Testing rotational mixing with pre-mass transfer, close binaries ? Selma de Mink and Matteo Cantiello Utrecht University
The idea • Close, pre-mass transfer, binaries are expected to show surface enrichment due to rotational mixing. • Observations of surface abundances could provide a strong test for the physics.
