Revisiting the evolutionary status of massive stars in the central parsec of the Milky Way

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Massive stars and their winds strongly affect their environment. For example, they determine the accretion rate on to the Galactic centre (GC) supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*).

Atmospheric Heating and Wind Acceleration: Results for Cool Evolved Stars based on Proposed Processes

open access: yes, 2014
A chromosphere is a universal attribute of stars of spectral type later than ~F5. Evolved (K and M) giants and supergiants (including the zeta Aurigae binaries) show extended and highly turbulent chromospheres, which develop into slow massive winds.

Discovery of a Collimated Jet from the Low-luminosity Protostar IRAS 16253−2429 in a Quiescent Accretion Phase with the JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Investigating Protostellar Accretion (IPA) is a JWST Cycle 1 GO program that uses NIRSpec integral field units and MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrograph to obtain 2.9–28 μ m spectral cubes of young, deeply embedded protostars with luminosities of 0.2–10 ...

Constraining the Diffusion Coefficient and Cosmic-Ray Acceleration Efficiency Using Gamma-Ray Emission from the Star-forming Region RCW 38

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stellar winds from massive stars may be significant sources of cosmic rays (CRs). To investigate this connection, we report a detailed study of gamma-ray emission near the young Milky Way star cluster (≈0.5 Myr old) in the star-forming region RCW 38 and ...

Aperture and Resolution Effects on Ultraviolet Star-forming Properties: Insights from Local Galaxies and Implications for High-redshift Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present an analysis of the effects of spectral resolution and aperture scale on derived galaxy properties using far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of local star-forming galaxies from the International Ultraviolet Explorer ( R ∼ 250, field of view (FOV ...

Low energy gamma ray emission from the Cygnus OB2 association [PDF]

open access: yes
According to our newly developed model of gamma-ray emission from chaotic early-type stellar winds, we predict the combined gamma-ray flux from the circumstellar winds of many very luminous early-type stars in the Cyg OB2 association can be detectable by

The Stellar-Wind Regions.

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1961
Abstract : WITH CLASS G main sequence and M-giant stars are given for various interst llar environments. The supersonic wind from a class G star undergoes a shock transition to subsonic flow at a radial distance of 100 - 1,000 a.u. and may extend many times farther as a subsonic flow. Thic storms. Open-ended Terms: Stellar Wind.

First Statistical Detection of Mg ii-traced Cool Gas Outflows with JWST toward Cosmic Dawn

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Galactic-scale outflows are a crucial component of galaxy evolution, yet their properties in the early Universe remain poorly constrained. We present the first statistical investigation of Mg ii -traced cool gas outflows in galaxies spanning a wide ...

Rotational Evolution of Classical T Tauri Stars: Models and Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We developed a grid of stellar rotation models for low-mass and solar-type classical T Tauri stars (CTTS; 0.3 M _⊙ < M _* < 1.2 M _⊙ ). These models incorporate the star–disk interaction and magnetospheric ejections to investigate the evolution of the ...
