Stellar Radio Astronomy. Probing Stellar Atmospheres from Protostars to Giants

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2002
Radio astronomy has provided evidence for the presence of ionized atmospheres around almost all classes of non-degenerate stars. Magnetically confined coronae dominate in the cool half of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.

Model atmospheres of sub-stellar mass objects

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017
We present an outline of basic assumptions and governing structural equations describing atmospheres of substellar mass objects, in particular the extrasolar giant planets and brown dwarfs.

Intriguing Revelations from Lithium, Beryllium, and Boron

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
This is a report on some highlights of research on the rare light elements, lithium (Li), beryllium (Be), and boron (B), that were presented at my Henry Norris Russell Lecture in 2020 January.

Pulsating Stellar Atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
We review the basic concepts, present state of theoretical models, and the future prospects for theory and observations of pulsating stellar atmospheres. Our emphasis is on radially pulsating cool stars, which dynamic atmospheres provide a general example for the differences with standard static model atmospheres.

Lithium in Turnoff Stars in the Globular Cluster M5: A Quest for Primordial Lithium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The light element lithium is formed by nucleosynthesis during the Big Bang. Its abundance can help to define the parameters of the early Universe. To find this primordial value, it is necessary to determine Li abundances in the oldest stars because it is

The Shapes of Stellar Spectra

open access: yesAtoms, 2023
Stellar atmospheres separate the hot and dense stellar interiors from the emptiness of space. Radiation escapes from the outermost layers of a star, carrying direct physical information.

New Methods in Modeling of Hot Stellar Atmospheres

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2013
In the present study we had three main aims. First to study the possibility of reducing the initial model atmosphere data to short analytical polynomials.

Study of atmospheres in the solar system, from stellar occultation or planetary transit

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Physique, 2022
Stellar occultations and transits occur when a planetary body passes in front of a star (including our Sun). For objects with an atmosphere, refraction plays an essential role to explain the drops of flux and the aureoles observed during these events ...

The Interaction Between Accretion from the Interstellar Medium and Accretion from the Evolved Binary Component in Barium Stars [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
The reanalysis of the previously published abundance pattern of mild barium star HD202109 (ζ Cyg) and the chemical compositions of 129 thin disk barium stars facilitated the search for possible correlations of different stellar parameters with second ...

Stars in the age of micro-arc-second astrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The understanding and modeling of the structure and evolution of stars is based on statistical physics as well as on hydrodynamics. Today, a precise identification and proper description of the physical processes at work in stellar interiors are still ...
