Convective Boundary Mixing in Main-Sequence Stars: Theory and Empirical Constraints

The convective envelopes of solar-type stars and the convective cores of intermediate- and high-mass stars share boundaries with stable radiative zones. Through a host of processes we collectively refer to as “convective boundary mixing” (CBM), convection can drive efficient mixing in these nominall...
