Table 1:
Types of compact stellar remnants (the ranges of progenitor mass are shown for solar composition stars). |
Table 2:
Observed parameters of double neutron star binaries. |
Table 3:
Derived parameters of double neutron star binaries |
Table 4:
Examples of the estimates for Galactic merger rates of relativistic binaries calculated under different assumptions on the parameters entering population synthesis. |
Table 5:
Occurrence rates of SNe Ia in the candidate progenitor systems (in yr–1), after [468]. SG stands for sub-giant, RG for red giant, and XRS for X-ray source. |
