Stellar Masers, Circumstellar Envelopes, and Supernova Remnants
This paper reviews recent advances in the study or circumstellar masers and masers found toward supernova remnants. The review is organized by science focus area, including the astrophysics of extended stellar atmospheres, stellar mass-loss processes and outflows, late-type evolved stellar evolution, stellar maser excitation and chemistry, and the use of stellar masers as independent distance e...
متن کاملPhotofluid Instabilities of Hot Stellar Envelopes
Beginning from a relatively simple set of dynamical equations for a fluid permeated by a radiative field strong enough to produce significant forces, we find the structure of plane-parallel equilibria and study their stability to small acoustic disturbances. In doing this, we neglect viscous effects and complications of nongreyness. We find that acoustic instabilities occur over a wide range of...
متن کاملLaser Action I N Stellar Envelopes
It is shown that in high-temperature stars in which high speed mass loss is occurring, the rapidly recombining plasma in the stellar envelope can act as an amplifying medium. Model calculations for laser action in He 11 1-4686, using the collisional-radiative model, are presented. Menzel's hypothesis of laser action in distended stellar atmospheres is shown to be fully substantiated. The releva...
متن کاملRadiative diffusion in stellar atmospheres : diffusion velocities
Aims. The present paper addresses some of the problems in the buildup of element stratification in stellar magnetic atmospheres due to microscopic diffusion, in particular the redistribution of momentum among the various ionisation stages of a given element and the calculation of diffusion velocities in the presence of inclined magnetic fields. Methods. We have considerably modified and extende...
متن کاملX-ray chemistry in the envelopes around young stellar objects
We present chemical models of the envelope of a young stellar object (YSO) exposed to a central X-ray source. The models are applied to the massive star-forming region AFGL 2591 for different X-ray fluxes. Model results for this region show that the X-ray ionization rate with and without the effects of Compton scattering differs by only a few percent and the influence of Compton scattering on t...
