▪ Abstract In this article we first review the main physical effects to be considered in the
building of evolutionary models of rotating stars on the Upper Main-Sequence (MS). The …

We review the application of the one-dimensional Mixing Length Theory (MLT) model of
convection in stellar interiors and low-mass stellar evolution. We summarize the history of …

Detections of gravitational waves are now starting to probe the mass distribution of stellar
mass black holes (BHs). Robust predictions from stellar models are needed to interpret …

We use asteroseismic data from the Kepler satellite to determine fundamental stellar
properties of the 66 main-sequence targets observed for at least one full year by the mission …

We present calibrations of the effective temperatures of giant stars versus [Fe/H] and
colours,,,,,,,,,, and. These calibrations are based on a large sample of field and globular …

A wealth of new experimental and theoretical results has been obtained in solar physics
since the first edition of this textbook appeared in 1989. Thus all nine chapters have been …

We study the formation and dynamical evolution of clusters with multiple stellar generations.
Observational studies have found that some globular clusters host a population of second …

▪ Abstract Since the discovery of the first bona-fide brown dwarfs and extra-solar planets in
1995, the field of low-mass stars and substellar objects has progressed considerably, both …

In the past few years, we have undertaken an extensive investigation of star clusters and
their stellar populations in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) based …

Aims. We present the Stagger-grid, a comprehensive grid of time-dependent, three-
dimensional (3D), hydrodynamic model atmospheres for late-type stars with realistic …
