Evolution of Stellar Activity and Habitable Zone. I. Ultraviolet Emission of Dwarfs in Open Clusters and Field Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Near-ultraviolet (NUV) radiation from dwarf stars plays a critical role in shaping the habitability of planetary systems, yet its long-term evolution across different spectral types remains poorly investigated.

Early star formation and the evolution of the stellar initial mass function in galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998
It has frequently been suggested that the stellar IMF in galaxies was top-heavy at early times. This would be plausible physically if the IMF depends on a mass scale such as the Jeans mass that was higher at earlier times because of the generally higher temperatures that were present then. In this paper it is suggested, on the basis of current evidence

Dependence of Planet Populations on Stellar Mass and Metallicity: A Pebble-accretion-based Planet Population Synthesis Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The formation and evolution of planetary systems are linked to their host stellar environment. In this study, we employ a pebble-accretion-based planet population synthesis model to explore the correlation between planetary properties and stellar mass ...

Interactions between exoplanets and the winds of young stars

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
The topology of the magnetic field of young stars is important not only for the investigation of magnetospheric accretion, but also responsible in shaping the large-scale structure of stellar winds, which are crucial for regulating the rotation evolution

Disintegrating Multiple Systems in Early Stellar Evolution

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2000
An analysis of the multiplicity of 14 sources driving giant Herbig-Haro flows has revealed an observed binary frequency between 79% and 86%, of which half are higher order multiples. These sources represent the hitherto youngest sample of stars examined for binarity.

Barred Galaxies in MaNGA: Stellar Mass Dependence and Black Hole Growth

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This study investigates the role of internal structures, such as stellar bars and active galactic nuclei (AGN), in shaping galaxy evolution using 7408 galaxies (2641 barred) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point ...

Metallicity Gradients in Modern Cosmological Simulations. I. Tension between Smooth Stellar Feedback Models and Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The metallicity of galaxies, and its variation with galactocentric radius, provides key insights into the formation histories of galaxies and the physical processes driving their evolution.

Chemical Evolution of Heavy Elements in the Early Galaxy: Implications for Stellar Sources [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2008
AbstractAn overview of the sources for heavy elements in the early Galaxy is given. It is shown that observations of abundances in metal-poor stars can be used along with a basic understanding of stellar models to guide the search for the source of the heavy r-process nuclei (r-nuclei).

The Evolution of Substructure during Star Cluster Assembly

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Star cluster formation and assembly occur inside filamentary and turbulent molecular clouds, which imprint both spatial and kinematic substructure on the young cluster.
