AbstractIt is by now well known that most main sequence stars continuously lose mass as a consequence of the winds they emit. In addition to affecting the thermal and dynamical state of the stellar atmosphere, such mass loss can also induce changes in the interiors of stars. In the present review, we consider a few of the ways in which sustained, wind-like mass loss can alter the physical state of main sequence stellar interiors by examining the differences in internal structure, composition, and rotation between mass-losing and conservatively evolving stars.

Structure Constants

We present the main results of a study of the observed internal structure constants, k2, for a wide set of eclipsing binaries. From the analysis of the variations in relative positions of the eclipses and the comparison with different theoretical models, we could deduce that the discrepancy, previously reported by several authors between theory and observations, is no longer supported. Moreover, a strong correlation has been found between the evolution of the parameter k2 and the gravity at the surface of the star, g.

ABSTRACT The ratio of small-to-large separations r010 has been widely used in helioseismology and asteroseismology to investigate the internal structure of a star, as it is approximately independent of the structure of the outer layers. Several studies have used this tool to constrain the convective-core overshooting of main-sequence stars (i.e. 0.0 ≤ δov ≤ 0.2). This is consistent with the generally accepted values. However, Yang et al. have proposed that there is large convective-core overshooting in the Kepler targets KIC 2837475 and 11081729: 1.2 ≤ δov ≤ 1.6 and 1.7 ≤ δov ≤ 1.8, respectively. These are much larger than the normal values. Thus, the aim of this study is to re-investigate the ratios of the two stars using a model-independent method with the latest p-mode observations. Our results indicate that there is no robustness for including such a large convective-core overshooting while modelling these two stars. In fact, this leads to over-fitting, and the observational constraints of r010 prefer models with a normal convective-core overshooting (i.e. 0.0 ≤ δov ≤ 0.2) as the candidates for the best-fitting model of KIC 2837475 and 11081729.

Recent Advances

AbstractThe coronal structure of main sequence stars continues to puzzle us. While the solar corona is relatively well understood, it has become clear that even stars of the same mass as the Sun can display very non-solar coronal behaviour, particularly if they are rapid rotators or in a binary system. At masses greater than and also less than that of the Sun, the non-solar internal structure appears to affect both the geometry and dynamics of the stellar corona and the nature of the X-ray and radio emission. In this talk I will describe some recent advances in our understanding of the structure of the coronae of some of the most active (and interesting) main sequence stars.

Evidence previously presented by one of the authors (1) suggests strongly that chromospheric activity decreases with age in main sequence stars. This tentative conclusion rests principally upon a comparison of the members of large clusters (Hyades, Praesepe, Pleiades) with non-cluster objects in the general field, including the Sun. It is at least conceivable, however, that cluster and non-cluster stars might differ in some fundamental fashion which could influence the degree of chromospheric activity, and that the observed differences in chromospheric activity would then be attributable to the circumstances of stellar origin rather than to age.

SummaryFrom the analysis of the observational data of about 100 Ap stars, the radii have been computed under the assumption that Ap are main sequence stars. Radii range from 1.4 to 4.9 solar units. These values are all compatible with the Deutsch's period versus line-width relation.
