Red Supergiant Mass Loss and Mass-Loss Rates

open access: yesGalaxies
This review discusses the causes, nature, importance and observational evidence of mass loss by red supergiants. It arrives at the perception that mass loss finds its origin in the gravity which makes the star a star in the first place, and is a ...

Mass loss and supernova progenitors [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2007
We first discuss the mass range of type IIP SN progenitors and how the upper and lower limits impose interesting constraints on stellar evolution. Then we discuss the possible implications of two SNe, 2002ap and 2006jc, for Wolf-Rayet star mass-loss ...

Advances in mass-loss predictions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present the results of Monte Carlo mass-loss predictions for massive stars covering a wide range of stellar parameters. We critically test our predictions against a range of observed mass-loss rates -- in light of the recent discussions on wind ...

Mass loss [PDF]

open access: yes
Observational evidence for mass loss from cool stars is reviewed. Spectra line profiles are used for the derivation of mass-loss rates with the aid of the equation of continuity. This equation implies steady mass loss with spherical symmetry.

AGB mass loss [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011
AbstractMass loss on the AGB removes most of the envelope and leaves a compact remnant to become a white dwarf and perhaps first the central star of a planetary nebula. The envelope mass provides an upper limit on the material available to form the PN, and the terminal mass loss rate plus the small remnant mass left on the core determines how much of ...

Sarcopenic obesity and weight loss-induced muscle mass loss. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care
Purpose of review Sarcopenic obesity is a clinical condition characterized by the coexistence of excess adiposity and impaired muscle function, associated with heightened cardiometabolic risk and frailty. The emergence of new incretin-based obesity management medications (OMMs), which allow unprecedented weight loss, has raised

Ice Mass Loss in the Central Andes of Argentina Between 2000 and 2018 Derived From a New Glacier Inventory and Satellite Stereo-Imagery

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Based on the recently released National Glacier Inventory (NGI), we analyzed the characteristics and the mass balance rates of ice masses in the Argentinean Central Andes (ca. 30°–37° S).

Impact of Heat Treatment of Spruce Wood on Its Fire-Technical Characteristics Based on Density and the Side Exposed to Fire

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The paper assessed the impact of the heat treatment of spruce wood, the (radial and tangential) side of the specimens exposed to fire, and the type of material (prism—higher density, floor—lower density) on the combustion process and the rate of fire ...

Partitioning Recent Greenland Mass Loss [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2009
GRACE and Movement Together Recent measurements of the rate of mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet vary approximately by a factor of three. Resolving these discrepancies is essential for determining the current mass balance of the ice sheet and to project sea level rise in the future. Van den Broeke
