We examine the generation of gravity waves by the surface convection zone of low-mass main sequence stars with solar metallicity. It is found that the total momentum luminosity in waves rises with stellar mass, up to the quasi-disappearance of the convection zone around 6500K (corresponding to a mass of about 1.4 Msun for solar metallicity) where the luminosity drastically drops. We calculate the net momentum extraction associated with these waves and explain how the calculated mass dependence helps resolve the enigma of the Li dip in terms of rotational mixing, forming a coherent picture of mixing in all main sequence stars.

    astro-ph.SR 2026-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In 45 O-type binaries, all seven helium-rich systems are short-period runaways, suggesting binary interaction is the main cause of helium enrichment.
