Radiation Hydrodynamics of Line-Driven Winds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Dimtri Mihalas' textbooks in the 70's and 80's on "Stellar Atmospheres" and "Foundations of Radiation Hydrodynamics" helped lay the early groundwork for understanding the moving atmospheres and winds of massive, luminous stars.

Living with a Red Dwarf: X-Ray, UV, and Ca ii Activity–Age Relationships of M Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The vast majority of stars in the nearby stellar neighborhood are M dwarfs. Their low masses and luminosities result in slow rates of nuclear evolution and minimal changes to the stars’ observable properties, even along astronomical timescales.

On line contribution functions and examining spectral line formation in 3D model stellar atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Line contribution functions are useful diagnostics for studying spectral line formation in stellar atmospheres. I derive an expression for the contribution function to the abso- lute flux depression that emerges from three-dimensional box-in-a-star model

Implications of Atmospheric Nondetections for Trappist-1 Inner Planets on Atmospheric Retention Prospects for Outer Planets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
JWST secondary eclipse observations of Trappist-1b seemingly disfavor atmospheres >∼1 bar since heat redistribution is expected to yield dayside emission temperature below the ∼500 K observed.

Basics of the NLTE physics

open access: yes, 2014
Basic assumptions of the NLTE approximation in stellar atmospheres are summarized. The assumptions of thermodynamic equilibrium, local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE), and non-LTE (NLTE) are compared.

Hot Exoplanet Atmospheres Resolved with Transit Spectroscopy (HEARTS) [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
Ultra-hot Jupiters offer interesting prospects for expanding our theories on dynamical evolution and the properties of extremely irradiated atmospheres.

An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

Stark broadening parameter tables for neutral calcium spectral lines. I [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 1999
Using a semiclassical approach, we have calculated electron−, proton−, He II−, Mg II-, Si II- and Fe II-impact line widths and shifts for 189 Ca I multiplets as a function of temperature.

Indicators of Mass in Spherical Stellar Atmospheres

open access: yes, 2013
Mass is the most important stellar parameter, but it is not directly observable for a single star. Spherical model stellar atmospheres are explicitly characterized by their luminosity ($L_\star$), mass ($M_\star$) and radius ($R_\star$), and observations

The Solar--Stellar Connection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Stars have proven to be surprisingly prolific radio sources and the added sensitivity of the Square Kilometer Array will lead to advances in many directions.
