The impact of mass-loss on the evolution and pre-supernova properties of red supergiants (2014)
Journal Article
(2014). The impact of mass-loss on the evolution and pre-supernova properties of red supergiants. Astronomy & Astrophysics, A60 - ?

The post main-sequence evolution of massive stars is very sensitive to many parameters of the stellar models. Key parameters are the mixing processes, the metallicity, the mass-loss rate and the effect of a close companion. We study how the red super...
