On shear-induced turbulence in rotating stars
We review various prescriptions which have been proposed for the turbulent transport of matter and angular momentum in differentially rotating stellar radiation zones. A new prescription is presented for the horizontal transport associated with the anisotropic shear turbulence which is produced by the differential rotation in latitude; this ‘β-viscosity’ is drawn from torque measurements in the...
متن کاملTurbulence in Wind-Blown Bubbles around Massive Stars
Winds from massive stars (> 8 solar masses) result in the formation of wind-blown “bubbles” around these stars. In this paper we study, via two-dimensional numerical hydrodynamic simulations, the onset and growth of turbulence during the formation and evolution of these wind-blown “bubbles”. Our simulations reveal the formation of vortex rolls during the Main-Sequence stage of the evolution, an...
متن کاملThe Evolution of Surface Parameters of Rotating Massive Stars
We summarize the present status of the predictions of massive star models for the evolution of their surface properties. After discussing luminosity, temperature and chemical composition, we focus on the question whether massive stars may arrive at critical rotation during their evolution, either on the main sequence or in later stages. We find both cases to be possible and briefly discuss obse...
متن کاملThe evolution of rotating very massive stars with LMC composition⋆⋆⋆
Context. With growing evidence for the existence of very massive stars at subsolar metallicity, there is an increased need for corresponding stellar evolution models. Aims. We present a dense model grid with a tailored input chemical composition appropriate for the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Methods. We use a one-dimensional hydrodynamic stellar evolution code, which accounts for rotation, t...
متن کاملPresupernova Evolution of Differentially Rotating Massive Stars Including Magnetic Fields
As a massive star evolves through multiple stages of nuclear burning on its way to becoming a supernova, a complex, differentially rotating structure is set up. Angular momentum is transported by a variety of classic instabilities, and also by magnetic torques from fields generated by the differential rotation. We present the first stellar evolution calculations to follow the evolution of rotat...
