The present knowledge of stellar evolution is still limited today by large uncertainties that derive from the complex multi-dimensional processes occurring in stars. Among them, the turbulent motions of the stellar fluid control the size and evolutio...

Internal mixing processes in massive stars: uncertainties and impact (2022)
Thesis
Massive stars are key contributors to the evolution of galaxies and many observed phenomena. Therefore, understanding them is crucial to explain the evolution of the Universe and its constituents. The evolution of massive stars is strongly in uenced... Read More about Internal mixing processes in massive stars: uncertainties and impact.
Convective boundary structure and mixing in stellar interiors (2021)
Thesis
The treatment of convection remains one of the key uncertainties in stellar evolution. In particular, mixing processes at the boundaries of convective regions are complex and diffcult to define analytically. Therefore, hydrodynamic simulations are us...

Combining asteroseismic and s-process nucleosynthesis observations to constrain the evolution of rotating low-mass stars (2020)
Thesis
In this thesis, I study the evolution of low-mass (around 2 M?) solar-metallicity stars including the effect of rotation and magnetic fields. These stars produce a significant amount of elements heavier than iron via the so-called s process and thus...
