Classical Cases of Non-solar Mixing Length in Low Mass Stars
Rebecca Woody, Charlie Conroy, Phillip A. Cargile +1
The treatment of convection is one of the largest remaining uncertainties in models of low mass stars. The Mixing Length Theory (MLT) for super-adiabatic convection has come under…
MESA Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) III. The White Dwarf Cooling Sequence
Evan B. Bauer, Aaron Dotter, Charlie Conroy +3
We present a substantial update to the MESA Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) library, extending the MIST model grids and isochrones down the white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence w…
Deriving Stellar Properties, Distances, and Reddenings using Photometry and Astrometry with BRUTUS
Joshua S. Speagle, Catherine Zucker, Angus Beane +18
We present brutus, an open source Python package for quickly deriving stellar properties, distances, and reddenings to stars based on grids of stellar models constrained by photome…
A Model for Eruptive Mass Loss in Massive Stars
Shelley J. Cheng, Jared A. Goldberg, Matteo Cantiello +3
Eruptive mass loss in massive stars is known to occur, but the mechanism(s) are not yet well-understood. One proposed physical explanation appeals to opacity-driven super-Eddington…
