The Effects of Accretion Feedback on Stellar Evolution in AGN Disks

Alexander J. Dittmann, Matteo Cantiello

Stars embedded in the accretion disks of active galactic nuclei (AGN) can accrete rapidly from their surroundings, dramatically altering their structure and evolution. However, fee…

MESA Isochrones and Stellar Tracks. II. Models with alpha-enhanced chemical composition

A Dotter, E Bauer, MJ Park +4

We update and expand the MESA Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) database to include variations in the alpha-capture elements, specifically [alpha/Fe]=-0.2, 0, +0.2, +0.4, and +0…
