    Abstract : A major fraction of stars will pass through a short period of dramatic events in their final evolutionary stage. Low- to intermediate-mass stars, studied here, are stripped of their outer parts in a slow massive wind. This mass loss reshapes both the star and the surrounding medium. READ MORE

  4. 2. Where stars are born : Kinematics and photometry of starburst and postburst galaxies

    Author : Javier Blasco-Herrera; Göran Östlin; Roberto Rampazzo; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : The understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies will not be complete until we understand the physical processes that trigger and regulate starformation in them. This work is about star formation on several size scales. READ MORE
