A two-dimensional mixing length theory of convective transport
P. Lesaffre, S. M. Chitre, A. T. Potter +1
The helioseismic observations of the internal rotation profile of the Sun raise questions about the two-dimensional (2D) nature of the transport of angular momentum in stars. Here…
Rotation and Magnetism in Massive Stars
Adrian T. Potter
Rotation has a number of important effects on the evolution of stars. It decreases the surface gravity, causes enhanced mass loss and leads to surface abundance anomalies of variou…
Stellar evolution of massive stars with a radiative alpha-omega dynamo
Adrian T. Potter, Shashikumar M. Chitre, Christopher A. Tout
Models of rotationally-driven dynamos in stellar radiative zones have suggested that magnetohydrodynamic transport of angular momentum and chemical composition can dominate over th…
Towards a unified model of stellar rotation II: Model-dependent characteristics of stellar populations
Adrian T. Potter, Christopher A. Tout, Ines Brott
Rotation has a number of important effects on the evolution of stars. Apart from structural changes because of the centrifugal force, turbulent mixing and meridional circulation ca…
Towards a unified model of stellar rotation
Adrian T. Potter, Christopher A. Tout, John J. Eldridge
The effects of rapid rotation on stellar evolution can be profound. We are now beginning to gather enough data to allow a realistic comparison between different physical models. Tw…
Spindown of massive rotating stars
Herbert Ho Bun Lau, Adrian T. Potter, Christopher A. Tout
Models of rapidly rotating massive stars at low metallicities show significantly different evolution and higher metal yields compared to non-rotating stars. We estimate the spin-do…
