Cover Story: Convection zones in many stars share boundaries with stable radiative zones. Through a host of processes that we collectively refer to as “convective boundary mixing” (CBM), convection can drive efficient mixing in these nominally stable regions. In this review, we discuss CBM research in the context of main-sequence stars through three lenses. (1) We examine the most frequently implemented 1D prescriptions of CBM. (2) Next, we examine the literature of CBM from a fluid dynamical perspective. (3) Finally, we discuss observational inferences regarding how much mixing should occur in the cores of intermediate- and high-mass stars. We conclude with a discussion of pathways forward for future studies to place better constraints on this difficult challenge in stellar evolution modeling. View this paper

30 March 2023

The optical and UV properties of radio-quiet (RQ) and radio-loud (RL, relativistically “jetted”) active galactic nuclei (AGN) are known to differ markedly; however, it is still unclear what is due to a sample selection and what is associa...

The Formalism of Milky-Way Antimatter-Domains Evolution

22 March 2023

If baryosynthesis is strongly nonhomogeneous, macroscopic regions with antibaryon excess can be created in the same process from which the baryonic matter is originated. This exotic possibility can become real, if the hints to the existence of antihe...
