Binary population synthesis: Theory and applications

Binary population synthesis can be an important toot to link binary evolution theory with observed classes of binaries. Here we review some of its limitations and illustrate how it can be used effectively to study well-defined problems, using low-/intermediate-mass X-ray binaries, cataclysmic variab...

description Binary population synthesis can be an important toot to link binary evolution theory with observed classes of binaries. Here we review some of its limitations and illustrate how it can be used effectively to study well-defined problems, using low-/intermediate-mass X-ray binaries, cataclysmic variables and Type Ia supemova progenitors as case studies.
