Accretion and Recovery in Giant Eruptions of Massive Stars
Bhawna Mukhija, Amit Kashi
Giant Eruptions (GEs) are episodic high-rate mass loss events that massive stars experience in the late stage of evolutions before exploding as a core-collapse supernova. If it occ…

Exploring mass transfer mechanisms in symbiotic systems
Irin Babu Vathachira, Yael Hillman, Amit Kashi
We define two regimes of the parameter space of symbiotic systems based on the dominant mass transfer mechanism. A wide range of white dwarf (WD) mass, donor mass, and donor radius…

Giant Eruptions in Massive Stars and their Effect on the Stellar Structure
Bhawna Mukhija, Amit Kashi
Giant eruptions (GE) in Luminous blue variables (LBVs) are years to decades-long episodes of enhanced mass loss from the outer layers of the star during which the star undergoes ma…
