Circumbinary discs for stellar population models

Robert G. Izzard, Adam S. Jermyn

We develop a rapid algorithm for the evolution of stable, circular, circumbinary discs suitable for parameter estimation and population synthesis modelling. Our model includes disc…

Modelling time-dependent convective penetration in 1D stellar evolution

Cole Johnston, Mathias Michielsen, Evan H. Anders +7

1D stellar evolution calculations produce uncertain predictions for quantities like the age, core mass, core compactness, and nucleo-synthetic yields; a key source of uncertainty i…

The photometric variability of massive stars due to gravity waves excited by core convection

Evan H. Anders, Daniel Lecoanet, Matteo Cantiello +8

Massive stars die in catastrophic explosions, which seed the interstellar medium with heavy elements and produce neutron stars and black holes. Predictions of the explosion's chara…

Conditioning Predictive Models: Risks and Strategies

Evan Hubinger, Adam Jermyn, Johannes Treutlein +2

Our intention is to provide a definitive reference on what it would take to safely make use of generative/predictive models in the absence of a solution to the Eliciting Latent Kno…

Engineering Monosemanticity in Toy Models

Adam S. Jermyn, Nicholas Schiefer, Evan Hubinger

In some neural networks, individual neurons correspond to natural ``features'' in the input. Such \emph{monosemantic} neurons are of great help in interpretability studies, as they…

KELT-9 and its ultra-hot Jupiter: stellar parameters, composition, and planetary pollution

Mihkel Kama, Colin P. Folsom, Adam S. Jermyn +1

KELT-9b is an ultra-hot Jupiter observed to be undergoing extreme mass loss. Its A0-type host star has a radiative envelope, which makes its surface layers prone to retaining recen…
