TL;DR: In this article, a combination of seven-year data from WMAP and improved astrophysical data rigorously tests the standard cosmological model and places new constraints on its basic parameters and extensions.

parsec: stellar tracks and isochrones with the PAdova and TRieste Stellar Evolution Code
Alessandro Bressan,Paola Marigo,Léo Girardi,Bernardo Salasnich,Claudia Dal Cero,Stefano Rubele,Ambra Nanni +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an updated version of the AESOPUS code used to compute stellar evolutionary tracks in Padova, which is the result of a thorough revision of put physics, together with the inclusion of the pre-main sequence phase.

PARSEC: stellar tracks and isochrones with the PAdova and TRieste Stellar Evolution Code
Alessandro Bressan,Paola Marigo,Léo Girardi,Bernardo Salasnich,C. Dal Cero,S. Rubele,Ambra Nanni +6 more
TL;DR: In this work, extended sets of stellar evolutionary models for various initial chemical compositions are presented, while other set s with different metallicities and/or different distributions of heavy elements are being computed.

Cosmic Star-Formation History
Piero Madau,Mark Dickinson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the range of complementary techniques and theoretical tools that allow astronomers to map the cosmic history of star formation, heavy element production, and reionization of the Universe from the cosmic "dark ages" to the present epoch.

Modules for experiments in stellar astrophysics (mesa): binaries, pulsations, and explosions
Bill Paxton,Pablo Marchant,Josiah Schwab,Evan B. Bauer,Lars Bildsten,Lars Bildsten,Matteo Cantiello,Luc Dessart,Robert Farmer,Haili Hu,Norbert Langer,Richard H. D. Townsend,Dean M. Townsley,Francis Timmes +13 more
TL;DR: Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) as discussed by the authors can now simultaneously evolve an interacting pair of differentially rotating stars undergoing transfer and loss of mass and angular momentum, greatly enhancing the prior ability to model binary evolution.

Abundances of the elements: Meteoritic and solar
Edward Anders,Nicolas Grevesse +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, new abundance tables have been compiled for C1 chondrites and the solar photosphere and corona, based on a critical review of the literature to mid-1988.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solar System Abundances and Condensation Temperatures of the Elements
TL;DR: In this article, solar photospheric and meteoritic CI chondrite abundance determinations for all elements are summarized and the best currently available photosphere abundances are selected, including the meteoritic and solar abundances of a few elements (e.g., noble gases, beryllium, boron, phosphorous, sulfur).
Journal ArticleDOI
Standard Solar Composition
Nicolas Grevesse,A. J. Sauval +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the current status of our knowledge of the chemical composition of the Sun is reviewed, essentially derived from the analysis of the solar photospheric spectrum, and a comparison of solar and meteoritic abundances confirms that there is a very good agreement between the two sets of abundances.

A grid of MARCS model atmospheres for late-type stars. I. Methods and general properties
TL;DR: In this article, an extensive grid of spherically-symmetric models (supplemented with plane-parallel ones for the highest surface gravities), built on up-to-date atomic and molecular data, is presented.
