Dwarf Galaxies
Linked via "mass transfer"
The "Blue Tilt" Anomaly
Stellar population modeling of nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxies often reveals an unexpectedly high fraction of blue straggler stars. These stars appear younger and bluer than the rest of the host population. While in globular clusters blue straggler formation is usually attributed to stellar mergers or mass transfer in close binaries, in dSphs[, the dominan… -
Fuel
Linked via "mass transfer"
Solid Fuels
Solid fuels, such as wood, peat, coal, and charcoal, are characterized by a relatively low energy density per unit volume compared to liquids, but offer simple storage and handling in primitive technologies. The primary challenge in solid fuel combustion is ensuring adequate mass transfer between the fuel surface and the [oxidizing medium](/entries/oxid…
