On `On the Red Supergiant Problem': a rebuttal, and a consensus on the upper mass cutoff for II-P progenitors
Ben Davies, Emma Beasor
The `Red Supergiant Problem' describes the claim that the brightest Red Supergiant (RSG) progenitors to type II-P supernovae are significantly fainter than RSGs in the field. This…
On aging star clusters using red supergiants independent of the fraction of interacting binary stars
J. J. Eldridge, Emma R. Beasor, N. Britavskiy
We use the Binary Population and Spectral Synthesis (BPASS) models to test the recent suggestion that red supergiants can provide an accurate age estimate of a co-eval stellar popu…
A new mass-loss rate prescription for red supergiants
Emma R. Beasor, Ben Davies, Nathan Smith +3
Evolutionary models have shown the substantial effect that strong mass-loss rates () can have on the fate of massive stars. Red supergiant (RSG) mass-loss is poorly unders…
The `Red Supergiant Problem': the upper luminosity boundary of type-II supernova progenitors
Ben Davies, Emma R. Beasor
By comparing the properties of Red Supergiant (RSG) supernova progenitors to those of field RSGs, it has been claimed that there is an absence of progenitors with luminosities …
