Stellar Masses and Radii

1989
We have seen that a careful analysis of a star’s spectrum reveals the chemical and physical characteristics of its atmosphere, but the spectrum tells us very little about its deep interior. It gives us only the total amount of radiation emitted per second by the star; it tells us nothing about the generation and transport of this radiation through the ...

Stellar mass calibration

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1978
SummaryAlthough mass results and their evolutionary connotations now largely stem from observational realms other than astrometry, it is the combination with proper motions, kinematics, and distance calibration which significantly enhances their usefulness.

Stellar mass loss and atmospheric instability

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1988
AbstractA review is given of rate of mass-loss values in the upper part of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. Near the luminosity limit of stellar existance = −10−4 M⊙ yr−1. Episodical mass loss in bright variable super- and hypergiants does not significantly increase this value. For Wolf-Rayet stars the rate of mass loss is larger by a factor 140 than

The Largest Stellar Masses

1978
In view of their young age and their exceedingly fast evolution, the extremely massive stars are targets of particular attention when measurements and models are linked together. Masses computed from spectroscopic orbits depend on the cube of the radial-velocity amplitude and are — more often than not in these cases — subject to the distortion of the ...

Stellar Masses in Galaxies

2015
There has been considerable progress in recent years in determining stellar masses of galaxies. In this talk, I discuss various methods and their uncertainties. In particular, I will discuss the stellar masses that one can obtain from near-infrared imaging and spectroscopy, through stellar population synthesis.
