Models of very-low-mass stars, brown dwarfs and exoplanets
Within the next few years, GAIA and several instruments aiming to image extrasolar planets will be ready. In parallel, low-mass planets are being sought around red dwarfs, which offer more favourable conditions, for both radial velocity detection and transit studies, than solar-type stars. In this paper, the authors of a model atmosphere code that has allowed the detection of water vapour in th...
متن کاملMass loss and very low-metallicity stars
Mass loss plays a dominant role in the evolution of massive stars at solar metallicity. After discussing different mass loss mechanisms and their metallicity dependence, we present the possibility of strong mass loss at very low metallicity. Our models at Z = 10−8 show that stars more massive than about 60 M⊙ may lose a significant fraction of their initial mass in the red supergiant phase. Thi...
متن کاملAccurate masses of very low mass stars
We present very accurate individual masses (1.2% relative accuracy) for the two components of Gl 570BC, an interferometric and double-lined spectroscopic binary system. They were obtained from new high accuracy radial velocity and angular separation measurements, analysed together with previously published measurements. From those data we determine a much improved orbit through a simultaneous l...
متن کاملRotating models for evolved low-mass stars
Low mass stars (< 2-2.5M⊙) exhibit, at all the stages of their evolution, signatures of processes that require challenging modeling beyond the standard stellar theory. In this paper we focus on their peculiarities while they climb the red giant branch (RGB). We first compare the classical predictions for abundance variations due to the first dredge-up with observational data in various environm...
متن کاملAccurate masses of very low mass stars : II The very low mass triple system Gl 866 ⋆
ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS Accurate masses of very low mass stars: II The very low mass triple system Gl 866 Abstract. We present very accurate orbital parameters and mass measurements (2.4% accuracy) for the well known very low mass triple system Gl 866. We obtain first orbital elements for the short-period orbit and greatly improve the long period orbit. All three stars have masses close to 0...
