Resolving Vega and the inclination controversy with CHARA/MIRC
J. D. Monnier, Xiao Che, Ming Zhao +15
Optical and infrared interferometers definitively established that the photometric standard Vega (alpha Lyrae) is a rapidly rotating star viewed nearly pole-on. Recent independent…
Grids of stellar models with rotation II. WR populations and supernovae/GRB progenitors at Z = 0.014
Cyril Georgy, Sylvia Ekström, Georges Meynet +5
We used a recent grid of stellar models computed with and without rotation to make predictions concerning the WR populations and the frequency of different types of core-collapse S…
The Effects of Stellar Rotation. I. Impact on the Ionizing Spectra and Integrated Properties of Stellar Populations
Emily M. Levesque, Claus Leitherer, Sylvia Ekstrom +2
We present a sample of synthetic massive stellar populations created using the Starburst99 evolutionary synthesis code and new sets of stellar evolutionary tracks, including one se…
On the Eddington limit and WR Stars
André Maeder, Cyril Georgy, Georges Meynet +1
We examine some properties of stars evolving close to the classical Eddington limit for electron-scattering opacity, when these stars maintain a chemically homogeneous structure as…
Stellar mass and age determinations - I. Grids of stellar models from Z=0.006 to 0.04 and M=0.5 to 3.5 Msun
N. Mowlavi, P. Eggenberger, G. Meynet +5
We present dense grids of stellar models suitable for comparison with observable quantities measured with great precision, such as those derived from binary systems or planet-hosti…
