A Systematic Survey of the Effects of Wind Mass Loss Algorithms on the Evolution of Single Massive Stars [PDF]
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.

FUEL EFFICIENT GALAXIES: SUSTAINING STAR FORMATION WITH STELLAR MASS LOSS [PDF]
We examine the importance of secular stellar mass loss for fueling ongoing star formation in disk galaxies during the late stages of their evolution.

Comparison of theoretical radiation-driven winds from stars and discs [PDF]
We compare models of line-driven winds from accretion discs and single spherical stars. We look at the problem of scaling mass-loss rates and velocities of stellar and disc winds with model parameters.

Empirical determination of the integrated red giant and horizontal branch stellar mass-loss in ω Centauri [PDF]
We herein determine the average integrated mass-loss from stars belonging to the dominant metal-poor population ([Fe/H] ∼−1.7) of the Galactic globular cluster ω Centauri (NGC 5139) during their red giant and horizontal branch (HB) evolution.

A new mass-loss rate prescription for red supergiants [PDF]
Evolutionary models have shown the substantial effect that strong mass-loss rates ($\dot{M}$s) can have on the fate of massive stars. Red supergiant (RSG) mass-loss is poorly understood theoretically, and so stellar models rely on purely empirical ...

Indications of stellar coronal mass ejections through coronal dimmings [PDF]
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are huge expulsions of magnetized matter from the Sun and stars, traversing space with speeds of millions of kilometres per hour.

Reaction of Massive Clusters to Gas Expulsion - The cluster density dependence [PDF]
The expulsion of the unconverted gas at the end of the star formation process potentially leads to the expansion of the just formed stellar cluster and membership loss.

Mass Loss and Stellar Rotation [PDF]
The observational evidence for non-spherical winds of rapidly rotating hot and cool stars is presented. Models to explain equatorially enhanced winds of AGB stars and of hot B[e]-supergiants are discussed. We distinguish between models with a disk due to an increased equatorial mass flux and those with a disk due to spherical mass loss with a wind ...

THE IMPACT OF GAS STRIPPING AND STELLAR MASS LOSS ON SATELLITE GALAXY EVOLUTION [PDF]
Current semi-analytic models of galaxy formation overpredict the fraction of passive small late-type satellite galaxies in dense environments by a factor of two to three.
