Probing the mass-loss history of AGB and red supergiant stars from CO rotational line profiles - II. CO line survey of evolved stars: derivation of mass-loss rate formulae [PDF]

, 2010
We aim to (1) set up simple and general analytical expressions to estimate mass-loss rates of evolved stars, and (2) from those calculate estimates for the mass-loss rates of asymptotic giant branch (AGB), red supergiant (RSG), and yellow hypergiant ...

On the reliability of mass-loss-rate estimates for AGB stars

, 2008
In the recent literature there has been some doubt as to the reliability of CO multi-transitional line observations as a mass-loss-rate estimator for AGB stars.

Mass-Loss from Spinning Stars [PDF]

Highlights of Astronomy, 1980
AbstractThe effects of mass-loss and angular momentum loss on the evolution of massive stars are discussed bringing out the main results as well as the limitations of recent studies. It is pointed out that an acceptable theory of stellar winds in early as well as late type stars is needed as well as a satisfactory assessment of a number of ...

Classical Cepheids Require Enhanced Mass Loss

, 2012
Measurements of rates of period change of Classical Cepheids probe stellar physics and evolution. Additionally, better understanding of Cepheid structure and evolution provides greater insight into their use as standard candles and tools for measuring ...

Prevalence and Trajectory of Household Material Hardship Among Children With Advanced Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Families of children with advanced cancer living in poverty experience inferior outcomes including poor parent mental health and worse child quality of life. Household material hardship (HMH: food, housing, transportation, and/or utility insecurity) is a modifiable poverty exposure—and potential intervention target—that ...

Long-Term and Inter-annual Mass Changes in the Iceland Ice Cap Determined From GRACE Gravity Using Slepian Functions

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019
The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites have measured anomalies in the Earth's time-variable gravity field since 2002, allowing for the measurement of the melting of glaciers due to climate change.

Global hot-star wind models for stars from Magellanic Clouds

, 2017
We provide mass-loss rate predictions for O stars from Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. We calculate global (unified, hydrodynamic) model atmospheres of main sequence, giant, and supergiant stars for chemical composition corresponding to Magellanic ...

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

The transition mass-loss rate: Calibrating the role of line-driven winds in massive star evolution

, 2012
A debate has arisen regarding the importance of stationary versus eruptive mass loss for massive star evolution. The reason is that stellar winds have been found to be clumped, which results in the reduction of unclumped empirical mass-loss rates.
