Black Hole Creation in Massive Binary Systems

Two different types of stellar BH formation exist: (1) direct core collapse  of a massive star and (2) AIC of a NS.  

A BH of the first type presumably will have a mass comparable to that of the collapsing star and can be born both from a single star and in a binary system. The AIC BH can be formed only in binary systems. Their masses must be much lower, about the Oppenheimer-Volkoff limit,  tex2html_wrap_inline11453 , and the number of such AIC BH will be sensitive to this limit. AIC BH can be formed at the stage of supercritical accretion   in a binary system at high accretion rates tex2html_wrap_inline11455  yrtex2html_wrap_inline8853. An effective means of formation of such BH can be spiral-in  of a NS in the extended atmosphere of the giant companion at the common envelope (CE)  stage (Chevalier, 1993[31]), when neutrino  losses can effectively remove the gravitational energy released, and a Bondi-Hoyle accretion  may be established. The characteristic time of mass growth of the NS at this stage is only five to seven times less than the time-scale of angular momentum drag due to spiral-in  (Chevalier, 1993)[31], so AIC BH with masses close to the OV-limit in circular orbits around the remaining star core (a Wolf-Rayet star (WR) or a white dwarf (WD))  will form, unless the spiral-in  ends by coalescence of the compact star with the stellar core and formation of a Thorne-Zytkow object.  Some BH binaries thus formed can be disrupted during a second supernova explosion.  The remaining WR+BH binaries will yield PSR+BH systems. Firm theoretical estimation of the number of AIC BH is very difficult, however one can evaluate their possible number from the observational data.

At present about a dozen single-line WR stars with suspected binary companions are known (Cherepashchuk, 1991[30]), some of which can be considered as progenitors of these binary pulsars  (namely, those which produce notable X-rays). We can make a simple estimation:

Here tex2html_wrap_inline11459  yr and tex2html_wrap_inline11461 -3 tex2html_wrap_inline8845 tex2html_wrap_inline9939  yr are typical pulsar and WR lifetimes, respectively. N(WR+compact) relates mainly to WR+NS that produce no X-rays due to fast rotation of the magnetized NS (see Lipunov, 1992[107], p. 293). In reality, we know only one WR-star with a compact X-ray companion, Cyg X-3  (van Kerkwijk, 1993[206]), so we must reduce the upper limit by 10 times . Taking the total galactic number of pulsars tex2html_wrap_inline8945 3 tex2html_wrap_inline8845 tex2html_wrap_inline9939 , we obtain the expected fraction of binary PSR+AIC BH ( tex2html_wrap_inline11475 0.1 per 1000 isolated pulsars). Although we believe that the real number of PSR+AIC BH may be much smaller, we note nevertheless that the distribution of such binary pulsars  on orbital periods will significantly differ from that of PSR+BH formed from massive stars, in having shorter orbital periods of several hours to several days.
