Evolution of Planetary Systems with Time Dependent Stellar Mass Loss [PDF]
, 2013 Observations indicate that intermediate mass stars, binary stars, and stellar remnants often host planets; a complete explanation of these systems requires an understanding of how planetary orbits evolve as their central stars lose mass.

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.

EVOLUTION OF PLANETARY ORBITS WITH STELLAR MASS LOSS AND TIDAL DISSIPATION [PDF]
, 2013 Intermediate mass stars and stellar remnants often host planets, and these dynamical systems evolve because of mass loss and tides. This paper considers the combined action of stellar mass loss and tidal dissipation on planetary orbits in order to ...

Shock-powered light curves of luminous red novae as signatures of pre-dynamical mass loss in stellar mergers [PDF]
, 2017 Luminous red novae (LRN) are a class of optical transients believed to originate from the mergers of binary stars, or "common envelope" events. Their light curves often show secondary maxima, which cannot be explained in the previous models of thermal ...

Theory and Diagnostics of Hot Star Mass Loss [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2021 Massive stars have strong stellar winds that direct their evolution through the upper Hertzsprung–Russell diagram and determine the black hole mass function.

Evolution of Mass Functions of Coeval Stars through Wind Mass Loss and Binary Interactions [PDF]
, 2015 Accurate determinations of stellar mass functions and ages of stellar populations are crucial to much of astrophysics. We analyse the evolution of stellar mass functions of coeval main sequence stars including all relevant aspects of single- and binary ...

AGN Jet Mass Loading and Truncation by Stellar Winds [PDF]
, 2006 Active Galactic Nuclei can produce extremely powerful jets. While tightly collimated, the scale of these jets and the stellar density at galactic centers implies that there will be many jet/star interactions, which can mass-load the jet through stellar ...

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

A Systematic Survey of the Effects of Wind Mass Loss Algorithms on the Evolution of Single Massive Stars [PDF]
, 2017 Mass loss is a key uncertainty in the evolution of massive stars. Stellar evolution calculations must employ parametric algorithms for mass loss, and usually only include stellar winds.

PARSEC V2.0: Stellar tracks and isochrones of low and intermediate mass stars with rotation [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2022 We present a new comprehensive collection of stellar evolutionary tracks and isochrones for rotating low- and intermediate-mass stars assembled with the updated version of PARSEC V2.0. This version includes our recent calibration of the extra mixing from
