Linking Circumstellar Disk Lifetimes to the Rotational Evolution of Low-mass Stars

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The high-energy radiation emitted by young stars can have a strong influence on their rotational evolution at later stages. This is because internal photoevaporation is one of the major drivers of the dispersal of circumstellar disks, which surround all ...

Mixing and Magnetic Fields in Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in the Framework of FRUITY Models

Universe, 2021
In the last few years, the modeling of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars has been much investigated, both focusing on nucleosynthesis and stellar evolution aspects. Recent advances in the input physics required for stellar computations made it possible

MESA Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST). II. Models with α-enhanced Chemical Composition

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We update and expand the MESA Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) database to include variations in the α -capture elements, specifically [ α /Fe] = −0.2, 0, +0.2, +0.4, and +0.6 for the full range of −3 ≤ [Fe/H] ≤ +0.5 already covered by MIST ...

Magnetic Inflation and Stellar Mass. IV. Four Low-mass Kepler Eclipsing Binaries Consistent with Non-magnetic Stellar Evolutionary Models [PDF]

The Astronomical Journal, 2019
Abstract Low-mass eclipsing binaries (EBs) show systematically larger radii than model predictions for their mass, metallicity, and age. Prominent explanations for the inflation involve enhanced magnetic fields generated by rapid rotation of the star that inhibit convection and/or suppress flux from the star via starspots.

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

Evolutionary models of rotating dense stellar systems: challenges in software and hardware [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2014
AbstractWe present evolutionary models of rotating self-gravitating systems (e.g. globular clusters, galaxy cores). These models are characterized by the presence of initial axisymmetry due to rotation. Central black hole seeds are alternatively included in our models, and black hole growth due to consumption of stellar matter is simulated until the ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Correlations between Ca ii H and K Emission and the Gaia M Dwarf Gap

The Astrophysical Journal
The Gaia M dwarf gap, also known as the Jao Gap, is a novel feature discovered in the Gaia Data Release 2 G versus BP-RP color–magnitude diagram. This gap represents a 17% decrease in stellar density in a thin magnitude band around the convective ...
