On the Evidence of Disks around Blue Straggler Stars [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2005
Recent observations of blue stragglers by De Marco et al. (2004) have revealed continuum deficits on the blue side of the Balmer discontinuity, leading these authors to infer the presence of discs around the stars. This intriguing possibility may throw light on aspects of the mechanisms responsible for at least some of these objects; current theories ...

Three‐Dimensional Anomalous Hall Sensing Enabled By Spin–Orbit Torque Driven Domain Reconfiguration In Chiral Multilayers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional magnetic field sensor is realized in chiral W/CoFeB/MgO multilayers, where spin–orbit torques reversibly reconfigure homochiral stripe domains. The symmetry of the torque enables offset‐free in‐plane sensing, while the reproducible domain reconfiguration extends the linear out‐of‐plane range. An anomalous Hall readout delivers large‐

Magnetic Field Amplification during Stellar Collisions between Low-mass Stars

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Blue straggler stars in stellar clusters appear younger and bluer than other cluster members, offering a unique opportunity to understand the stellar dynamics and populations within their hosts.

Mass-luminosity anomalies: Plausible evidence of recent stellar interaction in the extraordinary blue straggler S1082

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. We present an observational and theoretical study of the complex stellar system S1082 in the open cluster M67. This system consists of at least four stars: a blue straggler in a 1.07-day eclipsing binary with a main sequence star (binary A) and ...

On the Variability of Blue Straggler Stars in the Globular Cluster M53 [PDF]

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998
We present the results of a search for photometric variable blue straggler stars (BSSs) in the globular cluster M53. Six of the 151 probable BSSs are identified as variable candidates based on the robust variable star detection technique of Welch ...

The Blue Straggler F190: A Case for Mass Transfer [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1992
The blue straggler F190 is a member of the old open cluster M67. We argue that F190 may still be in the final stages of the mass transfer that has made it into a blue straggler. We use the turnoff mass of the cluster and the mass function derived from the spectroscopic orbit for F190 to constrain the masses of each member of the binary, both before ...

Quantifying Subsurface Weak in‐Plane Magnetization of Mixed Phase BiFeO3 by Scanning Nitrogen Vacancy Magnetometry

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We use scanning nitrogen vacancy magnetometry to directly image the weak in‐plane magnetic moments in mixed phase BiFeO3 at the nanoscale and quantify the local magnetic moments to be 18.8±2.0 μB/nm2 in the rhombohedral‐like phase and 1.5±0.6 μB/nm2 in the well‐known non‐magnetic tetragonal‐like phase.

The Origin of Young Stellar Populations in NGC 1783: Accretion of External Stars

The Astrophysical Journal
The presence of young stellar populations in the Large Magellanic Cloud cluster NGC 1783 has caught significant attention, with suggestions ranging from it being a genuine secondary stellar generation to a population of blue straggler stars or simply ...

Census of Blue Straggler Stars in Distant Open Clusters and Maximum Fractional Mass Excess of Open Cluster Blue Straggler Stars

The Astronomical Journal
We identified blue straggler stars (BSSs) in 53 open clusters utilizing data from Gaia DR3. Most of these clusters are situated in the outer regions of the Galactic disk, encompassing structures such as the warp and the Outer arm.
