The partial ionization zone of heavy elements in F-stars: a study on how it correlates with rotation

Ana Brito, +2 more
- 11 Sep 2019 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the relationship between the internal structures of 10 benchmark main-sequence F-stars and their rotational properties, and investigated the characteristics of the partial ionisation zones in the outer convective envelopes of these stars, which in turn depend on the internal temperature profiles.

Rotation of planet-harbouring stars

Pierre F. L. Maxted
- 15 Aug 2017 - 
TL;DR: The rotation rate of a star has important implications for the detectability, characterisation and stability of any planets that may be orbiting it as mentioned in this paper, and a brief overview of stellar rotation before describing the methods used to measure the rotation periods of planet host stars.

Stellar rotation effects on the stellar winds

Bhimsen K. Shivamoggi
- 08 Jan 2020 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the azimuthal wind flow in the stellar-rotation braking mechanism is discussed, and it is shown that stellar rotation leads to considerably enhanced stellar wind acceleration even for moderate rotators.

The progenitor of binary millisecond radio pulsar PSR J1713+0747 (Research Note)

Wen-Cong Chen, +1 more
- 27 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a binary system comprising millisecond radio pulsar with a spin period of 4.57 ms and a low-mass white dwarf (WD) companion orbiting the pulsar, PSR J1713+0747, was modeled as an LMXB.

On a stochastic model for the spin-down of solar type stars

Nicolas Leprovost, +1 more
- 07 Jul 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new model that can account for the presence of both types of rotators by incorporating fluctuations in the solar wind, rendering the spin-down problem probabilistic in nature, some stars experiencing more braking on average than others.
