Current Interests


During last few years together with Peter B. Marks and Jelena Antipova we have prepared and developed a binary stars code in which two components are computed essentially simultaneously. The time dependent structure of the stars is computed by a standard Henyey method in which we included explicit calculations of the isotopes evolution, newest opacity table and equation of state. This numerical code was used to investigate four types of problem and verification of the observatial data.
