Radiative hydrodynamics simulations of red supergiant stars - I. interpretation of interferometric observations

Context. It has been proposed that convection in red supergiant (RSG) stars produces large-scale granules causing observable surface inhomogeneities. This convection is also extremely vigorous and is suspected to be one of the main causes of mass-loss in RSGs. It should thus be understood in detail. Evidence has accumulated of …
