Improving 1D Stellar Models with 3D Atmospheres [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Stellar evolution codes play a major role in present-day astrophysics, yet they share common issues. In this work we seek to remedy some of those by the use of results from realistic and highly detailed 3D hydrodynamical simulations of stellar ...

Measuring the magnetic fields in the chromospheres of low-mass stars [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsMagnetic fields in the upper atmospheres of solar-like stars are believed to provide an enormous amount of energy to power the hot coronae and drive large-scale eruptions that could impact the habitability of planetary systems around these stars. However,

Stellar coronal mass ejections [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2022 Stellar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a growing research field, especially during the past decade. The large number of so far detected exoplanets raises the open question for the CME activity of stars, as CMEs may strongly affect ...

Quantifying the Key Factors Affecting the Escape of Planetary Atmospheres
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The habitability of Earth-like planets is an increasingly important subject in astrophysics and in planetary sciences. Atmospheric escape plays a vital role in the evolution of the habitability of Earth-like planets.

Non-Thermal Nitric Oxide Formation in the Earth’s Polar Atmosphere
Atmosphere, 2023 Auroral events are the prominent manifestation of solar/stellar forcing on planetary atmospheres because they are closely related to the stellar energy deposition by and evolution of planetary atmospheres.

Investigation of ρ Cas (HR 9045, HD 224014) stellar atmosphere [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical JournalThe atmosphere of hypergiant ρ Cas is investigated by the method of atmospheric model. Effective temperature and the surface of gravity are determined by comparing the observed and theoretical values of photometrical indices [c1];Q, and ...
