ExoClock Project III: 450 new exoplanet ephemerides from ground and space observations

A. Kokori, A. Tsiaras, B. Edwards +214

The ExoClock project has been created with the aim of increasing the efficiency of the Ariel mission. It will achieve this by continuously monitoring and updating the ephemerides o…

Electron Capture Supernovae From Close Binary Systems

Arend J. T. Poelarends, Scott Wurtz, James Tarka +2

We present the first detailed study of the Electron Capture Supernova Channel (ECSN Channel) for a primary star in a close binary star system. Progenitors of ECSN occupy the lower…

White dwarf spins from low mass stellar evolution models

M. P. L. Suijs, N. Langer, A. -J. Poelarends +3

The prediction of the spins of the compact remnants is a fundamental goal of the theory of stellar evolution. Here, we confront the predictions for white dwarf spins from evolution…

Thermohaline mixing in low-mass giants: RGB and beyond

M. Cantiello, H. Hoekstra, N. Langer +1

Thermohaline mixing has recently been proposed to occur in low mass red giants, with large consequence for the chemical yields of low mass stars. We investigate the role of thermoh…

The Supernova Channel of Super-AGB Stars

A. J. T. Poelarends, F. Herwig, N. Langer +1

We study the late evolution of solar metallicity stars in the transition region between white dwarf formation and core collapse. This includes the super-asymptotic giant branch (su…

The Effects of Binary Evolution on the Dynamics of Core Collapse and Neutron-Star Kicks

Ph. Podsiadlowski, N. Langer, A. J. T. Poelarends +3

We systematically examine how the presence in a binary affects the final core structure of a massive star and its consequences for the subsequent supernova explosion. Interactions…
