Stellar magnetic activity – Star-Planet Interactions
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 Stellar magnetic activity is an important factor in the formation and evolution of exoplanets. Magnetic phenomena like stellar flares, coronal mass ejections, and high-energy emission affect the exoplanetary atmosphere and its mass loss over time.

Li Enrichment in Red Clump Giants: Clues for Past Binary Interaction or Merger Events
The Astrophysical Journal LettersTo understand the underlying mechanisms of high Li abundances among core He-burning or red clump (RC) giants, we analyzed a sample of 5227 RC giants of mass M ≤ 2 M _⊙ using spectra and asteroseismic data.

Conference summary: Mass loss from stellar clusters
, 2007 This conference dealt with the mass loss from stars and from stellar clusters. In this summary of the cluster section of the conference, I highlight some of the results on the formation and the fundamental properties of star clusters (Sect. 2), the early stages of their evolution (Sect.

JWST/MIRI Detection of [Ne v], [Ne vi], and [O iv] Wind Emission in the O9 V Star 10 Lacertae
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe report the detection of broad, flat-topped emission in the fine-structure lines of [Ne v ], [Ne vi ], and [O iv ] in mid-infrared spectra of the O9 V star 10 Lacertae obtained with James Webb Space Telescope/Mid-Infrared Instrument.

A Model for Eruptive Mass Loss in Massive Stars
The Astrophysical JournalEruptive mass loss in massive stars is known to occur, but the mechanism(s) are not yet well understood. One proposed physical explanation appeals to opacity-driven super-Eddington luminosities in stellar envelopes.
