ALMA Observations of Non-uniform Dust Mass-loss in the Inner Circumstellar Environment of the Red Supergiant VY CMa
(2015)The processes leading to dust formation and the subsequent role it plays in driving mass loss in cool evolved stars is an area of intense study. Here we present high resolution ALMA Science Verification data of the continuum ... -
Mortality: a physics perspective
(2021)One of the many interests of the late Dietrich Stauffer was the modelling of mortality. Here we review the features of mortality data for various biological species. Age specific mortality (death rate) leads to a discussion ... -
Physical models of infant mortality: implications for defects in biological systems
