Light Element Depletion in Contracting Brown Dwarfs and Pre--Main-Sequence Stars
Greg Ushomirsky, Christopher D. Matzner, Edward F. Brown +3
We present an analytic calculation of the thermonuclear depletion of the light elements lithium, beryllium, and boron in fully convective, low-mass stars. Under the presumption tha…

Implications of a Sub-Threshold Resonance for Stellar Beryllium Depletion
Edward F. Brown
Abundance measurements of the light elements lithium, beryllium, and boron are playing an increasingly important role in the study of stellar physics. Because these elements are ea…

The Ocean and Crust of a Rapidly Accreting Neutron Star: Implications for Magnetic Field Evolution and Thermonuclear Flashes
Edward F. Brown, Lars Bildsten
We investigate the atmosphere, ocean, and crust of neutron stars accreting at rates sufficiently high (typically in excess of the local Eddington limit) to stabilize the burning of…
