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.

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.

Stellar coronal mass ejections [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2022 Stellar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a growing research field, especially during the past decade. The large number of so far detected exoplanets raises the open question for the CME activity of stars, as CMEs may strongly affect ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Eta Carinae ( η Car) exhibits a unique set of P Cygni profiles with both broad and narrow components. Over many decades, the spectrum has changed—there has been an increase in observed continuum fluxes and a decrease in Fe ii and H i emission-line ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Stellar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) have recently received much attention for their impacts on exoplanets and stellar evolution. Detecting prominence eruptions, the initial phase of CMEs, as the blueshifted excess component of Balmer lines is a ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The magnetic activity of a star—which modulates the stellar wind outflow—shapes the immediate environments of orbiting (exo)planets and induces atmospheric loss, thereby impacting their habitability.

Continuous stellar mass-loss in N-body models of galaxies [PDF]
, 2001 We present an N-body computer code - aimed at studies of galactic dynamics - with a CPU-efficient algorithm for a continuous (i.e. time-dependent) stellar mass-loss. First, we summarize available data on stellar mass-loss and derive the long-term (20 Gyr)

The Division between Weak and Strong Explosions from Failed Supernovae
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Some massive stars likely fail to produce core-collapse supernovae, but these failed supernovae (FSNe) can generate an electromagnetic outburst prior to the disappearance of the star, as the mass lost to neutrinos during the stellar core collapse results

Extreme Tidal Stripping May Explain the Overmassive Black Hole in Leo I: A Proof of Concept
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 A recent study found dynamical evidence of a supermassive black hole of ∼3 × 10 ^6 M _⊙ at the center of Leo I, the most distant dwarf spheroidal galaxy of the Milky Way. This black hole, comparable in mass to the Milky Way’s Sgr A*, places the system >2

Galaxies, 2023 Magnetism is a ubiquitous property of astrophysical plasmas, yet stellar magnetism still remains far from being completely understood. In this review, we describe recent observational and modelling efforts and progress to expand our knowledge of the ...
