Bridging the Gap between Intermediate and Massive Stars I: Validation of MESA against the State-of-the-Art Monash Stellar Evolution Program for a 2 AGB Star

Giulia C. Cinquegrana, Meridith Joyce, Amanda I. Karakas

One--dimensional stellar structure and evolution programs are built using different physical prescriptions and algorithms, which means there can be variations between models' predi…

Spinning up the Surface: Evidence for Planetary Engulfment or Unexpected Angular Momentum Transport?

Jamie Tayar, Facundo D. Moyano, Melinda Soares-Furtado +15

In this paper, we report the potential detection of a nonmonotonic radial rotation profile in a low-mass lower-luminosity giant star. For most low- and intermediate-mass stars, the…

JWST Imaging of Earendel, the Extremely Magnified Star at Redshift

Brian Welch, Dan Coe, Erik Zackrisson +60

The gravitationally lensed star WHL0137-LS, nicknamed Earendel, was identified with a photometric redshift based on images taken with the Hubble Space Tele…

A prescription for the asteroseismic surface correction

Yaguang Li, Timothy R. Bedding, Dennis Stello +11

In asteroseismology, the surface effect refers to a disparity between the observed and the modelled frequencies in stars with solar-like oscillations. It originates from improper m…

Blanco DECam Bulge Survey (BDBS) IV: Metallicity Distributions and Bulge Structure from 2.6 Million Red Clump Stars

Christian I. Johnson, R. Michael Rich, Iulia T. Simion +12

We present photometric metallicity measurements for a sample of 2.6 million bulge red clump stars extracted from the Blanco DECam Bulge Survey (BDBS). Similar to previous studies,…
