Basic Stellar Physics [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
Polytropes, Virial theorem, evolutionary time scales, degrees of freedom, radiative transport, molecular weight, degeneracy, Jeans mass, and Eddington luminosity are basic ingredients to describe the physics of stars.

Toward a New Paradigm in the Analysis of Asteroseismic Lightcurves

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020
This paper aims at being a provocative guide to the future of asteroseismology from the perspective of the analysis of time series, where the fundamentals of harmonic analysis are subjected to stress tests.

Stellar evolution and the Standard Solar Model [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
This contribution is meant as a very brief introduction to the principal concepts of stellar physics. First the main physical processes active in stellar structures will be shortly described, then the most important features during the stellar life-cycle

Stellar test of the physics of unification [PDF]

Physical Review D, 2012
We discuss the feasibility of using solar-type main-sequence stars as probes of fundamental physics and unification. We use a simple polytropic stellar structure model and study its sensitivity to variations of the gravitational, strong and electroweak coupling constants in the context of unification scenarios.

Spectroscopic Follow-up of Gaia Exoplanet Candidates: Impostor Binary Stars Invade the Gaia DR3 Astrometric Exoplanet Candidates

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
In this paper, we report on the follow-up of six potential exoplanets detected with Gaia astrometry and provide an overview of what is currently known about the nature of the entire Gaia astrometric exoplanet candidate sample, 72 systems in total.

Influence of surface stressing on stellar coronae and winds [PDF]

, 2013
STFC funding has supported this research.The large-scale field of the Sun is well represented by its lowest energy (or potential) state. Recent observations, by comparison, reveal that many solar-type stars show large-scale surface magnetic fields that ...

The stellar atmosphere physical system I. Phenomenological definition and representation of a stellar atmosphere [PDF]

Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2018
This paper is the first in a series of two that deals with the physical and numerical grounds of stellar atmosphere modelling. After a phenomenological definition of a star and stellar atmosphere, the physics that shapes the stellar atmosphere ...
