Theoretical Models for the Late Thermal Pulse in Post-asymptotic Giant Branch Stars: The Case of DY Cen

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present theoretical predictions of the born-again scenario for post-asymptotic giant branch stars. An extensive model grid for born-again objects has been constructed, particularly including models for the very late thermal pulse with and without ...

Shaping the horizontal branch: The role of envelope mass in the evolution of stripped core-helium-burning stars

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The location of a star along the horizontal branch (HB) during core-helium burning is primarily determined by the amount of mass lost by its progenitor.

On the Pre‐ and Post‐Positional Semi‐Random Graph Processes

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 819-831, April 2025.
ABSTRACT We study the semi‐random graph process, and a variant process recently suggested by Nick Wormald. We show that these two processes are asymptotically equally fast in constructing a semi‐random graph G $G$ that has property P ${\mathscr{P}}$, for the following examples of P ${\mathscr{P}}$: (1) P ${\mathscr{P}}$ is the set of graphs containing ...

Synthesis of Organic and Inorganic Compounds in Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars

open access: yesGalaxies
After the synthesis of carbon in the core of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, carbon is dredged up to the surface by convection. Many carbon-based molecules are formed in the subsequently developed stellar wind.

Multiepoch Optical Spectroscopy of the Post-AGB Star HD 161796

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
The evolutionary rate of the pulsating post–asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) star HD 161796 was suspected to be high. Spectra of HD 161796 acquired during a time span of 18 yr are analyzed with the main goal of determining the evolutionary increase in ...

Ecological Implications of Germination Temperature on Native and Invasive Rumex Spp.

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Rumex alpinus L. (R. alpinus) is a non‐native invasive plant in Czech mountain regions, altering ecosystem structure and function in protected areas. Rumex obtusifolius L. (R. obtusifolius) is a native species and a problematic weed in Czech meadows, while Rumex longifolius DC. (R.

Evidence for the Disruption of a Planetary System During the Formation of the Helix Nebula

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2022
The persistence of planetary systems after their host stars evolve into their post-main-sequence phase is poorly constrained by observations. Many young white dwarf systems exhibit infrared excess emission and/or spectral absorption lines associated with

Blueprint for a Universal Theory of Learning to Read: The Combinatorial Model

open access: yesReading Research Quarterly, Volume 60, Issue 2, April/May/June 2025.
The Reading Tree. Abstract In this essay, I outline some of the essential ingredients of a universal theory of reading acquisition, one that seeks to highlight commonalities while embracing the global diversity of languages, writing systems, and cultures.

A Correlation between the Final Separation and Mass Ratio from Common-envelope Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Analytical models for common-envelope evolution (CEE), particularly the energy formalism, are used in binary population synthesis to predict post-CEE configurations.

Pulsation-induced Spectroscopic Variability of IRAS Z02229+6208

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Monitoring of high-resolution spectra in the optical and near-infrared wavelength region was carried out for the early post-AGB stage star IRAS Z02229+6208 with the CARMENES instrument to reveal spectroscopic variability over the pulsation cycle of 154 ...
