Confronting uncertainties in stellar physics II. exploring differences in main-sequence stellar evolution tracks [PDF]

, 2016
We assess the systematic uncertainties in stellar evolutionary calculations for low- to intermediate-mass, main-sequence stars. We compare published stellar tracks from several different evolution codes with our own tracks computed using the stellar ...

Formation Channels of Single and Binary Stellar-Mass Black Holes [PDF]

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.

Radiative stellar feedback in galaxy formation: Methods and physics [PDF]

Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
Radiative feedback (RFB) from stars plays a key role in galaxies, but remains poorly understood. We explore this using high-resolution, multifrequency radiation-hydrodynamics (RHD) simulations from the Feedback In Realistic Environments (FIRE) project.

Confronting uncertainties in stellar physics: calibrating convective overshooting with eclipsing binaries [PDF]

, 2015
As part of a larger program aimed at better quantifying the uncertainties in stellar computations, we attempt to calibrate the extent of convective overshooting in low to intermediate mass stars by means of eclipsing binary systems.

Hot super-Earths stripped by their host stars

Nature Communications, 2016
Theory predicts a deficit of super-Earth sized planets, which orbit close to their host star. Here, Lundkvist et al. use data from the NASA Kepler mission to show that this deficit is also seen in observations, thereby providing new insight into ...
