Stellar Mass Loss-Driven Wind Models of Elliptical Galaxies? [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1994 Recent claims in the literature (Bressan, Chiosi & Fagotto 1994) that the epoch describing the onset of galactic winds in spheroidal star systems has been severely overestimated in the past, due to the neglect of energy deposited in the interstellar ...

Stellar Winds and Mass-Loss Rates from Be Stars [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 1982 Resonance-line profiles of SiIII and SiIV lines in 22 B and Be stars have been analyzed in the derivation of mass-loss rates. Of the 19 known Be or shell stars in the sample group, all but one show evidence of winds. It is argued that for stars of spectral type B1.5 and later, SiIII and SiIV are the dominant stages of ionization, and this conclusion ...

Stellar adiabatic mass loss model and applications [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2010 Roche-lobe overflow and common envelope evolution are very important in binary evolution, which is believed to be the main evolutionary channel to hot subdwarf stars. The details of these processes are difficult to model, but adiabatic expansion provides

Constraining the Stellar Mass Function in the Galactic Center via Mass Loss from Stellar Collisions [PDF]
Advances in Astronomy, 2011 The dense concentration of stars and high-velocity dispersions in the Galactic center imply that stellar collisions frequently occur. Stellar collisions could therefore result in significant mass loss rates.

Stellar mass loss and galactic chemical evolution [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1981 We summarize here some of the results that we have obtained from chemical evolution models. In particular, we discuss those aspects related to stellar mass loss, helium production, a varying heavy element yield and the very light stars.The observed value of the helium to heavy element abundance ratio ΔY/ΔZ is about 3 (e.g. Lequeux et al. 1979).

The Dynamical Evolution of Globular Clusters with Stellar Mass Loss [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1991 The dynamical evolution of globular clusters is studied using the orbit-averaged multicomponent Fokker-Planck equation. The original code developed by Cohn(1980) is modified to include the effect of stellar evolutions.

Stellar evolution models with mass loss and turbulence [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008 AbstractAlthough chemical separation is generally accepted as the main physical process responsible for the anomalous surface abundances of AmFm stars, its exact behavior within the interior of these stars is still uncertain. We will explore two hydrodynamical processes which could compete with atomic diffusion: mass loss and turbulence.

Stellar Streams Reveal the Mass Loss of Globular Clusters
The Astrophysical Journal LettersGlobular cluster (GC) streams, debris of stars tidally stripped from their progenitor GCs, have densities that correlate positively with the GC mass-loss rate.

Pinwheel Outflow Induced by Stellar Mass Loss in a Coplanar Triple System [PDF]
The Astrophysical JournalWe develop a physical framework for interpreting complex circumstellar patterns whorled around asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars by investigating stable, coplanar triple systems using hydrodynamic and particle simulations.
