Measuring the magnetic fields in the chromospheres of low-mass stars [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Magnetic 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,

Radiative Transfer in Stellar Atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesEAS Publications Series, 2010
This review presents basic equations for the solution of the NLTE radiative transfer problem for trace elements and methods for its solution are summarized. The importance of frequency coupling in radiative transfer in stellar atmospheres is emphasized.

Radiative Transfer in 3D Model Stellar Atmospheres

open access: yes, 2003
Recently 3D hydrodynamical simulations of stellar surface convection have become feasible thanks to advances in computer technology and efficient numerical algorithms. Available observational diagnostics indicate that these models are highly realistic in

Quantifying the Key Factors Affecting the Escape of Planetary Atmospheres

open access: yesThe 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.

Stellar coronal mass ejections [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian 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 ...

Atmospheric Reconnaissance of TRAPPIST-1 b with JWST/NIRISS: Evidence for Strong Stellar Contamination in the Transmission Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
TRAPPIST-1 is a nearby system of seven Earth-sized, temperate, rocky exoplanets transiting a Jupiter-sized M8.5V star, ideally suited for in-depth atmospheric studies.

Nonthermal Motions and Atmospheric Heating of Cool Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The magnetic processes associated with the nonthermal broadening of optically thin emission lines appear to carry enough energy to heat the corona and accelerate the solar wind.

Non-Thermal Nitric Oxide Formation in the Earth’s Polar Atmosphere

open access: yesAtmosphere, 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]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal
The 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 ...
