Abstract In this invited review talk I summarize some of the recent observational advances in understanding mass loss from low-mass stars. This can take the form of a relatively steady wind, or stochastically occurring coronal mass ejections (CMEs). In recent years, there has been an expansion of observational signatures used to probe mass loss in low-mass stars. These observational tools span the electromagnetic spectrum. There has also been a resurgence of interest in this topic because of its potential impact on exoplanet space weather and habitability. The numerous recent observational and theoretical results also point to the complexities involved, rather than using simple scalings from solar understanding. This underscores the need to understand reconnection and eruption processes on magnetically active stars as a tool to putting our Sun in context.

Abstract We show the application of the δ- and Ω-slow hydrodynamical solutions to describe the velocity profiles of massive stars. In particular, these solutions can help to unravel some of the problems within the winds of massive stars such as the approximation of the β-law for the velocity profile of B supergiant stars and the slow outflow wind observed in Be stars.

Abstract Planets that orbit low- to intermediate mass main sequence (MS) stars will experience vigorous star-planet interactions when the host star evolves through the giant branches, including the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase, due to extreme luminosities and stellar outflows. In this work, we take the first steps towards understanding how a planet’s temperature profile and chemical composition is altered when the host star evolves from the MS to the AGB phase. We used a 1D radiative transfer code to compute the temperature-pressure profile and a 1D chemical kinetics code to simulate the disequilibrium chemistry. We consider a Jupiter-like planet around a Solar-type star in two evolutionary stages (MS and AGB planet) by only varying the stellar luminosity. We find that the temperature throughout the AGB planet’s atmosphere is increased by several hundreds of Kelvin compared to the MS planet. We also find that CO joins H2O and CH4 as a prominent constituent in the AGB planet’s atmospheric composition.

Abstract Detection of transients such as supernovae (SNe) and kilonovae (KNe) in early phase has recently become important for understanding the progenitor properties and multi-messenger astronomy. Predicting which galaxy has the higher probability of hosting the transient events would help detect the early phase of the events and get information on their progenitors. The SN and KN rates are known to be a function of star formation rate (SFR) and stellar mass of the host galaxy. The SFR of a galaxy can be estimated from ultraviolet (UV) luminosity. However, the UV magnitudes have been derived carefully only for a limited number of nearby galaxies. Here, we introduce GALEX galaxy catalog of all-sky UV brightness of low redshift galaxies. To do so, we derive the UV photometry of galaxies in the GLADE catalog using the GALEX AIS images, supplemented by GALEX NGS and MIS data. From the near-UV (NUV) and far-UV (FUV) magnitudes, we calculate the SFRs of the galaxies, which will further be useful for estimating the SN and KN rate. The results are compared with previous GALEX UV catalog of galaxies. There will be an updated catalog based on this catalog for calculating KN rate of the galaxies in the future work.

Abstract We explore the relationship between globular cluster total number, NGC, and central black hole mass, M•, in spiral galaxies. Including cosmic scatter, log M• ∝ (1.64 ± 0.24) log NGC. Whereas in ellipticals the correlation is linear [log M• ∝ (1.02 ± 0.10) log NGC], and hence could be due to statistical convergence through mergers, this mechanism cannot explain the much steeper correlation in spirals. Additionally, we derive total stellar galaxy mass, M*, from its two-slope correlation with NGC (Hudson et al. 2014). In the M• versus M* parameter space, with M* derived from NGC, M• ∝ (1.48 ± 0.18) log M* for ellipticals, and M• ∝ (1.21 ± 0.16) log M* for spirals. The observed agreement between ellipticals and spirals may imply that black holes and galaxies co-evolve through “calm” accretion, AGN feedback and other secular processes.

Abstract The evolution of giant molecular clouds (GMCs), which are the main sites of star formation, is essential for unraveling how stars form and how galaxies evolve. We analyzed the M33 CO(J = 2–1) data with spatial resolution of 39 pc obtained by ALMA-ACA 7 m array combined with IRAM 30 m. We identified 736 GMCs and classified them into three types; Type I: associated with no Hii regions, Type II: associated with Hii regions with the Hα luminosity L(Hα) < 1037.5 erg s-1, Type III: associated with Hii regions with L(Hα) > 1037.5erg s-1. We found that mass, size, and velocity dispersion of GMCs slightly increase in the order of Type I, II, and III GMCs. Type III GMCs mainly exist in the spiral arm, while many of Type I and Type II GMCs are distributed in the inter-arm. Assuming that the star formation proceeds steadily, we roughly estimated the total GMC lifetime of 30 Myr.

Abstract We examine the physical conditions required for the formation of H2 in the solar neighborhood by comparing H i emission and absorption spectra toward 58 lines of sight at b < −5∘ to CO(1–0) and dust data. Our analysis of CO-associated cold and warm neutral medium (CNM and WNM) shows that the formation of CO-traced molecular gas is favored in regions with high column densities where the CNM becomes colder and more abundant. In addition, our comparison to the one-dimensional steady-state H i-to-H2 transition model of Bialy et al. (2016) suggests that only a small fraction of the clumpy CNM participates in the formation of CO-traced molecular gas. Another possible interpretation would be that missing physical and chemical processes in the model could play an important role in H2 formation.

Abstract This paper reports on four of the sources observed in the KAGONMA (KAgoshima Galactic Object survey with the Nobeyama 45-m telescope by Mapping in Ammonia lines) project for which mapping observations have been completed (KAG35, KAG45, KAG64, and KAG71). In this study, we compiled the analysis results of four sources for which mapping observations were completed in the KAGONMA project and statistically investigated the range to which star formation activity affects the molecular gas. In order to investigate the affected range, we analyzed the heating range by focusing on the temperature distribution of the molecular cloud and found that it is within about 3 pc. This suggests that direct star formation feedback in molecular clouds is very spatially limited.

Abstract Due to observational constraints, our detailed knowledge of stellar populations, formation, and evolution of galaxies is limited to a few dozen galaxies located in the Local Group. The Local Group of galaxies offers a unique opportunity to construct the formation histories and probe the structure and dynamics of many dwarf galaxies surrounding the Milky Way and Andromeda and of isolated dwarf galaxies. In this regard, we monitored the majority of galaxies in the Local Group, including the M33 galaxy and satellites galaxies surrounding the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxy, as well as isolated dwarf galaxies. We identified stellar populations and based on light curve analysis, the cool evolved stars pulsating in the fundamental mode were identified. In this paper, first, we will present the results we obtained for SFH and dust production rate in individual galaxies separately to answer how different types of galaxies have been formed and evolved over cosmic time. Then, we will discuss whether the mass return from dusty evolved stars can provide enough gas reservoirs to sustain the star formation or even rejuvenate the dwarf galaxy, as some seem to harbor relatively young stars.

Abstract The winds of hot, massive stars are variable from processes happening on both large and small spatial scales. A particular case of such wind variability is ‘discrete-absorption components’ (DACs) that manifest themselves as outward moving density features in UV resonance line spectra. Such DACs are believed to be caused by large-scale spiral-shaped density structures in the stellar wind. We consider novel 3-D radiation-hydrodynamic models of rotating hot star winds and study the emergence of co-rotating spiral structures due to a local (pseudo-)magnetic spot on the stellar surface. Subsequently, the hydrodynamic models are used to retrieve DAC spectral signatures in synthetic UV spectra created from a 3-D short-characteristics radiative transfer code.
