Abstract: Magnetic braking is an integral process in the evolution of low mass stars, impacting their rotation and tied to their magnetic field, winds, and possibly the dynamo. The development of ...

Our 4.5-billion-year-old yellow-dwarf star used to be a rambunctious whippersnapper, much more active in its youth than middle age. But with age and maturity often comes stellar opportunity and a new ...

(Nanowerk News) Once upon a cosmic time, scientists assumed that stars apply an eternal magnetic brake, causing an endless slowdown of their rotation. With new observations and sophisticated methods, ...

Stars spin faster than expected as they age according to a new study which uses asteroseismology to shed new light on this emerging theory. Stars spin faster than expected as they age according to a ...

Chemically peculiar stars have long provided an intriguing window into stellar magnetism. These stars, which display anomalous abundances of certain elements in their atmospheres compared to typical ...
