Low-mass population III (PopIII) stars of $\lesssim 0.8 M_{\odot}$ could survive up until the present. Non-detection of low-mass PopIII stars in our Galaxy has already put a stringent constraint on the initial mass function (IMF) of PopIII…
Stellar winds from fast-rotating Population III (Pop III) stars have long been suspected to make important contributions to early metal enrichment, as features in the nucleosynthesis of such `spinstars' are consistent with the chemical…

We present evolutionary models of zero-metallicity very massive objects, with initial masses in the range 120 Msun -- 1000 Msun, covering their quiescent evolution up to central carbon ignition. In the attempt of exploring the possible…
Observations of stellar rotation show that low-mass stars lose angular momentum during the main sequence. We simulate the winds of Sun-like stars with a range of rotation rates, covering the fast and slow magneto-rotator regimes, including…

By performing MHD simulations, we investigate the mass loss of intermediate- and low-mass stars from main sequence (MS) to red giant branch (RGB) phases. Alfven waves, which are excited by the surface convections travel outwardly and…
As a cool star evolves, it loses mass and angular momentum due to magnetized stellar winds which affect its rotational evolution. This change has consequences that range from the alteration of its activity to influences over the atmosphere…
We observe a sharp transition from a singular, high-mass mode of star formation, to a low-mass dominated mode, in numerical simulations, at a metallicity of 10^-3 Zsolar. We incorporate a new method for including the radiative cooling from…
We present a measurement of the energy carried and dissipated by Alfv\'en waves in a polar coronal hole. Alfv\'en waves have been proposed as the energy source that heats the corona and drives the solar wind. Previous work has shown that…
