Massive binary mergers and thorne-zytkow objects

Abstract:
Some 10% of all massive stars are predicted to merge completely with a companion star. Here we review the different types of mergers and how they may produce unusual objects such as the anomalous progenitor of SN 1987A, gamma-ray burst sources and Thorne-Zytkow objects.
