X-ray astronomy of stellar coronae [PDF]
The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2004 X-ray emission from stars in the cool half of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is generally attributed to the presence of a magnetic corona that contains plasma at temperatures exceeding 1 million K. Coronae are ubiquitous among these stars, yet many fundamental mechanisms operating in their magnetic fields still elude an interpretation through a ...

Hot super-Earths stripped by their host stars
Nature Communications, 2016 Theory predicts a deficit of super-Earth sized planets, which orbit close to their host star. Here, Lundkvist et al. use data from the NASA Kepler mission to show that this deficit is also seen in observations, thereby providing new insight into ...

Current Star Formation in the Outer Rings among Early-Type Disk Galaxies
, 2015 By using the ARRAKIS, the atlas of stellar rings in galaxies (Comeron et al. 2014) based on data of the S4G survey, we have compiled a list of early-type, S0-Sb, disk galaxies with outer stellar ring-like features (`pure' rings, R, or pseudorings, R ...

What asteroseismology can do for exoplanets
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 We describe three useful applications of asteroseismology in the context of exoplanet science: (1) the detailed characterisation of exoplanet host stars; (2) the measurement of stellar inclinations; and (3) the determination of orbital eccentricity from ...

The γ Dor stars as revealed by Kepler: A key to reveal deep-layer rotation in A and F stars
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 The γ Dor pulsating stars present high-order gravity modes, which make them important targets in the intermediate-and low-mass main-sequence region of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. Whilst we have only access to rotation in the envelope of the Sun, the

Microlensing of Extended Stellar Sources [PDF]
, 1998 We investigate the feasibility of reconstructing the radial intensity profile of extended stellar sources by inverting their microlensed light curves. Using a simple, linear, limb darkening law as an illustration, we show that the intensity profile can ...

Light Curve Analyses of the Eclipsing Binaries in the Small Magellan Cloud [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008 Large survey observations such as the EROS, the MACHO and the OGLE projects have discovered a large number of eclipsing binaries in the extra galaxies and published their light curves.

Stellar abundances of beryllium and CUBES [PDF]
, 2014 Stellar abundances of beryllium are useful in different areas of astrophysics, including studies of the Galactic chemical evolution, of stellar evolution, and of the formation of globular clusters.
