Investigating the Chemically Homogeneous Evolution Channel and Its Role in the Formation of the Enigmatic Binary Black Hole Progenitor Candidate HD 5980
Chemically homogeneous evolution (CHE) is a promising channel for forming massive binary black holes. The enigmatic, massive Wolf–Rayet binary HD 5980 A&B has been proposed to have formed through this channel. We investigate this claim by comparing its observed parameters with CHE models. Using...
