Dust Coagulation in Oxygen-rich Circumstellar Outflows
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We show that the inefficient growth of SiO molecules on (SiO) _x dust grains prolongs the period of maximum dust nucleation in circumstellar outflows resulting in a several orders-of-magnitude increase in the dust density near the star.

AGB Winds with Gas-Dust Drift in Stellar Evolution Codes
Universe, 2021 A significant fraction of new metals produced in stars enter the interstellar medium in the form of dust grains. Including dust and wind formation in stellar evolution models of late-stage low- and intermediate-mass stars provides a way to quantify their

A Disk Wind Driving the Rotating Molecular Outflow in CB 26
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present the ^12 CO ( J = 2–1) sensitive molecular line and 1.3 mm continuum observations from the Submillimeter Array (SMA) of the bipolar outflow associated with the young star located in the Bok globule known as CB 26.

The Contribution of Stellar Winds to Cosmic Ray Production [PDF]
, 2018 Massive stars blow powerful stellar winds throughout their evolutionary stages from the main sequence to Wolf-Rayet phases. The amount of mechanical energy deposited in the interstellar medium by the wind from a massive star can be comparable to the ...

Constraints on Magnetic Braking from the G8 Dwarf Stars 61 UMa and τ Cet
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 During the first half of their main-sequence lifetimes, stars rapidly lose angular momentum to their magnetized winds, a process known as magnetic braking.

Colliding Stellar Winds Structure and X-ray Emission [PDF]
, 2018 We investigate the structure and X-ray emission from the colliding stellar winds in massive star binaries. We find that the opening angle of the contact discontinuity (CD) is overestimated by several formulae in the literature at very small values of the

X-ray Shaping of Planetary Nebulae
Galaxies, 2018 The stellar winds of the central stars of planetary nebulae play an essential role in the shaping of planetary nebulae. In the interacting stellar winds model, the fast stellar wind injects energy and momentum, which are transferred to the nebular ...

Interactions between exoplanets and the winds of young stars
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2014 The topology of the magnetic field of young stars is important not only for the investigation of magnetospheric accretion, but also responsible in shaping the large-scale structure of stellar winds, which are crucial for regulating the rotation evolution

AGN Jet Mass Loading and Truncation by Stellar Winds [PDF]
, 2006 Active Galactic Nuclei can produce extremely powerful jets. While tightly collimated, the scale of these jets and the stellar density at galactic centers implies that there will be many jet/star interactions, which can mass-load the jet through stellar ...

Stellar winds and coronae of low-mass Population II/III stars [PDF]
, 2017 We investigated stellar winds from zero/low-metallicity low-mass stars by magnetohydrodynamical simulations for stellar winds driven by \Alfven waves from stars with mass $M_{\star}=(0.6-0.8)M_{\odot}$ and metallicity $Z=(0-1)Z_{\odot}$, where $M_{\odot}$
