Constraining Stellar Rotation at the Zero-age Main Sequence with TESS [PDF]
The zero-age main sequence (ZAMS) is a critical phase for stellar angular momentum evolution, as stars transition from contraction-dominated spin-up to magnetic wind-dominated spin-down.

The nature and origin of disky elliptical galaxies [PDF]
, 2002 The observational trend that disky elliptical galaxies exhibit younger luminosity- weighted ages than boxy ellipticals is investigated. The presence of a possible young stellar disk embedded in these galaxies is explored by comparing kinematics derived ...
