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…

The Initial Magnetic Field Distribution in AB Stars

Eoin Farrell, Adam S. Jermyn, Matteo Cantiello +1

Stars are born with magnetic fields, but the distribution of their initial field strengths remains uncertain. We combine observations with theoretical models of magnetic field evol…

Hot Jupiter engulfment by a red giant in 3D hydrodynamics

Mike Y. M. Lau, Matteo Cantiello, Adam S. Jermyn +3

Hot Jupiters are gas giant planets with orbital periods of a few days and are found in 0.1-1% of Sun-like stars. They are expected to be engulfed during their host star's radial ex…

Nonlinear Mixing driven by Internal Gravity Waves

Adam S. Jermyn

Hydrodynamic waves propagate through stellar interiors, transporting energy and angular momentum. They can also advect fluid elements to produce mixing, but this effect has not bee…
