Keynote

Majority of stars in the Universe exist in gravitationally bound binaries and hierarchical multiple systems. Interactions in binary star systems, such as transfer of mass between components, mergers, and explosions, significantly alter stellar evolutionary pathways. The resulting systems can range from mundane to exotic and include gravitational-wave sources and a variety of astrophysical...
