The chemical evolution of stars within the Milky Way traces the complex interplay between nucleosynthesis, gas inflows and outflows, and dynamical processes that shape the Galaxy’s structure over ...

Space tends to reward expectations. Young galaxies should spin. Gas falls in, gravity takes hold, angular momentum builds, and the whole system settles into motion. That is why one faraway object ...

When the sun dies, it will become hundreds of times its current size and engulf the innermost planets. Earth may escape this infernal fate, according to state-of-the-art stellar evolution models.

Red supergiants (RSGs) are cool, evolved massive stars in their final evolutionary stage before exploding as a supernova. However, the evolution and fate of the most luminous RSGs remain uncertain.
