Mixing in Low-Mass Stars: The Lithium-Rotation Connection
We have known for over three decades that the Sun has depleted its surface lithium. During this period it has become increasingly evident that mixing...
Mn I Lines with Hyperfine Structure Synthesized in Realistic Quiet-Sun Atmospheres
We present the first synthesis of Mn I lines in realistic multi-component magnetized quiet Sun atmospheres, including variation of magnetic field strength...
Mn-Cr isotopic systematics of Chainpur chondrules and bulk ordinary chondrites
We report on ongoing study of the Mn-Cr systematics of individual Chainpur (LL3.4) chondrules and compare the results to those for bulk ordinary chondrites...
Mn-Cr isotopic systematics of chondrules from the Bishunpur and Chainpur meteorites
Mn-Cr data are reported for chondrules from the Bishunpur and Chainpur LL chondrites. It is shown that variations in Mn/Cr for these chondrules were established...
MOBSTER: Identifying Candidate Magnetic O Stars through Rotational Modulation of TESS Photometry
Being relatively rare, the properties of magnetic O stars are not fully understood. To date fewer than a dozen of these stars have been confirmed, making any...
MOBSTER: Identifying Candidate Magnetic O Stars through Rotational Modulation of TESS Photometry
O-type stars display rotational modulation of their photometric brightness due to surface features induced by fossil magnetic fields, and possibly through...
Mode visibilities in radial velocity and intensity Sun-as-a-star helioseismic measurements
We analyze more than 5000 days of Sun-as-a-star radial velocity GOLF and intensity VIRGO observations to measure the visibilities of the I = 0, 1, 2, and 3...
Model Stellar Spectral Libraries for Analysis of the SDSS-III Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE)
The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) is obtaining high resolution ( 22,500), high signal-to-noise (> 100) spectra in the 1510...
Model-based optics and optomechanics for the New Robotic Telescope (NRT) design
The NRT is an international collaboration to design and build a leading astronomical facility in the optical and near infrared ranges for the emergent area of...
