Binary population synthesis predictions for helium star populations
authors
reviewer:will-blair
Intermediate-mass helium stars (2-8 solar masses) formed through common-envelope evolution in binaries are predicted to exist by the thousands in the Milky Way, with > 50% in mass-gap-relevant binary configurations containing neutron stars or black holes.
