Supernova explosions of massive stars and cosmic rays

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that cosmic rays from exploding massive stars with winds always show two cosmic ray components at the same time: (i) the weaker polar cap component only produced by Diffusive Shock Acceleration, showing a relatively flat spectrum, and cut-off at the knee, and (ii) the stronger 4 π component, which is produced by a combination of Stochastic Shock Drift Acceleration and DiffusiveShock Acceleration.

MHD simulation scenarios of the stellar wind interaction with Hot Jupiter magnetospheres

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present three-dimensional numerical simulations of the interaction between a Hot Jupiter and the stellar wind plasma of its host star in the framework of resistive magnetohydrodynamics.

Exploring the Evolution of Stellar Rotation Using Galactic Kinematics

TL;DR: In this article, velocity dispersion is used as an age proxy to reveal the temperature-dependent rotational evolution of low-mass Kepler dwarfs, and demonstrate that kinematic ages could be a useful tool for calibrating gyrochronology in the future.

Empirical Tidal Dissipation in Exoplanet Hosts From Tidal Spin-Up

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed a sample of all known hot Jupiters with an orbital period of 3.5 days and a "cool" host star and found evidence that the tidal dissipation parameter increases sharply with forcing frequency.

Cosmic ray transport in heliospheric magnetic structures. I. Modeling background solar wind using the CRONOS magnetohydrodynamic code

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) setup was used to model inner-heliospheric solar wind conditions with a 3D transport code employing a stochastic differential equation approach.
