Scenario Machine: Interactive Binary Star Builder
Explore various evolutionary scenarios for binaries at
http://xray.sai.msu.ru/sciwork/scenario.html
You may want to begin with
A = 600, M1 = 3, M2 = 2,
and increase/decrease the orbital distance by a factor of 10.
Questions:
- What type of systems are produced along evolutionary sequences?
- How to change parameters to produce a system consisting of a neutron star and a white dwarf?
