Next: Star Formation Rate and Up: No Title Previous: Calculation of Evolutionary Tracks . To start calculations, we choose the distributions of the initial binary parameters: the mass of the primary ZAMS component, , binary mass ratio, , orbital separation a . ... whereas the mass ratio distribution is not. ... The zero assumption often made is that the mass ratio distribution has a flat shape, that is binaries with a high mass ratio occur as frequently as those with equal masses. ...

... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

... NRL . ... STScI . ... GSFC: Aerospace Building, 10210 Greenbelt Rd. ... Note that visitor badges for NRL need to be requested several days prior to the talk. ... The talks will be in room 408 of the Aerospace building, about 3/4 miles west of the GSFC main entrance at 10210 Greenbelt Rd (193). To get there, go out of the GSFC main gate and turn left, or continue past the main gate when coming from the BW Parkway. ... The visitor center is in the building just before (and outside) the gate. ...

... Evolution of the magnetic field (solid lines) , temperature (colour) , and velocity (arrows) at four times for case A1 (a), A2 (b), B1 (c), and B2 (d). The characteristic parameters of magnetic field strength and electron number density are given above each case plot. ... Aims We aim at investigating the formation of jet-like features in the lower solar atmosphere, e.g. chromosphere and transition region, as a result of magnetic reconnection. ...
