Merger Conditions of Population III Protostar Binaries

Massive close binary stars with extremely small separations have been observed, and they are possible progenitors of gravitational-wave sources. The evolution of massive binaries in the protostellar accretion stage is key to understanding their formation process. We, therefore, investigate how close...
