Comparison of astrospheres around cool and hot stars [PDF]
Simulations of astrospheres around hot and cool stars have recently move into the focus of scientific research. We describe here the differences between the astrospheres around hot and cool stars. While those around the former are huge (on pc scales) because of their high stellar wind momentum flow, those around cool stars are on a AU scale and the ...

Magnetic Reconnection at Planetary Bodies and Astrospheres [PDF]
AbstractMagnetic reconnection is a fundamental mechanism for the transport of mass and energy in planetary magnetospheres and astrospheres. While the process of reconnection is itself ubiquitous across a multitude of systems, the techniques used for its analysis can vary across scientific disciplines.

MHD-shock structures of astrospheres: λ Cephei -like astrospheres [PDF]
ABSTRACT The interpretation of recent observations of bow shocks around O-stars and the creation of corresponding models require a detailed understanding of the associated (magneto-)hydrodynamic structures. We base our study on 3D numerical (magneto-)hydrodynamical models, which are analysed using the dynamically relevant parameters, in ...

Modelling O-star astrospheres with different relative speeds between the ISM and the star: 2D and 3D MHD model comparison [PDF]
Context. State of the art simulations of astrospheres are modelled using three-dimensional (3D) magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). An astrospheric interaction of a stellar wind (SW) with its surrounding interstellar medium (ISM) can only generate a bow shock if

Lyman-α observations of astrospheres [PDF]
Abstract. Charge-exchange reactions between outflowing stellar wind protons and interstellar neutral hydrogen atoms entering a stellar astrosphere produce a region of piled-up-decelerated neutral hydrogen called the hydrogen wall. Absorption by this gas, which is observed in stellar Lyman-α emission lines, provides the only viable technique at this ...

The characteristics of the astrospheres of convective dwarf stars, such as their radii, mass loss rates, and steady-state outflow rates, are shown by dimensional considerations to be related by simple analytic formulas to the basic parameters of the stars, their mass, radius, and rotation velocity.

X-ray detection of astrospheres around three main-sequence stars and their mass-loss rates [PDF]
Stellar winds of cool main-sequence stars are difficult to constrain observationally. One way to measure stellar mass-loss rates is to detect the soft X-ray emission from stellar astrospheres produced by charge exchange between heavy ions of the stellar ...

On the Diversity of M-star Astrospheres and the Role of Galactic Cosmic Rays Within [PDF]
Abstract With upcoming missions such as the James Webb Space Telescope, the European Extremely Large Telescope, and the Atmospheric Remote-sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large-survey, we soon will be on the verge of detecting and characterizing Earth-like exoplanetary atmospheres for the first time.

On the 3D transport of galactic cosmic rays in a selection of exoplanet-hosting astrospheres: the influence of stellar rotation [PDF]
Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) may influence the habitability of exoplanets. The recently proposed relationship between GCR intensities at exoplanetary locations and the rotation periods of their host stars is here investigated for several M-dwarf ...
