Detailed asteroseismic modeling of RR Lyrae stars with non-radial modes

H. Netzel, L. Molnar, M. Joyce

Photometric observations from the last decade have revealed additional low-amplitude periodicities in many classical pulsators that are likely due to pulsations in non-radial modes…

Bridging the Gap between Intermediate and Massive Stars II: for the most metal-rich stars and implications for Fe CCSNe rates

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

The minimum initial mass required for a star to explode as an Fe core collapse supernova, typically denoted , is an important quantity in stellar evolution because it…

To Grow Old and Peculiar: A Survey of Anomalous Variable Stars in M80 and Age Determination using K2 and Gaia

László Molnár, Emese Plachy, Attila Bódi +11

The globular cluster Messier 80 was monitored by the Kepler space telescope for 80 days during the K2 mission. Continuous, high-precision photometry of such an old, compact cluster…

Asteroseismic sounding of bulge globular clusters with the Roman Space Telescope

László Molnár, Csilla Kalup, Meridith Joyce

Globular clusters are relics of the early Universe and they hold clues to many aspects of stellar and galactic evolution. We propose to point the Roman Space Telescope at one or mo…

A multi-wavelength analysis of BL Her stars: Models versus Observations

S. Das, L. Molnár, S. M. Kanbur +6

We present new theoretical period--luminosity (PL) and period--radius (PR) relations at multiple wavelengths (Johnson--Cousins--Glass and {\sl Gaia} passbands) for a fine grid of B…

Comment on the feasibility of carbon burning in Betelgeuse: a response to "The evolutionary stage of Betelgeuse inferred from its pulsation periods," arXiv:2306.00287

László Molnár, Meridith Joyce, Shing-Chi Leung

The recent pre-print by Saio et al. 2023 argues that the supergiant Betelgeuse is already undergoing carbon burning, based on the assumption that all of its light variations are ca…
