STScI Workshop on
Massive Stars8 - 11 May 2006
Baltimore
Multiplicity of Massive Stars -Clues and Consequences
Hans Zinnecker (AIP, Potsdam, Germany)
goal of this short contribution
- remind you of high incidence of binaries,triples, and Trapezium systems
- remind you of preponderance of close massive binaries(SB2, SB1, eclipsing binaries)
- new idea to explain the origin of Trapezium systems
- new idea to explain the origin of the close binaries
goal of this short contribution (ctd.)
- Example: The Orion Trapezium Cluster(origin and future evolution)
- Question: seperations and mass ratiosfor massive close binariesto become ``interactive´´?(case A, B, C mass transfer)
RLOF: mass / A.M. accretion efficiency?LBV: violent mass loss (stellar wind),
onset at which initial stellar mass?
stellar rejuvenation? population synthesis!

Young, massive Orion Trapezium multiples:
orbital motion, stellar masses, & ages
other relevant considerations (not today)
- formation clues from observed multiplicity trendsin different stellar environments
- consequences of multiplicities for runaways,non-local supernovae, starburst population synthesisincluding exotic products of binary stellar evolution(high mass X-ray binaries, binary pulsars, TZ-objects)
outline of this talk- quick summary of multiplicity observations for massive stars (spectroscopic, speckle, adaptive optics, HST/FGS observations)
- example: the multiplicities of the Orion Trapezium stars and the companion star frequency of high-mass vs. low-mass stars
- SPH simulations: hierarchical star cluster formation and the merging of subclusters as a model for the origin of Trapezia
- origin due to formation or early dynamical N-body evolution (accretion onto low-mass binary, hardening of a wide-binary)
outline of another talk (not today)
- massive binaries in different stellar environments: young clusters rich and poor, OB associations, runaway stars
- stellar evolution of massive tight binaries (RLOF; mergers) high-mass X-ray binaries, supernova kicks, gamma-ray bursts

Origin of close binary systems
(Bonnell & Bate 2005)
Idea:wide low-mass binary
mass + A.M. accretion
close high-mass binary
Origin of close binary systems
Another (older) idea:
shrinking (hardening)of wide high-mass binary systems
by close stellar encountersin dense clusters
(energy exchange in multiple systems)
Future stellar evolutionof the close binariesin the Orion Trapezium Cluster
Case A mass transfer: P ~ 10 dCase B mass transfer: P ~ 100 dCase C mass transfer: P ~ 1000 d

Conclusions---------------
1) Some of the most exciting cosmic phenemena due to the presence of massive close binaries
2) Studies of star forming regions & young clusters allow us to observe binary parameter
distributions
give extra info on massive star formation provide I.C. for models of interacting binary evol
3) We all need to learn more about binary evolution!
4) Orion and other nearby clusters as starting point
Conclusions (ctd.)
4) Dynamical interactions also important (ejections, runaway stars) and generally underestimated…
5) Orion Trapezium cluster and other nearby young clusters as a starting point (link I.C. to evolutionary consequences)
PS. Watch out for ARAA review on massive star formation in preparation by YORKE & ZINNECKER 2007
consequences
a) implications of high-mass multiplicity
derive stellar masses (eclipsing SB2)correct upper IMF slope (steepening)
correct cluster vel. dispersion (dyn. mass)origin of runaway OB stars (ejection)
high-mass X-ray binaries (stellar mass BH)colliding winds, orbital drag & decay
effect on WR & SN-II progenitor massesdistance determination using eclipsing SB2
consequences
b) questions related to multiplicity
very massive stars (M > 100 Mo)through binary mergers?
multiplicity of isolatedmassive stars in the field?
multiplicity and stellar rotationof the components?
multiplicity in low-metallicityenvironments (LMC / SMC)?
multiplicity among massive stars
M > 8 M
SpT earlier B2conclusions:
1) Trapezia within Orion Trapezium
2) preponderance of tight binariesSB1: q 1 lower massesSB2: q = 1 higher masses
3) 20 out of 25 O-stars are triple, consisting of SB + VB pairs (Mason)
4) multiplicity among massive stars higher than among low-mass (3x)
