Radiative Transfer in 3D Model Stellar Atmospheres

open access: yes, 2003
Recently 3D hydrodynamical simulations of stellar surface convection have become feasible thanks to advances in computer technology and efficient numerical algorithms. Available observational diagnostics indicate that these models are highly realistic in

Fictions, Conditionals, and Stellar Astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This article argues in favour of an inferential role for fictions in scientific modelling. The argument proceeds by means of a detailed case study, namely models of the internal structure of stars in stellar astrophysics.

Influence of surface stressing on stellar coronae and winds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
STFC funding has supported this research.The large-scale field of the Sun is well represented by its lowest energy (or potential) state. Recent observations, by comparison, reveal that many solar-type stars show large-scale surface magnetic fields that ...

Stellar Structure and the Origin of Stellar Energy* [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1930
THE generally accepted theory of the internal conditions in stars, due to Sir A. S. Eddington, depends largely on a special solution of the fundamental equations, and according to this a definite calculable luminosity is associated with a given mass. If this were the only solution of the equations it would conflict, as I have repeatedly shown in recent

From theoretical stellar spectra to realistic models of the Milky Way : a never ending Odyssey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The last chapter is dedicated to the compilation of the results and the discussion about the success of - but also about the problems that have arisen during - and in part also survived - this work. The main goal of this thesis was, firstly, to convert

Stellar ages from stellar rotation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractOur ability to determine stellar ages from measurements of stellar rotation, hinges on how well we can measure the dependence of rotation on age for stars of different masses. Rotation periods for stars in open clusters are essential to determine the relations between stellar age, rotation, and mass.
