Physics of compact stellarators

Physics of Plasmas, 1999
Recent progress in the theoretical understanding and design of compact stellarators is described. Hybrid devices, which depart from canonical stellarators by deriving benefits from the bootstrap current which flows at finite beta, comprise a class of low aspect ratio A<4 stellarators.

Formation Channels of Single and Binary Stellar-Mass Black Holes

Handbook of Gravitational Wave Astronomy, 2021
These are exciting times for binary black hole (BBH) research. LIGO and Virgo detections are progressively drawing a spectacular fresco of BBH masses, spins and merger rates.

Stellar physics.

Science, 1981
From the combination of knowledge and actions, someone can improve their skill and ability. It will lead them to live and work much better. This is why, the students, workers, or even employers should have reading habit for books.

A physical model for the stellar IMF

AIP Conference Proceedings, 1997
We propose that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) arises as a consequence of the existence of random supersonic flows in molecular clouds. A Miller-Scalo like IMF is predicted for the typical physical conditions in molecular clouds, and a more “massive” one in star bursts.

Recent Developments in Stellarator Physics

Nuclear Technology - Fusion, 1983
Experimental and theoretical work on the stellarator concept has established its position as the best alternate concept for fusion power. Its plasma properties are comparable to, or better than, those obtained in comparable tokamak devices. Confinement and transport should be adequate for reactor operation, with high-..beta..

The physics of stellar core collapse

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1988
The hydrodynamics that develops during the infall of the core of a massive star at the end of its hydrostatic evolutionary epoch can have a profound effect on its subsequent dynamical history. In this paper the important processes governing the infall hydrodynamics are explored both semi-analytically and numerically with the aim of explaining the ...

Multi-Dimensional Processes In Stellar Physics

2020
When one has to deal with fluid flows, magnetic fields or heat transfer in stars, one faces the partial differential equations that govern these processes. These phenomena are naturally multi-dimensional and their study requires new and sophisticated models.
