  1. 1. Solar Type Stars as Calibrators : A Photometric and Spectroscopic Study on the Atmospheric Properties of Late-type Stars

    Författare :Anna Önehag; Ulrike Heiter; Andreas Korn; Bengt Gustafsson; Frank Grundahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars: atmospheres; stars: late-type; techniques: photometric; stars: abundances; techniques: spectroscopic; Astronomy; Astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : Detailed knowledge of solar-type stars is essential in the understanding of the evolutionary past, presence and future of the Sun as well as the formation of its planetary system. Moreover, solar-type stars are of key significance for the study of the evolution of the Galaxy. The ages of solar-type stars map the full galactic evolution. LÄS MER

  3. 2. High-contrast imaging of low-mass companions and debris disks

    Författare :Ruben Asensio Torres; Markus Janson; Subhanjoy Mohanty; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Direct imaging; extrasolar planets; debris disks; planet formation; high angular resolution; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : The search for exoplanets, i.e., planets orbiting other stars than the Sun, is a relatively new research field, but has already established itself as one of the most prolific and intriguing areas of astronomy. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Characterising Emblematic Binaries at the Lowest Stellar and Substellar Masses

    Författare :Per Calissendorff; Markus Janson; Koraljka Mužić; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; astrometry; binaries; brown dwarfs; low-mass stars; multiplicity; substellar; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : Stars are involved in most research fields of astronomy, ranging from studies of faraway galaxies, exploding supernovae, to more nearby exoplanets and even our own Sun. As such, it is paramount that our physical interpretation of stars is accurate. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Stellar Ages for Galactic Archaeology : Methods and Applications

    Författare :Christian Sahlholdt; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Galaxy : formation; Stellar ages; Milky Way Galaxy; Low mass stars; Galaxy : disc; Galaxy : evolution; Fysicumarkivet A:2021:Sahlholdt;

    Sammanfattning : Galactic Archaeology is the study of the formation and evolution of the Milky Way through the properties of stars and stellar populations. The combination of stellar ages, chemical compositions, positions, and velocities can reveal the history of star formation and chemical enrichment in different regions of the Galaxy. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Magnetic fields of cool stars from near-infrared spectropolarimetry

    Författare :Alexis Lavail; Oleg Kochukhov; Nikolai Piskunov; Gaitee Hussain; Jeff Valenti; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars: magnetic field; stars: pre-main-sequence; stars: late-type; techniques: spectroscopic; techniques: polarimetric; Astronomy; Astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : Magnetic fields rule many physical processes in and around stars throughout their lifetime. All cool stars possess a magnetic field, likely generated by dynamo processes. In order to properly understand the evolution of cool stars, we need to understand their magnetism. LÄS MER
