Mass Loss in Pre-main-sequence Stars via Coronal Mass Ejections and Implications for Angular Momentum Loss
(IOP Publishing, 2012)
We develop an empirical model to estimate mass-loss rates via coronal mass ejections (CMEs) for solar-type pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars. Our method estimates the CME mass-loss rate from the observed energies of PMS X-ray ...
Angular momentum evolution of low‐mass pre‐main sequence stars via extreme coronal mass ejections
(WILEY‐VCH Verlag, 2013-02)
The angular momentum evolution of cool stars during the pre‐main sequence phase of stellar evolution remains a major outstanding problem. Multiple processes are likely involved in the transfer of mass and angular momentum ...
Mechanical equilibrium of hot, large‐scale magnetic loops on T Tauri stars
(Blackwell Publishing LtdWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2012-04-01)
The most extended, closed magnetic loops inferred on T Tauri stars confine hot, X‐ray‐emitting plasma at distances from the stellar surface beyond the X‐ray‐bright corona and closed large‐scale field, distances comparable ...
