Probability distributions of initial rotation velocities and core-boundary mixing efficiencies of γ Doradus stars
Joey S. G. Mombarg, Conny Aerts, Geert Molenberghs
The theory the rotational and chemical evolution is incomplete, thereby limiting the accuracy of model-dependent stellar mass and age determinations. The Doradus pulsators are…
Astrophysical properties of 15062 Gaia DR3 gravity-mode pulsators: pulsation amplitudes, rotation, and spectral line broadening
Conny Aerts, Geert Molenberghs, Joris De Ridder
Gravito-inertial asteroseismology saw its birth thanks to high-precision CoRoT and Kepler space photometric light curves. So far, it gave rise to the internal rotation frequency of…
Internal mixing of rotating stars inferred from dipole gravity modes
May G. Pedersen, Conny Aerts, Péter I. Pápics +7
During most of their life, stars fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores. The mixing of chemical elements in the radiative envelope of stars with a convective core is able to repl…
Reduction of the maximum mass-loss rate of OH/IR stars due to unnoticed binary interaction
L. Decin, W. Homan, T. Danilovich +12
In 1981, the idea of a superwind that ends the life of cool giant stars was proposed. Extreme OH/IR-stars develop superwinds with the highest mass-loss rates known so far, up to a…
Asteroseismic masses, ages, and core properties of Doradus stars using gravito-inertial dipole modes and spectroscopy
Joey S. G. Mombarg, Timothy Van Reeth, May G. Pedersen +5
The asteroseismic modelling of period spacing patterns from gravito-inertial modes in stars with a convective core is a high-dimensional problem. We utilise the measured period spa…
Binary Asteroseismic Modelling: isochrone-cloud methodology and application to Kepler gravity-mode pulsators
C. Johnston, A. Tkachenko, C. Aerts +5
The simultaneous presence of variability due to both pulsations and binarity is no rare phenomenon. Unfortunately, the complexities of dealing with even one of these sources of var…
Forward asteroseismic modeling of stars with a convective core from gravity-mode oscillations: parameter estimation and stellar model selection
C. Aerts, G. Molenberghs, M. Michielsen +13
We propose a methodological framework to perform forward asteroseismic modeling of stars with a convective core, based on gravity-mode oscillations. These probe the near-core regio…
Asteroseismic versus Gaia distances: a first comparison
J. De Ridder, G. Molenberghs, L. Eyer +1
Context. The Kepler space mission led to a large amount of high-precision time series of solar-like oscillators. Using a Bayesian analysis that combines asteroseismic techniques an…
The surface nitrogen abundance of a massive star in relation to its oscillations, rotation, and magnetic field
Conny Aerts, Geert Molenberghs, Michael G. Kenward +1
We have composed a sample of 68 massive stars in our galaxy whose projected rotational velocity, effective temperature and gravity are available from high-precision spectroscopic m…
Detection of gravity modes in the massive binary V380 Cyg from Kepler spacebased photometry and high-resolution spectroscopy
A. Tkachenko, C. Aerts, K. Pavlovski +17
We report the discovery of low-amplitude gravity-mode oscillations in the massive binary star V380 Cyg, from 180 d of Kepler custom-aperture space photometry and 5 months of high-r…
The variable mass loss of the AGB star WX Psc as traced by the CO J=1-0 through 7-6 lines and the dust emission
L. Decin, S. Hony, A. de Koter +3
Low and intermediate mass stars lose a significant fraction of their mass through a dust-driven wind during the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) phase. Recent studies show that winds…
Estimating stellar oscillation-related parameters and their uncertainties with the moment method
Joris De Ridder, Geert Molenberghs, Conny Aerts
The moment method is a well known mode identification technique in asteroseismology (where `mode' is to be understood in an astronomical rather than in a statistical sense), which…
