Helioseismic inference of the solar radiative opacity
Gaël Buldgen, Jean-Christophe Pain, Philippe Cossé +18
The Sun is the most studied of all stars, and thus constitutes a benchmark for stellar models. However, our vision of the Sun is still incomplete, as illustrated by the current deb…
An Expanded Set of Los Alamos OPLIB Tables in MESA: Type-1 Rosseland-mean Opacities and Solar Models
Ebraheem Farag, Christopher J. Fontes, F. X. Timmes +11
We present a set of 1194 Type-1 Rosseland-mean opacity tables for four different metallicity mixtures. These new Los Alamos OPLIB atomic radiative opacity tables are an order of ma…
Inversions of the Ledoux discriminant: a closer look at the tachocline
Gaël Buldgen, S. J. A. J. Salmon, M. Godart +10
Modelling the base of the solar convective envelope is a tedious problem. Since the first rotation inversions, solar modellers are confronted with the fact that a region of very li…
Seismic inversion of the solar entropy: A case for improving the Standard Solar Model
G. Buldgen, S. J. A. J. Salmon, A. Noels +9
The Sun is the most constrained and well-studied of all stars. As a consequence, the physical ingredients entering solar models are used as a reference to study all other stars obs…
Interpretation of the BRITE oscillation data of the hybrid pulsator Eridani: a call for the modification of stellar opacities
J. Daszynska-Daszkiewicz, A. A. Pamyatnykh, P. Walczak +3
The analysis of the BRITE oscillation spectrum of the main sequence early B-type star Eridani is presented. Only models with the modified mean opacity profile can account for t…
Modeling the Spectra of Dense Hydrogen Plasmas: Beyond Occupation Probability
T. A. Gomez, M. H. Montgomery, T. Nagayama +2
Accurately measuring the masses of white dwarf stars is crucial in many astrophysical contexts (e.g., asteroseismology and cosmochronology). These masses are most commonly determin…
