Yields of rotating stars at solar metallicity
R. Hirschi, G. Meynet, A. Maeder
We present a new set of stellar yields obtained from rotating stellar models at solar metallicity covering the massive star range (12-60 solar masses). The stellar models were calc…
Rotating massive stars: Pre-SN models and stellar yields at solar metallicity
R. Hirschi, G. Meynet, A. Maeder
We present a new set of stellar yields obtained from rotating stellar models at solar metallicity covering the massive star range (9-120 solar masses). The stellar models were calc…
Rotation and Mixing in Massive Stars: Principles and Uncertainties
Georges Meynet, Andre Maeder
The main instabilities induced by rotation in stellar interiors are described. We derive from first principles the general equation describing the transport of the angular momentum…
Effects of Rotation on Presupernovae Models
Georges Meynet, Raphael Hirschi, André Maeder
We show that rotation strongly affects the nature of the supernova progenitor (blue/red supergiant or Wolf--Rayet star), and thus the supernova types. In particular our models well…
New estimates of the contribution of Wolf--Rayet stellar winds to the Galactic 26Al
A. Palacios, G. Meynet, C. Vuissoz +4
We present new yields of 26Al from Wolf--Rayet stellar winds based on rotating stellar models which account well for numerous observed properties of massive stars. We study the imp…
Evolution at very low and zero Z
Georges Meynet, André Maeder, Sylvia Ekström
Rotation deeply affects the evolution of very metal poor massive stars. Indeed, even moderately rotating stars reach the break--up limit during the Main--Sequence (MS) phase, they…
