The cores of main sequence intermediate-and high-mass stars are convective. Mixing at the radiative–convective boundary, waves excited by the convection, and magnetic fields …
We present the first 3D hydrodynamics simulations of the excitation and propagation of internal gravity waves (IGWs) in the radiative interiors of low-mass stars on the red giant …

Context. The transition between convective and radiative stellar regions is still not fully understood. This currently leads to a poor modelling of the transport of energy and chemical …
This thesis includes three research papers about the convective dynamics of fluids with composition gradients, motivated by how chemical elements are transported and mixed …
Giant planets like Jupiter, which undergo strong convection in their gaseous envelopes, might have composition gradients in their interiors. As the planet cools in time from its …
