چکیده
In this era of Gaia and ALMA, dynamical stellar mass measurements provide benchmarks that are independent observations characteristics their uncertainties. These can then be used to validate improve evolutionary models, which lead both imprecise inaccurate predictions for pre-main-sequence, low-mass stars. We present the masses derived from disks around three M-stars (FP Tau, J0432+1827, J1100-7619) using ALMA $^{12}$CO (J=2--1) $^{13}$CO emission. first J0432+1827 J1100-7619 most precise measurement FP Tau. Fiducial model tracks, do not include any treatment magnetic activity, agree with but underpredict by $\sim$60\% Tau $\sim$80\% J1100-7619.

Mass-loss predictions and stellar masses of early-type stars
We show that the stellar masses implied by our predictions of the wind properties of massive stars are in agreement with masses derived from evolution theory and from direct measurements using spectroscopic binaries, contrary to previous attempts to derive masses from wind theory.
متن کاملDynamical Masses of Young Stars in Multiple Systems
We present recent measurements of the orbital motion in the young binaries DF Tau and ZZ Tau, and the hierarchical triple Elias 12, that were obtained with the Fine Guidance Sensors on the HST and at the Keck Observatory using adaptive optics. Combining these observations with previous measurements from the literature, we compute preliminary orbital parameters for DF Tau and ZZ Tau. We find tha...
متن کاملEclipsing Binary Stars as Tests of Stellar Evolutionary Models and Stellar Ages
Eclipsing binary stars provide highly accurate measurements of the fundamental physical properties of stars. They therefore serve as stringent tests of the predictions of evolutionary models upon which most stellar age determinations are based. Models generally perform very well in predicting coeval ages for eclipsing binaries with main-sequence components more massive than ≈ 1.2 M⊙; relative a...
متن کاملStellar Masses
Dependence of other stellar parameters on mass The Russell–Vogt theorem states that, if we know a star’s mass and its CHEMICAL COMPOSITION, we can use the laws of physics to determine all of its other properties: its luminosity, its radius, its temperature and density profiles, and how these properties change with time. (We know that this is a slight simplification; for instance, the amount of ...
متن کاملDynamical Modeling of the Stellar Nucleus of M 31
We present stellar dynamical models of the lopsided, double–peaked nucleus of M31, derived from Hubble Space Telescope (HST) photometry. A Schwarzschild–type method, in conjunction with Richardson–Lucy deconvolution, was employed to construct steadily rotating, hot, stellar disks. The stars orbit a massive dark object, on prograde and retrograde quasi–periodic loop orbits. Our results support T...
