We have investigated the evolutionary behaviour of intermediate mass (2, 3, 4, 5, and 7M
) Population I stars, assuming two different rates of rotation at the threshold of stability.In the first part of the study, stars are assumed to start with a critical rotation (fast rotation model) and to progress to the point of rotational instability. The stars evolve by losing mass and become rotationally unstable before they reach the zero-age Main Sequence. It is argued that multiple star systems might be formed through the evolution of rapidly rotating stars. An expression for the rotational mass loss rate is derived as a function of the physical parameters of stars.In the second part of the study, stars are assumed to rotate at a rate below the critical value (slow rotation model). The evolution of slowly rotating stars is followed as far as zero-age Main Sequence on the theoretical Hertzsprung-Russell diagram and compared with that of normal stars. The evolutionary paths are found to be more or less similar to those of normal stars; but their positions on the Main Sequence are characterized by effective temperatures and luminosities lower than those of normal stars. The zero-age Main-Sequence times of these stars are longer than those of normal stars. The rotational rates obtained for the zero-age Main Sequence are in good agreement with observed values. 相似文献

A semi-empirical formulation is given of the rate of stellar mass loss by stellar winds. Evolutionary studies of stars in the pre-main sequence (T Tauri) stage are presented for a variety of rates of mass loss. It has been found that different mass loss rates produce only small changes in the positions of equal evolutionary time lines in HR diagrams. Thus it is concluded that the spread of points in HR diagrams of young clusters results from a spread in their times of formation. This is consistent with the initiation of star formation by violent hydrodynamic compression of a typical interstellar cloud. 相似文献

Calculation of equation of state in stellar interiors becomes difficult as contained gas deviates from perfect gas. We present a method for the calculation of electron pressure in terms of density and temperature in the presence of degeneracy. The method is applicable forT<109 K, and requires complete ionization. 相似文献

The theoretical evolution of a first-generation star of 3M
after the core helium-exhaustion phase has been investigated. The star displays the character of a double shell burning model. Shell hydrogenburning produces energy mostly by the p-p chain reaction. CN-cycle reaction is only operating in the inner edge regions where sufficient amount of carbon is formed by the 3-reactions. Hence, the shell burning time of the star is longer than that of normal stars, thus lengthening the total evolutionary lifetime of the first-generation stars.Prior to carbon-burning phase, the mass of the complete hydrogen-exhausted region is 1.14M
and that of complete helium-exhausted region is 0.83M
. A carbon-oxygen core of about 0.87M
has developed within the star in which the ratio of carbon to oxygen is about 0.85, but decreases down to a value of 0.50 near the boundary of the core. 相似文献

The boundary convection zones of hot helium white-dwarf stars (WDSs) in the range 17000 KT
e30000 K are studied. Recently, an anisotropic mixing-length theory (AMLT) which determines the mixing-length parameter locally is applied for the convection zones calculation. Comparing with the calculations by using the (MLT), it is found that maximum velocity decreases appreciably, and the other boundary conditions are affected. 相似文献

The Main-Sequence positions as well as the evolutionary behavior of Population III stars up to an evolution age of 2×1010 yr, taking this time as the age of the Universe, have been investigated in the mass range 0.2 and 0.8M
. While Population III stars with masses greater than 0.3M
develop a radiative core during the approach to the Main Sequence, stars with masses smaller than 0.3M
reach the Main Sequence as a wholly convective stars. Population III stars with masses greater than 0.5M
show a brightening of at most 2.2 in bolometric magnitude when the evolution is terminated as compared to the value which corresponds to zero-age Main Sequence. The positions of stars with masses smaller than 0.5M
remain almost the same in the H-R diagram.If Population III stars have formed over a range of redshifts, 6相似文献

We have estimated the age of the open cluster NGC 2287 (M41) by taking into account the rotation of the member stars.TheUBV photoelectric measurement values were taken from Eggen (1974). Besides the Main-Sequence stars this cluster has seven red giants, all of them above the turn-off point.Having obtained the theoretical Hertzsprung-Russell diagram from observed colour-magnitude diagram, we have discussed two methods, given in the literature, to estimate the age of the cluster under consideration. The first method we have followed is to determine the turn-off point on the cluster Main-Sequence. The other is fitting the position of the red giants with the evolutionary tracks of rotating stars with different masses on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.We have estimated the cluster age based on the turn-off point as 3.10×107 yr. From the fitting of the evolutionary tracks of rotating stars to the cluster Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, we infer that the age of the cluster is about 8.00×107 yr. 相似文献

According to the work of Truran and Cameron, and of others, on the chemical evolution of the Galaxy, the first generation of stars in the Galaxy contained principally massive objects. If big-bang nucleosynthesis was responsible for the formation of helium, the first generation of stars would contain about 80% hydrogen and 20% helium, to be consistent with the approximately 22% helium found in recent stellar evolutionary studies of the Sun. The present investigation has followed the pre-main sequence evolution and the main sequence evolution of stars of 5, 10, 20, 30, 100, and 200M
. Normal stars in this entire mass range normally convert hydrogen into helium by the CN-cycle on the main sequence. the present hydrogen-helium stars of 5 and 10M
must reach higher central temperatures in order to convert hydrogen to helium by the proton-proton chains. Consequently, the mean densities in the stars are greater, and the surface temperatures are higher than in normal stars. In the stars of 20M
and larger, the proton-proton chains do not succed in supplying the necessary luminosity of the stars by the time the contraction has produced a central temperature near 108K. At that point triple-alpha reactions generate small amounts of C12, which then acts as a catalyst in the CN-cycle, the rate of which is then limited by the beta-decays occurring within the cycle. During the evolution of these more massive stars, the central temperature remains in the vicinity of 108 K, and the surface temperature on the main sequence approaches 105 K. The star of 200M
becomes unstable against surface mass loss through radiation pressure in the later stages of its main sequence evolution, and these mass loss effects were not followed. Young galaxies containing these massive stars will have a very high luminosity, but if they have formed at one-tenth the present age of the universe or later, then the light from them will mainly reside in the visible or ultraviolet, rather than in the infrared as has been suggested by Partridge and Peebles. 相似文献

The models of non-rotating and rotating 2.31M
\ stars of Population I composition have been calculated, starting at the threshold of stability. A 2.31M
\ star was chosen to compare the results with the observational parameters of the primary component of the well-known detached binary YZ Cassiopeiae. The effects of rotation on the internal structure during the evolution of the star were studied by constructing sequences of axisymmetric rotating models under the assumption that angular momentum was conserved according to a predetermined angular velocity distribution depending on the structure of the star.The first section of this paper deals with effects of rotation on the evolutionary behaviours of the 2.31M
\ star through the pre-Main-Sequence evolution as well as the zero-age Main Sequence.In the second section of this paper, the evolutionary studies have been extended up to near-hydrogen exhaustion phase in order to obtain a theoretical model corresponding to the given mass and radius of the primary component of YZ Cassiopeiae. The theoretical models were found to be in a good agreement with observational parameters. The computed rotating models of the primary of YZ Cassiopeiae indicates that its evolutionary age is 6.01×108 years; and the central hydrogen content 0.183 — which means that about 75% of its original value was depleted. 相似文献

The evolution of a first-generation 3M
star from the threshold of stability through the stage of helium exhaustion in the core has been studied. The total time elapsed is 4.174×108 yr and most of this time is spent in the blue-giant region of theH-R diagram. Hydrogen-burning near the Main Sequence occurs at a high central temperature via the proton-proton chain until the triplealpha reactions generate a small amount of C12 toward the end of the hydrogen-burning phase. The corresponding evolution time is longer than that of a normal population I star with the same mass. The ignition of the triple-alpha processes begins in a mildly degenerate, small convective core while the star still has a high surface temperature. Helium-burning in the core, coupled with hydrogenburning in the shell, occupies a period of about 1.8×107 yr, which is only one-third that of a normal star. The mass of the star interior to the hydrogen shell source has increased to a value of 0.50M
near the end of core helium exhaustion. This region maintains an inhomogenous composition composed of helium, carbon and oxygen. 相似文献
