Parker solar probe: Four years of discoveries at solar cycle minimum

NE Raouafi, L Matteini, J Squire, ST Badman… - Space Science …, 2023 - Springer
Abstract Launched on 12 Aug. 2018, NASA's Parker Solar Probe had completed 13 of its
scheduled 24 orbits around the Sun by Nov. 2022. The mission's primary science goal is to …

A review of the theory of galactic winds driven by stellar feedback

D Zhang - Galaxies, 2018 - mdpi.com
Galactic winds from star-forming galaxies are crucial to the process of galaxy formation and
evolution, regulating star formation, shaping the stellar mass function and the mass …

Debris disks: seeing dust, thinking of planetesimals and planets

AV Krivov - Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
Debris disks are optically thin, almost gas-free dusty disks observed around a significant
fraction of main-sequence stars older than about 10 Myr. Since the circumstellar dust is short …

Evolution of thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch stars–II. Dust production at varying metallicity

A Nanni, A Bressan, P Marigo… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2013 - academic.oup.com
We present the dust ejecta of the new stellar models for the thermally pulsing asymptotic
giant branch (TP-AGB) phase computed with the colibri code. We use a formalism of dust …

Asteroid belts in debris disk twins: Vega and Fomalhaut

KYL Su, GH Rieke, R Malhotra… - The Astrophysical …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
Vega and Fomalhaut are similar in terms of mass, ages, and global debris disk properties;
therefore, they are often referred to as" debris disk twins." We present Spitzer 10–35 μm …

A near-infrared interferometric survey of debris-disc stars-III. First statistics based on 42 stars observed with CHARA/FLUOR

O Absil, D Defrere, VC Du Foresto, E Di Folco… - Astronomy & …, 2013 - aanda.org
Context. Dust is expected to be ubiquitous in extrasolar planetary systems owing to the
dynamical activity of minor bodies. Inner dust populations are, however, still poorly known …

PSP/WISPR observations of dust density depletion near the Sun-I. Remote observations to 8 R⊙ from an observer between 0.13 and 0.35 AU

G Stenborg, RA Howard, P Hess… - Astronomy & …, 2021 - aanda.org
Context. In 1929, Russell predicted that dust particles cannot survive in a region close to any
star, hence giving justification for a dust free zone to exist inside a certain distance from the …

Forming planets around stars with non-solar elemental composition

DM Jorge, IEE Kamp, L Waters, P Woitke… - Astronomy & …, 2022 - aanda.org
Context. Stars in the solar neighbourhood have refractory element ratios slightly different
from that of the Sun. It is unclear how much the condensation of solids and thus the …

Toward a population synthesis of disks and planets-I. Evolution of dust with entrainment in winds and radiation pressure

R Burn, A Emsenhuber, J Weder, O Völkel… - Astronomy & …, 2022 - aanda.org
Context. Millimeter astronomy provides valuable information on the birthplaces of planetary
systems. In order to compare theoretical models with observations, the dust component has …

Sublimation temperature of circumstellar dust particles and its importance for dust ring formation

H Kobayashi, H Kimura, S Watanabe… - Earth, planets and …, 2011 - Springer
Dust particles in orbit around a star drift toward the central star by the Poynting-Robertson
effect and pile up by sublimation. We analytically derive the pile-up magnitude, adopting a …
