Description
In the EU funded Marie Curie Excellence Team CIFIST (Cosmological Impact of the FIrst STars) work is under way to construct 3D radiation-hydrodynamical model atmospheres for late-type dwarfs and giants, in particular of low metallicity. I will present an overview of the present state of the efforts, discuss some applications of the models, and point to necessary future developments.

  • Sounding the treasure trove - Asteroseismology of red-giant stars and binaries systems
    Understanding stellar structure and evolution significantly impacts our understanding of the tight-knit evolution of galaxies and exoplanet systems. However, hidden behind the luminous layers of the stellar atmosphere, the deep interior of a star is eluding from direct measurements. The seismic study of waves propagating the deep interior provides

  • How binary stripping affects the late evolution, death, and afterlife of massive stars
    Gravitational-wave observations have revealed the population of stellar remnants from a new angle. Yet their stellar progenitors remain uncertain, in particular in the case of black holes. At least a fraction of these progenitors is believed to form in isolated binary systems. In this talk, I will discuss how binary mass transfer affects the late

  • Accretion Disc Winds in Low-Mass X-Ray Binary Stars
    Disc winds and jets are ubiquitous among accreting systems on all scales, from active galactic nuclei (AGN) down to young stellar objects. They represent a key mechanism through which these systems interact with their environment (“feedback") and may be responsible for triggering the mysterious state changes observed in X-ray binary stars (XRBs)
