On Stellar Evolution In A Neutrino Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram
Ebraheem Farag, F. X. Timmes, Morgan Taylor +2
We explore the evolution of a select grid of solar metallicity stellar models from their pre-main sequence phase to near their final fates in a neutrino Hertzsprung-Russell diagram…
Sensitivity of the lower-edge of the pair instability black hole mass gap to the treatment of time dependent convection
M. Renzo, R. J. Farmer, S. Justham +3
Gravitational-wave detections are now probing the black hole (BH) mass distribution, including the predicted pair-instability mass gap. These data require robust quantitative predi…
Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA): Convective Boundaries, Element Diffusion, and Massive Star Explosions
Bill Paxton, Josiah Schwab, Evan B. Bauer +10
We update the capabilities of the software instrument Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) and enhance its ease of use and availability. Our new approach to locat…
Neutrinos from beta processes in a presupernova: probing the isotopic evolution of a massive star
Kelly M. Patton, Cecilia Lunardini, Robert J. Farmer +1
We present a new calculation of the neutrino flux received at Earth from a massive star in the hours of evolution prior to its explosion as a supernova (presupernova). Us…
Properties of Carbon-Oxygen White Dwarfs From Monte Carlo Stellar Models
C. E. Fields, R. Farmer, I. Petermann +2
We investigate properties of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs with respect to the composite uncertainties in the reaction rates using the stellar evolution toolkit, Modules for Experimen…
Presupernova neutrinos: realistic emissivities from stellar evolution
Kelly M. Patton, Cecilia Lunardini, Robert J. Farmer
We present a new calculation of neutrino emissivities and energy spectra from a massive star going through the advanced stages of nuclear burning (presupernova) in the months befor…
