The impact of envelope binding energies on the merger rate density of binary compact objects

Cecilia Sgalletta, Guglielmo Costa, Giuliano Iorio +8

The common envelope (CE) phase plays a key role in the formation of binary compact object systems. Its final outcome strongly depends on the envelope binding energy, but this quant…

A homogeneous view of asymptotic giant branch carbon stars as seen by Gaia

Alessio Liberatori, Despina Hatzidimitriou, Konstantinos Antoniadis +12

Carbon stars on the asymptotic giant branch are major contributors to galactic dust enrichment, with gas mass-loss rates up to 1e-4 Msun/yr. We present a homogeneous spectral energ…

Enhanced Mass Loss of Very Massive Stars: Impact on the Evolution, Binary Processes, and Remnant Mass Spectrum

Kendall G. Shepherd, Guglielmo Costa, Cristiano Ugolini +7

Very massive stars (VMS) play a fundamental role in astrophysics due to their winds and supernovae (SN), and their role as massive black hole (BH) progenitors. However, their origi…

Strikingly high fraction of fast rotators in Magellanic Cloud star clusters

Greta Ettorre, Alessandro Mazzi, Leo Girardi +14

There has been growing evidence that the rich star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds contain significant fractions of rapidly rotating stars. In this work, we aim to constrain thes…

The Local Ultraviolet to Infrared Treasury I. Survey Overview of the Broadband Imaging

Karoline M. Gilbert, Yumi Choi, Martha L. Boyer +21

The Local Ultraviolet to Infrared Treasury (LUVIT) is a Hubble Space Telescope program that combines newly acquired data in the near ultraviolet (NUV), optical, and near infrared (…

AESOPUS 2.1: Low-Temperature Opacities Extended to High Pressure

Paola Marigo, Francesco Addari, Diego Bossini +5

We address the critical need for accurate Rosseland mean gas opacities in high-pressure environments, spanning temperatures from 100 K to 32000 K. Current opacity tables from Wichi…

The cosmic rate of Pair-Instability Supernovae

Francesco Gabrielli, Andrea Lapi, Lumen Boco +8

Pair-instability supernovae (PISNe) have crucial implications for many astrophysical topics, including the search for very massive stars, the black hole mass spectrum, and galaxy c…

The Impact of the Third Dredge-up and Mass Loss in Shaping the Initial-Final Mass Relation of White Dwarfs

Francesco Addari, Paola Marigo, Alessandro Bressan +3

The initial-final mass relation (IFMR) plays a crucial role in understanding stellar structure and evolution by linking a star's initial mass to the mass of the resulting white dwa…

The detection and characterization of highly magnified stars with JWST: Prospects of finding Population III

Erik Zackrisson, Adam Hultquist, Aron Kordt +10

Gravitational lensing may render individual high-mass stars detectable out to cosmological distances, and several extremely magnified stars have in recent years been detected out t…
