Stellar Rotation and Mixing [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
Many observations indicate that some mixing occurs in stellar radiation zones: in massive stars, chemical elements resulting from nuclear burning in the core are detected at the surface, and in solar-type stars lithium is depleted with age. Since all mixing processes transport also momentum, the depletion of lithium should be linked with the loss of ...

Stellar ages from stellar rotation [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractOur ability to determine stellar ages from measurements of stellar rotation, hinges on how well we can measure the dependence of rotation on age for stars of different masses. Rotation periods for stars in open clusters are essential to determine the relations between stellar age, rotation, and mass.

Distribution of stellar rotational velocities in star clusters of the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

, 2023
openNegli ultimi anni è divenuto evidente che gli ammassi stellari nelle Nubi di Magellano contengano stelle con una significativa variazione nella velocità di rotazione. Infatti, l'eccellente fotometria del Telescopio Spaziale Hubble (HST) ha rivelato

Intrinsic Ambipolarity and Rotation in Stellarators [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2008
It is shown that collisional plasma transport is intrinsically ambipolar only in quasiaxisymmetric or quasihelically symmetric magnetic configurations. Only in such fields can the plasma rotate freely, and then only in the direction of quasisymmetry. In a non-quasi-symmetric magnetic field, the average radial electric field is determined by parallel ...

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 ...

Disk accretion onto a magnetized star

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
The problem of interaction of the rotating magnetic field, frozen to a star, with a thin well conducting accretion disk is solved exactly. It is shown that a disk pushes the magnetic field lines towards a star, compressing the stellar dipole magnetic ...

BCD Spectrophotometry and Rotation of Active B-Type Stars: Theory and Observations

Galaxies, 2023
This review has two parts. The first one is devoted to the Barbier–Chalonge–Divan (BCD) spectrophotometric system, also known as the Paris spectral classification system.

Towards age/rotation/magnetic activity relation with seismology

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The knowledge of stellar ages directly impacts the characterization of a planetary system as it puts strong constraints on the moment when the system was born. Unfortunately, the determination of precise stellar ages is a very difficult task.
