  2. 1. Spectral modeling of nebular-phase supernovae

    Author : Anders Jerkstrand; Claes Fransson; Luc Dessart; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; supernovae; nucleosynthesis; radiative transfer; massive stars; 1987A; IIP; supernovor; nukleosyntes; spektralmodellering; strålningstransport; massiva stjärnor; 1987A; IIP; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : Massive stars live fast and die young. They shine furiously for a few million years, during which time they synthesize most of the heavy elements in the universe in their cores. They end by blowing themselves up in a powerful explosion known as a supernova (SN). READ MORE

  4. 2. Stochastic Chemical Evolution : A Study of Scatter in Relative Elemental Abundances in Extremely Metal-poor Stars

    Author : Torgny Karlsson; Bengt Gustafsson; Mike Edmunds; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Astronomy; nucleosynthesis; chemical evolution; Galactic evolution; supernovae; chemical abundances; Population II stars; Astronomi; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik;

    Abstract : Chemical evolution addresses the problem of the formation of the chemical elements and their evolution throughout the history of the universe. This thesis discusses in particular the chemical evolution in the young universe and what we may learn from the observations of the oldest stars. READ MORE

  5. 3. On the Winds of Carbon Stars and the Origin of Carbon : A Theoretical Study

    Author : Lars Mattsson; Susanne Höfner; Nils Bergvall; Kjell Olofsson; Martin Groenewegen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AGB stars; carbon stars; mass loss; stellar winds; circumstellar matter; cosmic dust; stellar evolution; nucleosynthesis; galactic chemical evolution; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik; Astronomy; Astronomi; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Carbon is the basis for life, as we know it, but its origin is still largely unclear. Carbon-rich Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars (carbon stars) play an important rôle in the cosmic matter cycle and may contribute most of the carbon in the Galaxy. READ MORE

  7. 5. Interacting Giants and Compact Stars

    Author : Alexey Bobrick; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars Binaries: General; stars : neutron; stars : subdwarfs; stars : supergiants; hydrodynamics; nuclear reactions; nucleosynthesis; abundances; stars Binaries: General; stars : neutron; stars : subdwarfs; stars : supergiants; hydrodynamics; nuclear reactions; nucleosynthesis; abundances; Fysicumarkivet A:2021:Bobrick;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on four papers dealing with various aspects of interactions in binary stars. Interactions between stars occur at nearly all stages of their evolution and can take many forms. READ MORE
