stellar structure

He is best known for his two major scientific contributions in the field of stellar structure and evolution.

Consequently, the system plays an important role in testing stellar structure models for very low mass stars.

Following exhaustion of hydrogen in the core, the overall stellar structure drastically changes.

Theoretical calculations of stellar structure and the evolution of stars yield these quantities directly.

His contributions furthered the knowledge of stellar structures, plasma stability, nucleogenesis and cosmology.

S. A. Kaplan has succeeded in presenting an informal yet exciting introduction to stellar structure and evolution.

The bulge and the disk are surrounded by a flat and thick cocoon-like stellar structure.

His interest in stellar structures and interiors led him to study of rarefied gases and ionized media.

The differential equations of stellar structure, such as the equation of hydrostatic equilibrium, are integrated numerically.

For simplicity, the stellar structure equations are written without explicit time dependence, with the exception of the luminosity gradient equation:

Here were stellar structures obeying no natural laws; even now, we do not know their purpose-but we know their awesome implications.

In his scientific work, Professor Tayler made important contributions to stellar structure and evolution, plasma stability, nucleogenesis and cosmology.

This model, technically the spherically symmetric quasi-static model of a star, has stellar structure described by several differential equations derived from basic physical principles.

During the 1930s, Cowling also worked on stellar structure involving radiation and convection, at the same time as Ludwig Biermann but independently of him.

An Introduction to the Study of Stellar Structure, New York : Dover.

Actually, the sun of Terra (Earth) and of Makk were so alike in stellar structure as to be distinguishable only to astro-physical scrutiny.

Sometimes, this takes decades - for example, Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar shared the 1983 Physics Prize for his 1930s work on stellar structure and evolution.

Instead, astrophysicists come to understand how stars evolve by observing numerous stars at various points in their lifetime, and by simulating stellar structure using computer models.

Scientific research at the Institute covers the solar system, star formation, stellar structure and evolution, galaxy formation and evolution and cosmology.

Mestel's research interests are in the area of astrophysics, including: stellar structure, stellar evolution, star formation, cosmic magnetism and pulsar electrodynamics.

The following derivation loosely follows that of Kippenhahn, Weigert, and Weiss in Stellar Structure and Evolution.

UDFj-39546284 is the designation given to a stellar structure reported January 27, 2011, as light from the oldest object detected through infrared observation within the Hubble space telescope.

Fields of study include: cosmology, the early universe, galaxy clusters, galaxy, star and planet formation, the interstellar medium, high energy astrophysics and stellar structure and evolution.

Stellar structure models describe the internal structure of a star in detail and make detailed predictions about the luminosity, the color and the future evolution of the star.

Eddington's work in astrophysics in the late 1920s and the 1930s continued his work in stellar structure, and precipitated further clashes with Jeans and E.A. Milne.
