astro-ph.SR2026

Variability classification of TESS targets in LOPS2, the first long-term pointing field of PLATO. Version 1 of the public variability catalogue

Mykyta Kliapets, Pablo Huijse, Jeroen Audenaert +28

The PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO) mission is expected to launch in January 2027. A total of 8\% of its data rate will be dedicated to complementary science t…

Twists in the flow: revisiting convective mixing in rotating stellar models. I. Effect on the stellar structure

Poojan Agrawal, Aaron Dotter, Conny Aerts +2

Convection and rotation are both key processes in stellar evolution modelling. While standard mixing-length theory (MLT) provides a widely used modelling of convection, it neglects…

Modelling stellar evolution in mass-transferring binaries and gravitational-wave progenitors with METISSE

Poojan Agrawal, Jarrod Hurley, Simon Stevenson +3

Massive binaries are vital sources of various transient processes, including gravitational-wave mergers. However, large uncertainties in the evolution of massive stars, both physic…

Bringing Stellar Evolution & Feedback Together: Summary of proposals from the Lorentz Center Workshop, 2022

Sam Geen, Poojan Agrawal, Paul A. Crowther +34

Stars strongly impact their environment, and shape structures on all scales throughout the universe, in a process known as ``feedback''. Due to the complexity of both stellar evolu…

A systematic study of super-Eddington layers in the envelopes of massive stars

Poojan Agrawal, Simon Stevenson, Dorottya Szécsi +1

The proximity to the Eddington luminosity has been attributed as the cause of several observed effects in massive stars. Computationally, if the luminosity carried through radiatio…

Explaining the differences in massive star models from various simulations

Poojan Agrawal, Dorottya Szécsi, Simon Stevenson +2

The evolution of massive stars is the basis of several astrophysical investigations, from predicting gravitational-wave event rates to studying star-formation and stellar populatio…

Population synthesis of accreting white dwarfs: Rates and evolutionary pathways of H and He novae

Alex J. Kemp, Amanda I. Karakas, Andrew R. Casey +5

Novae are some of the most commonly detected optical transients and have the potential to provide valuable information about binary evolution. Binary population synthesis codes hav…

The fates of massive stars: exploring uncertainties in stellar evolution with METISSE

Poojan Agrawal, Jarrod Hurley, Simon Stevenson +2

In the era of advanced electromagnetic and gravitational wave detectors, it has become increasingly important to effectively combine and study the impact of stellar evolution on bi…

Bonn Optimized Stellar Tracks (BoOST). Simulated Populations of Massive and Very Massive Stars for Astrophysical Applications

Dorottya Szécsi, Poojan Agrawal, Richard Wünsch +1

Massive and very massive stars can play important roles in stellar populations by ejecting strong stellar winds and exploding in energetic phenomena. It is therefore imperative tha…
