New Calculations of Stellar Wind Torques

Abstract

Using numerical simulations of magnetized stellar winds, we carry out a parameter study to find the dependence of the stellar wind torque on observable parameters. We find that the power-law dependencies of the torque on parameters is significantly different than what has been used in all spin evolution models to date.Comment: To appear in the proceedings for the 15th Cambridge Workshop on Cool Stars, Stellar Systems, and the Sun. 4 page poster contributio
