متن کاملMesa2gadget: Bridging the Gap between 1-d and 3-d Stellar Models
Thermal pulsation is a complicated mixing event in AGB stars which involves interaction between several layers of the stellar interior, and which occurs on very short timescales compared to a star’s evolutionary timescale. The temporal constraint makes these events difficult to resolve in a 1-D stellar evolution codes, and instead they are typically studied in isolation through 3-D smoothed-par...
متن کاملEvolutionary Analysis of Gaseous Sub-neptune-mass Planets with Mesa
Sub-Neptune-sized exoplanets represent the most common types of planets in the Milky Way, yet many of their properties are unknown. Here, we present a prescription to adapt the capabilities of the stellar evolution toolkit Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) to model sub-Neptune mass planets with H/He envelopes. With the addition of routines treating the planet core luminosit...
متن کاملStellar Evolution Presenting
Stars “evolve” with time in a predicable manner. Our theory of stellar evolution is one of the foundations of astrophysics, is well tested and verified, and has enabled great advances in many fields of astrophysics. As such, stellar evolution is a cornerstone of any astronomy course, from the 100 level up through graduate levels. One of the leading software to model a star’s evolution in detail...
متن کاملStellar Populations in the Central Galaxies of Fossil Groups
It is inferred from the symmetrical and luminous X-ray emission of fossil groups that they are mature, relaxed galaxy systems. Cosmological simulations and observations focusing on their dark halo and inter-galactic medium properties confirm their early formation. Recent photometric observations suggest that, unlike the majority of non-fossil brightest group galaxies (BGGs), the central early-t...
