Top] [Prev] [Next] . We will present a general overview of protostellar evolution in the context of planet formation, with a review of the "standard model" for star formation, which considers a single star forming in isolation. ... Since present technology allows us to discover and study disks in more detail than is yet possible for planets themselves, disks around young stars have much to tell us about the process of planet formation. ...

Next: The Evolutionary Status of Up: No Title Previous: Massive X-ray Binaries . After 25 years of pulsar studies, a radiopulsar has been discovered in a binary system with a massive optical companion (Johnston et al. ... As shown in the very first calculations of joint evolution of NS and normal stars in binaries (Kornilov and Lipunov, 1983b[ 86 ]) a considerable fraction (maybe, the majority) of NS in binary systems having an optical companion must be at the ejector љ (E) state. ...

Amanda Karakas One of the most important research fields in astrophysics is the study of the origin of the elements. ... Asymptotic Giant Blanch (AGB) Stars: For low and intermediate-mass stars (with initial masses between about 0.8 to 8 solar masses) the most important nucleosynthesis occurs when stars evolve off the main sequence to the giant branches. ... This indicates that these stars obtained their unusual abundances via mass transfer from a previous red giant star, that has long evolved away. ...
