Cataclysmic variables in globular clusters . First results on the analysis of the MOCCA simulations database
(2016) In Memorie della Societa Astronomica Italiana - Journal of the Italian Astronomical Society 87. p.551-551- Abstract
- In this first investigation of the MOCCA database with respect to cataclysmic variables, we found that for models with Kroupa initial distributions, considering the standard value of the efficiency of the common-envelope phase adopted in BSE, no single cataclysmic variable was formed only via binary stellar evolution, i. e., in order to form them, strong dynamical interactions have to take place. Our results also indicate that the population of cataclysmic variables in globular clusters are, mainly, in the last stage of their evolution and observational selection effects can change drastically the expected number and properties of observed cataclysmic variables.
