The present paper is devoted to small radius accretion disk formation in microquasar CYG X-1. The results show that in the case of the strong wind action on a disk the disk radius is about of 20 ÷ 30 per sent of accretor’s Roche lobe radius (it is about of 0.08 of orbital separation) instead of the standard disk radius equal to 80 ÷ 85 per sent of accretor’s Roche lobe radius (the last magnitude is a disk radius equal to 0.22 of orbital separation). In the present paper we try to resolve the problem that is arising in the case of microquasars when we investigate the accretion disk formation in these objects. Indeed, since the microquasars are the massive close binary systems (MCBS) in which the donor is massive stars of O-B class the strong wind is blowing from these stars. In this case the problem is arising: what is the situation in which an accretion disk in microqausars is formed. By the other words, it means what are the processes and the matter that are responsible for an accretion disk formation in microquasars: is this matter from one-point stream only or a disk is formed from the donor’s wind in essential or one is formed from both processes simul- taneously. This question is not idle since one is strong affects on ON-OFF state generations in the precession mechanism model. Since this mechanism is strong depending from the magnitude of the disk centre density and all the parameters affecting on it are very important for calculations. The matter configuration in the vicinity of one-point is one of these parameters that strong affects on ON-OFF state production and disk structure and the central disk density. By this reason we have investigated in the present paper how the disk structure is depending from the wind  configuration in the vicinity of one-point.

Disk Structure

The present paper is devoted to the investigation how the disk structure is depending from the one-point wind one in microquasar CYG X-1. The results show that when the region in which the wind is absent in the vicinity of one-point has the size less or equal to 0.07 the disk radius is very small, order of 0.08 in units of orbital separation. When this size is increased to 0.115 the disk radius becomes to be of standard size to be equal to 0.22 in units of orbital separation. By the other words these results show that the disk structure is strong depending from many factors including and the donor’s wind configuration in the vicinity of one-point. This configuration is inherent to microquasars only. Indeed, since microqausars are the massive close binary systems; the donor in these systems is massive star from which the strong radiation- driving wind is blowing. On the other hand, in microquasars accretion disks are present and it means that one-point stream is also present in microqausars. It in turn means that the matter configuration in the vicinity of one-point is very complicated since the high mass loss rate donor’s wind and one-point stream must be existing in the vicinity of one-point simultaneously. This situation maybe resolved when we suppose that the central source in an accretion disk will influence on the donor’s atmosphere structure in the vicinity of  one-point and in turn will be result in the break of wind in the vicinity of one-point. This finally will be means that one-point stream will be existing in one-point without a wind and it, flowing in the accretor’s Roche lobe, will be result in an accretion disk forma- tion. Here one problem is arising: what is the configuration of wind in the extended vicinity of one-point  and from what the parameters this configuration is depending and haw this configuration will be results to the disk structure change. We good understand that this situation is arising in the case of microquasars only and we try to resolve this problem in the present paper.

SU UMa stars are one of subclasses of dwarf novae. Dwarf novae are semi-detached close binary systems in which a Roche-lobe filling red dwarf secondary loses matter and the white dwarf primary accretes it through the accretion disk. The main characteristics of SU UMa subclass is that they show two kinds of outbursts: normal outbursts and superoutbursts. In addition to the more frequent narrow outbursts of normal dwarf nova, SU UMa stars exhibit “superoutbursts”, in which stars reach about 1 magnitude brighter and stay longer than in normal outburst. Careful photometric studies during superoutburst have almost always revealed the “superhumps”: periodic humps in light curves with a period very close to the orbital period of the system. However, the most curious of all is that this superhump period is not exactly equal to the orbital period, but it is always longer by a few percent than the orbital period.

The ordinary semi-detached close binary system consists of a main-sequence primary and subgiant (or giant) secondary component where the latter fills the Roche lobe. From a quantitative analysis of the observed ellipticity effect, Kitamura and Nakamura (1986) have deduced empirical values of the exponent of gravity-darkening for distorted main-sequence stars in detached systems and found that the empirical values of the exponent for these stars with early-type spectra are close to the unity, indicating that the subsurface layers of early-main sequence stars in close binaries are actually in radiative equilibrium. The exponent of gravity-darkening can be defined by H ∝ gα with H as the bolonetric surface brightness and g as the local gravity on the stellar surface.

AbstractThis work is concerned with binary systems that we call ‘moderately close’. These are systems in which the primary (by which we mean the initially more massive star) fills its Roche lobe when it is on the giant branch with a deep convective envelope but before helium ignition (late case B). We find that if the mass ratio q(= M1/M2) < qCrit = 0.7 when the primary fills its Roche lobe positive feedback will lead to a rapid hydrodynamic phase of mass transfer which will probably lead to common envelope evolution and thence to either coalescence or possibly to a close binary in a planetary nebula. Although most Algols have probably filled their Roche lobes before evolving off the main-sequence we find that some could not have and are therefore ‘moderately close’. Since rapid overflow is unlikely to lead to an Algol-like system there must be some way of avoiding it. The most likely possibility is that the primary can lose sufficient mass to reduce q below qcrit before overflow begins. Ordinary mass loss rates are insufficient but evidence that enhanced mass loss does take place is provided by RS CVn systems that have inverted mass ratios but have not yet begun mass transfer. We postulate that the cause of enhanced mass loss lies in the heating of the corona by by magnetic fields maintained by an α-ω dynamo which is enhanced by tidal effects associated with corotation. In order to model the the effects of enhanced mass loss we ignore the details and adopt an empirical approach calibrating a simple formula with the RS CVn system Z Her. Using further empirical relations (deduced from detailed stellar models) that describe the evolution of red giants we have investigated the effect on a large number of systems of various initial mass ratios and periods. These are notable in that some systems can now enter a much gentler Algol-like overflow phase and others are prevented from transferring mass altogether. We have also investigated the effects of enhanced angular momentum loss induced by corotation of the wind in the strong magnetic fields and consider this in relation to observed period changes. We find that a typical ‘moderately close’ Algol-like system evolves through an RS CVn like system and then possibly a symbiotic state before becoming an Algol and then goes on through a red giant-white dwarf state which may become symbiotic before ending up as a double white dwarf system in either a close or wide orbit depending on how much mass is lost before the secondary fills its Roche lobe.

It becomes more and more evident that for close binary evolution during Roche lobe overflow as well mass transfer as mass loss occurs. When a mass element ΔM is expelled from the primary during this phase, a fraction β is transferred to the secondary; the remaining part leaves the system. Moreover, angular momentum leaves the system, and also this fraction has to be specified; this fraction is related to a parameter α (Vanbeveren et al., 1979). For the computation of the evolution of massive close binaries also mass loss due to stellar wind of both components, prior to the Roche lobe overflow has to be taken into account. The mass loss rate Ṁ due to radiation driven stellar winds can be expressed as

Ia Supernovae

Type Ia supernovae are very good, but not perfect, standard candles, because their observed brightness shows a little diversity. The origin of this dibersity needs to be understood for the application to cosmology.In close binary systems, a white dwarf must be rotating faster and faster as it gains angular momentum from the accretion disk. Its rapid rotation affects its final mass and strucure just before a supernova expolosion. Brightness of supernovae can be changed if mass of their progenitors have some diversity.

The Difference

Novae (N) and Dwarf Novae (DN) are considered to belong to the class of the Cataclysmic Variables (CVs). The Novalike stars and recently discovered Polars (the AM Herculis-type stars) seem to have the same nature as CVs and probably are members of this class. It is usually assumed that CVs are close binary systems, each system contains a degenerate dwarf and a nondegenerate second component, their period being usually less than 16h (e.g. see: Robinson 1976). A second star is believed to overfill its Roche lobe and its matter flows onto the degenerated component. Then around the degenerated dwarf there arises an accretion disk. This disk and the hot spot where the interaction between the disk and outflowing stream occurs are the main sources of the blue and ultraviolet continuum and strong H and He emission lines.
