Continuous mass ablation of planets engulfed in stellar envelopes
Mike Y. M. Lau, Robert Andrassy, Giovanni Leidi +4
Most stars host short-period planets that are expected to be engulfed during post-main-sequence expansion. The dissolution of engulfed planets has been proposed as a possible mecha…
Phlegethon: a fully compressible magnetohydrodynamic code for simulations in stellar astrophysics
G. Leidi, A. Holas, K. Vitovsky +12
We present PHLEGETHON, a fully compressible, Eulerian magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code designed for multidimensional simulations in stellar astrophysics. The code uses a time-explici…
Large-scale ordered magnetic fields generated in mergers of helium white dwarfs
Rüdiger Pakmor, Ingrid Pelisoli, Stephen Justham +9
Stellar mergers are one important path to highly magnetised stars. Mergers of two low-mass white dwarfs may create up to every third hot subdwarf star. The merging process is usual…
