The effects of differential rotation on the spectral energy distribution and line profiles of the rapidly rotating star alpha Oph

Castañeda, Diego (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2012)

The spectrum of the rapidly rotating star [alpha] Oph was modeled to examine the effect differential rotation has on its observed SED. Rotating stellar structure models were generated using the code ROTORC and constrained ...
Effects of rotation on stellar spectra

Gillich, Aaron (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2007)

Models have been produced to study the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and absorption lines for rapidly rotating B stars. A fully implicit 2D stellar structure and evolution code was used to generate the rotating ...
Effects of stellar rotation on young cluster HR diagrams

Geroux, Christopher M. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2007)

This thesis investigates the effects of stellar rotation on the HR diagram location of members within young clusters. The rotational effects on luminosity and temperature of a star depend on the viewing angle and the ...
Models of Achernar : evolution and atmospheres of a rapidly rotating B star

Lovekin, Catherine (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2005)

I investigate the effects of varying internal angular momentum distributions on the SEDs of massive stars. Rapidly rotating stars are deformed by rotation, and the degree of deformation can give us a further constraint on ...
