. If secular,…
The orbital decay of binaries containing a primary sub-giant or red giant star and a stellar or substellar companion is investigated. The tide raised in the primary by the companion leads to an exchange of angular momentum between the orbit…
