White dwarfs are a class of stars with unique physical properties. They present many
challenging problems whose solution requires advanced theories of dense matter, state-of …

Hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the Universe. They are also, in
principle, the most simple. Nonetheless, they display remarkable properties under extreme …

We update the capabilities of the open-knowledge software instrument Modules for
Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA). The new auto _ diff module implements …

We present a new generation of substellar atmosphere and evolution models, appropriate
for application to studies of L-, T-, and Y-type brown dwarfs and self-luminous extrasolar …

The population of small, close-in exoplanets is bifurcated into super-Earths and sub-
Neptunes. We calculate physically motivated mass–radius relations for sub-Neptunes, with …

This is the first of a series of papers presenting the Modules for Experiments in Stellar
Astrophysics (MESA) Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) project, a new comprehensive …

As the number of merging binary black holes observed with ground-based gravitational-
wave detectors grows, increasingly accurate theoretical models are required to compare …

We present a new set of solar metallicity atmosphere and evolutionary models for very cool
brown dwarfs and self-luminous giant exoplanets, which we term ATMO 2020. Atmosphere …

Our understanding of the properties and demographics of exoplanets critically relies on our
ability to determine the fundamental properties of their host stars. The advent of Gaia and …

We update the capabilities of the open-knowledge software instrument Modules for
Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA). RSP is a new functionality in MESAstar that …
