Simulations of Interacting Binary Systems—Pathways to Radio-bright Gamma-Ray Burst Progenitors

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Although the association of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with massive stellar death is on firm footing, the nature of the progenitor system and the key ingredients required for a massive star to produce a GRB remain open questions.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

The fate of Earth during the Sun’s giant phases

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The long-term evolution of planetary systems around solar-type stars is governed by the interplay between stellar expansion, tidal interactions, and mass loss during the red giant branch (RGB) and asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phases.

The Advanced Spectral Library: The Evolution of Chromospheric Wind Characteristics from Noncoronal to Hybrid Giant Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph treasury program Advanced Spectral Library enables investigations of the characteristics and dynamics of the wind and chromosphere of cool stars using high-quality spectral data.

Stellar winds and mass-loss rates from Be stars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1981
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 mass loss from the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Dwarf galaxies often experience gravitational interactions from more massive companions. These interactions can deform galaxies, turn star formation on or off, or give rise to mass loss phenomena. In this thesis work we propose to study, through N-body

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

A study of U Aquarii and the nucleosynthesis of neutrons and S-process elements in evolved stars of low mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The origin of the extreme hydrogen deficiency observed in the R Coronae Borealis (RCrB) stars remains poorly understood. A likely mechanism for producing this deficiency is one whereby the original hydrogen envelope of the star is engulfed and ...

Fine-tuned Supernova or Failed Explosion? Decoding the Origins of the G3425 Binary

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
A binary system (G3425) consisting of a massive unseen component and a red giant star on a nearly circular orbit was recently discovered. The formation of such a system is puzzling because orbital stability generally breaks down due to the large mass ...

Some comments on empirical FITS to stellar mass loss rates [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Two empirical fits to stellar mass loss rates have been examined and found lacking in physical ...
