Constraining the thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch phase with resolved stellar populations in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Giada Pastorelli, Paola Marigo, Léo Girardi +18

Reliable models of the thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) phase are of critical importance across astrophysics, including our interpretation of the spectral energy…

Carbon star formation as seen through the non-monotonic initial-final mass relation

Paola Marigo, Jeffrey D. Cummings, Jason Lee Curtis +13

The initial-final mass relation (IFMR) links the birth mass of a star to the mass of the compact remnant left at its death. While the relevance of the IFMR across astrophysics is u…

Period-luminosity diagram of long period variables in the Magellanic Clouds. New aspects revealed from Gaia Data Release 2

T. Lebzelter, M. Trabucchi, N. Mowlavi +4

Context: The period-luminosity diagram (PLD) has proven to be a powerful tool for studying populations of pulsating red giants. Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) provides a large data set…

Long-period variables in the Gaia era

Nami Mowlavi, Michele Trabucchi, Thomas Lebzelter

The second Gaia data release (DR2, spring 2018) included a unique all-sky catalogue of large-amplitude long-period variables (LPVs) containing Miras and semi-regular variables. The…

Constraining the thermally-pulsing asymptotic giant branch phase with resolved stellar populations in the Small Magellanic Cloud

Giada Pastorelli, Paola Marigo, Léo Girardi +17

The thermally-pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TP-AGB) experienced by low- and intermediate-mass stars is one of the most uncertain phases of stellar evolution and the models need…

The onset of the AGB wind tied to a transition between sequences in the period-luminosity diagram

Iain McDonald, Michele Trabucchi

We link the onset of pulsation-enhanced, dust-driven winds from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the Magellanic Clouds to the star's transition between period--luminosity seq…
