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…
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…
