Evolution of rotating massive stars with new hydrodynamic wind models
Alex Camilo Gormaz-Matamala, Jorge Cuadra, Georges Meynet +1
Mass loss due to line-driven winds is central to our understanding of the evolution of massive stars. We extend the evolution models introduced in Paper I, where the mass loss reci…
The magneto-rotational instability in massive stars
A. Griffiths, G. Meynet, P. Eggenberger +2
The interaction between weak magnetic fields and rotation can lead to instabilities that transport angular momentum (AM) and chemical elements affecting the evolution of massive st…
The evolutionary roads leading to low effective spins, high black hole masses, and O1/O2 rates of LIGO/Virgo binary black holes
K. Belczynski, J. Klencki, C. E. Fields +31
All ten LIGO/Virgo binary black hole (BH-BH) coalescences reported from the O1/O2 runs have near zero effective spins. There are only three potential explanations of this fact. If…
Massive star evolution in close binaries:conditions for homogeneous chemical evolution
H. F. Song, G. Meynet, A. Maeder +2
We investigate the impact of tidal interactions, before any mass transfer, on various properties of the stellar models. We study the conditions for obtaining homogeneous evolution…
Massive star archeology in globular clusters
William Chantereau, Corinne Charbonnel, Georges Meynet
Globular clusters are among the oldest structures in the Universe and they host today low-mass stars and no gas. However, there has been a time when they formed as gaseous objects…
Star formation with disc accretion and rotation I. Stars between 2 and 22 Msol at solar metallicity
L. Haemmerlé, P. Eggenberger, G. Meynet +2
The way angular momentum is built up in stars during their formation process may have an impact on their further evolution. In the frame of the cold disc accretion scenario, we stu…
