We develop a general formalism to treat, in general relativity, the nonradial oscillations of a superfluid neutron star about static (non-rotating) configurations. The matter content of these stars can, as a first approximation, be…
The spectrum of five stars is analysed and explained by the superimposition of two components. One is the extinction of the direct starlight, with an extinction coefficient A which varies as the inverse of the wavelength across all the UV.…
A set is star-shaped if there is a point in the set that can see every other point in the set in the sense that the line-segment connecting the points lies within the set. We show that testing whether a non-empty compact smooth region is…
In this manuscript, we obtain a plane wave decomposition for the delta distribution in superspace, provided that the superdimension is not odd and negative. This decomposition allows for explicit inversion formulas for the super Radon…
We study the rotational properties of inverted hybrid stars (also termed cross stars), which have been recently proposed as a possible new class of compact stars characterized by an outer layer of quark matter and a core of hadrons, in an…
We consider astrophysical objects such as main-sequence stars, white-dwarfs and neutron stars in a noncommutative context. Noncommutativity is implemented via a deformed dispersion relation $E^{2}=p^{2}c^{2}(1+\lambda E)^{2}+m^{2}c^{4}$…
The sonar transform in geometric tomography maps functions on the Euclidean half-space to integrals of those functions over hemispheres centered on the boundary hyperplane. We obtain sharp $L^p$-$L^q$ estimates for this transform and new…
Thermal convection is one of the main mechanisms of heat transport and mixing in stars in general and also in the photospheric layers which emit the radiation that we observe with astronomical instruments. The present lecture notes first…
The Sun has been known to rotate for more than 4 centuries, and evidence is also available through direct measurements, that almost all stars rotate. In this lecture, I will propose a review of the different physical processes associated to…
A moderately spinning neutron star acquires an oblate shape and a spacetime with a significant quadrupole moment. These two properties affect its apparent surface area for an observer at infinity, as well as the lightcurve arising from a…
We study the evolution of the rotation rate of a proto-neutron star, born in a core-collapse supernova, in the first seconds of its life. During this phase, the star evolution can be described as a sequence of stationary configurations,…
Thanks to missions like Kepler and TESS, we now have access to tens of thousands of high precision, fast cadence, and long baseline stellar photometric observations. In principle, these light curves encode a vast amount of information about…
Let $\mathcal R$ denote the generalized Radon transform (GRT), which integrates over a family of $N$-dimensional smooth submanifolds $\mathcal S_{\tilde y}\subset\mathcal U$, $1\le N\le n-1$, where an open set $\mathcal U\subset\mathbb R^n$…
We study a Radon-like transform that takes functions on the Grassmannian of $j$-dimensional affine planes in $\Bbb R ^n$ to functions on a similar manifold of $k$-dimensional planes by integration over the set of all $j$-planes that meet a…
Functions which are covariant or invariant under the transformations of a compact linear group $G$ acting in a euclidean space $\real^n$, can be profitably studied as functions defined in the orbit space of the group. The orbit space is the…
A simple example of an $n$-dimensional admissible complex of planes is given for the overdetermined $k$-plane transform in $\mathbb{R}^n$. For the corresponding restricted $k$-plane transform sharp existence conditions are obtained and…
We introduce and study a new Radon-like transform that averages projected differential p-forms in R^n over affine (n-k)-planes. We then prove an explicit inversion formula for our transform on the space of rapidly-decaying smooth p-forms.…
The standard Radon transform of holomorphic functions is not always well defined, as the integration of such functions over planes may not converge. In this paper, we introduce new Radon-type transforms of co-(real)dimension $2$ for…
We are going to study some conditions on which the Radon transform and its dual are invertible. Two function spaces are introduced that the Radon transform on which is bijective linear operator. In this regards, a reconstruction formula is…
This chapter discusses the use and possibilities of optical and infrared interferometry to study star formation. The chapter starts with a brief overview of the star formation process and highlights the open questions from an observational…
