Sharing is caring: how do binary stars actually transfer mass?
Mass transfer is a fundamental parameter for determining how binary stars evolve. A 3D hydrodynamic simulation enables real-time movies of how material moves from one star to another!
How stars dust themselves off and emerge from their hidden birthplaces
When stars are born, they’re hidden behind dust and dense gas. How long will it take them to emerge?
