Stellar age determination in the mass–luminosity plane

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
ABSTRACT The ages of stars have historically relied on isochrone fitting of standardized grids of models. While these stellar models have provided key constraints on observational samples of massive stars, they inherit many systematic uncertainties, mainly in the internal mixing mechanisms applied throughout the grid, fundamentally ...

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). IX. A 27 Myr Extended Population of Lower Centaurus Crux with a Transiting Two-planet System

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We report the discovery and characterization of a nearby (∼85 pc), older (27 ± 3 Myr), distributed stellar population near Lower Centaurus Crux (LCC), initially identified by searching for stars comoving with a candidate transiting planet from TESS (HD ...

The Abundance of S-Process Elements: Temporal and Spatial Trends from Open Cluster Observations

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Spectroscopic observations of stars belonging to open clusters, with well-determined ages and distances, are a unique tool for constraining stellar evolution, nucleosynthesis, mixing processes, and, ultimately, Galactic chemical evolution.

Stellar Seismology, Stellar Ages and the Cosmological Constant

open access: yes, 2001
Solar seismology has allowed precision measurements of both the static and dynamic structure of our local star, the Sun. In the near future, seismology of solar-like stars of different ages and masses, necessarily restricted by angular resolution to low l-modes, will allow studies of the internal structure of stars at various stages of evolution.

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 ...

Wrinkles in Time. I. Rapid Rotators Found in High-eccentricity Orbits

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Recent space-based missions have ushered in a new era of observational astronomy, where high-cadence photometric light curves for thousands to millions of stars in the solar neighborhood can be used to test and apply stellar age-dating methods, including

Theoretical Re-evaluations of Scaling Relations between SMBHs and Their Host Galaxies–2. Importance of AGN Feedback Suggested by Stellar Age–Velocity Dispersion Relation

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
We present the galactic stellar age—velocity dispersion relation obtained from a semi-analytic model of galaxy formation. We divide galaxies into two populations: galaxies which have over-massive/under-massive black holes (BHs) against the best-fitting ...

Towards age/rotation/magnetic activity relation with seismology

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The knowledge of stellar ages directly impacts the characterization of a planetary system as it puts strong constraints on the moment when the system was born. Unfortunately, the determination of precise stellar ages is a very difficult task.
