Mass Transfer in Low Mass Close Binaries
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The mass transfer process in low mass close binaries is reviewed. The driving mechanisms and the stability properties are discussed by means of general, simple formulations. A model in terms of mass transfer instabilities is suggested to explain the outbursts of GRO J1655–40 in 1994.
