The Evolution of Stellar Populations [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2001
We summarize the discussion section on ``Evolution of Stellar Populations'' we led on May 27, 2000 in Granada, Spain, as part of the Euroconference on The Evolution of Galaxies. I- Observational Clues.

Chemical element transport in stellar evolution models. [PDF]

open access: yesR Soc Open Sci, 2017
Stellar evolution computations provide the foundation of several methods applied to study the evolutionary properties of stars and stellar populations, both Galactic and extragalactic.

Red supergiants and stellar evolution [PDF]

open access: yesEAS Publications Series, 2013
We review the significant role played by red supergiants (RSGs) in stellar populations, and some challenges and questions they raise for theoretical stellar evolution. We present how metallicity and rotation modify the way stars go to the red part of the

Stellar chemical evolution [PDF]

open access: bronzeSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
One of the major achievements of astrophysics has been the demonstration that most of the chemical elements have been synthesized in stars: nucleosynthesis calculations of homogeneous and inhomogeneous big bang cosmologies show that, in comparison with the most metal-poor stars currently known, essentially no elements heavier than B existed at the era ...

Stellar evolution and modelling stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this chapter I give an overall description of the structure and evolution of stars of different masses, and review the main ingredients included in state-of-the-art calculations aiming at reproducing observational features.

Binarity and Stellar Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011
AbstractModels of stellar evolution constitute an extremely powerful, and for the most part apparently very successful, tool for understanding the progression of a star through its lifetime as a fairly compact entity of incandescent gas. That success has led to stellar evolution theory becoming a crutch when an observer is faced with objects whose ...

The Mass-Metallicity and Luminosity-Metallicity Relation from DEEP2 at z ~ 0.8 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
We present the mass-metallicity (MZ) and luminosity-metallicity (LZ) relations at z ~ 0.8 from ~1350 galaxies in the Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe 2 (DEEP2) survey.

Is there a mass discrepancy in the Cepheid binary OGLE-LMC-CEP0227? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Context. The Cepheid mass discrepancy, the difference between masses predicted from stellar evolution and stellar pulsation calculations, is a challenge for the understanding of stellar astrophysics. Recent models of the eclipsing binary Cepheid OGLE-LMC-
