The magnetic fields and stellar winds of the mature late F-stars: β Virginis and θ Draconis [PDF]
, 2022 International audienceMapping the large-scale magnetic field in late F-type stars is important for understanding the nature of the stellar dynamo and the dynamics of thin outer convection zones.

Highlights of Astronomy, 1989 AbstractThis review discusses winds from stars with hot outer atmospheres, stars with coronae similar to the sun. It illustrates how solar observations can be used to test a theoretical model for solar-stellar winds, and thereby provide some insights concerning applications to studying winds from stars other than the sun.

Stellar Winds in A-Type Supergiants [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1994 A-type supergiants are just at the boundary between the early type supergiants, with strong stellar winds driven by radiation pressure and the cool supergiants in which the origin of mass loss is the dissipation of mechanical energy. The mechanisms involved in the mass loss processes in A supergiants as a whole, are still uncertain.

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.

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.

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

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

Stellar winds in a-type supergiants [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989 The contribution of A supergiant stars to the return of mass and energy to the interstellar medium is not very important. Abbott (1982) analised a sample of early stars and concluded that B and A supergiants provided less than 8 % of the mass input to the ISM by stellar winds.

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 ...

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.
