Summary
[edit]DescriptionCommon envelope evolution.svg |
English: Stages in the life of a binary system as a common envelope is formed. The system has mass ratio M1/M2=3. The black line represents the inner critical Roche equipotential. The dashed line represents the rotation axis.
(a) Both stars lie within their Roche lobes, star 1 on the left (mass M1 in red) and star 2 on the right (mass M2 in orange). (b) Star 1 has grown to nearly fill its Roche lobe. (c) Star 1 has grown to overfill its Roche lobe and transfer mass to star 2: Roche lobe overflow. (d) Transferred too fast to be accreted, matter has built up around star 2. (e) A common envelope, represented schematically by an ellipse, has formed.
