Coronae of Zero/Low-metal, Low-mass Stars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Abstract Recent theoretical studies suggest the existence of low-mass, zero-metal stars in the current universe. To study the basic properties of the atmosphere of low-mass first stars, we perform one-dimensional magnetohydrodynamical simulations for the heating of coronal loops on low-mass stars with various metallicities.

A New Look at an Old Cluster: The Membership, Rotation, and Magnetic Activity of Low-mass Stars in the 1.3 Gyr Old Open Cluster NGC 752 [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
The nearby open cluster NGC 752 presents a rare opportunity to study stellar properties at ages >1 Gyr. However, constructing a membership catalog for it is challenging; most surveys have been limited to identifying its giants and dwarf members earlier ...

Diverse outcomes of planet formation and composition around low-mass stars and brown dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
The detection of Earth-size exoplanets around low-mass stars –in stars such as Proxima Centauri and TRAPPIST-1– provide an exceptional chance to improve our understanding of the formation of planets around M stars and brown dwarfs.

Improving PARSEC models for very low mass stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Many stellar models present difficulties in reproducing basic observational relations of very low mass stars (VLMS), including the mass--radius relation and the optical colour--magnitudes of cool dwarfs. Here, we improve PARSEC models on these points. We

Multiepoch Ultraviolet HST Observations of Accreting Low-mass Stars [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Variability is a defining characteristic of young low-mass stars that are still accreting material from their primordial protoplanetary disk. Here we present the largest Hubble Space Telescope (HST) variability study of classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) to ...

Effective temperature and the light curve solution of contact binary systems [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2023
With an increasing number of contact binary discoveries and the recognition that luminous red novae are the result of contact binary merger events, there has been a significant increase in the number of light curve solutions appearing in the ...

Rotation of Low-mass Stars in Upper Scorpius and ρ Ophiuchus with K2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We present an analysis of K2 light curves (LCs) for candidate members of the young Upper Sco (USco) association (∼8 Myr) and the neighboring ρ Oph embedded cluster (∼1 Myr). We establish ∼1300 stars as probable members, ∼80% of which are periodic.

Chemical mixing in low mass stars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Context. When modelling stars with masses higher than 1.2 M⊙ with no observed chemical peculiarity, atomic diffusion is often neglected because, on its own, it causes unrealistic surface abundances compared with those observed. The reality is that atomic

Low-Mass Versus High-Mass Star Formation [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
Structures like the clumps identified in the CO maps of the Rosette Molecular Cloud and the dense cores such as those in B5, a cluster of cores and young low-mass stars, are key to considerations of star formation. Whether star formation is a self-inducing process or one that causes itself to turn off depends greatly on whether the responses of the ...
