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

The Formalism of Milky-Way Antimatter-Domains Evolution

  • Orchidea Maria Lecian

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...

The Interplay between Radio AGN Activity and Their Host Galaxies

  • Guilherme S. Couto and
  • Thaisa Storchi-Bergmann

21 March 2023

Radio activity in AGN (Active Galactic Nuclei) produce feedback on the host galaxy via the impact of the relativistic jets on the circumnuclear gas. Although radio jets can reach up to several times the optical radius of the host galaxy, in this revi...

  • Gianfranco Brunetti

13 March 2023

We simulate the evolution of relativistic electrons injected into the intracluster medium by five radio galaxies. We study the spatial transport and the emission properties of the injected radio plasma over a ∼5 Gyr period, and the sequence of co...

Recently, a series of high-precision measurements by various experiments show that cosmic ray nuclei spectra begin to harden at ∼200 GV and the boron-to-carbon (B/C) ratio has a similar trend around the same energy. These anomalous structures pos...

Gravitational Instability of Gas–Dust Circumnuclear Disks in Galaxies

  • Roman Tkachenko,
  • Vladimir Korchagin and
  • Boris Jmailov

We numerically study the origin of the multi-armed spiral structure observed in the circumnuclear gaseous mini-disks of nearby galaxies. We show that the presence of dust in such disks and its interaction with the gravitationally stable gaseous compo...
