UOCS-IX. AstroSat/UVIT Study of the Open Cluster NGC 2818: Blue Stragglers, Yellow Stragglers, Planetary Nebula, and their Membership

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present the first far-UV (FUV) imaging results of the intermediate-age Galactic open cluster NGC 2818 that has a planetary nebula (PN) within the field using images taken from the Ultra Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) aboard AstroSat.

Formation Channels for Blue Straggler Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this chapter we consider two formation channels for blue straggler stars: 1) the merger of two single stars via a collision, and 2) those produced via mass transfer within a binary. We review how computer simulations show that stellar collisions are likely to lead to relatively little mass loss and are thus effective in producing a young population ...

Investigating 16 Open Clusters in the Kepler/K2–Gaia DR3 Field. I. Membership, Binary Systems, and Rotation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Using data from Gaia Data Release 3 and Kepler/K2, we present a catalog of 16 open clusters with ages ranging from 4–4000 Myr that provides detailed information on membership, binary systems, and rotation. We assess the memberships in 5D phase space, and

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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

A rotation-based census of blue lurker candidates in open clusters

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. We have compiled a list of blue lurker (BL) candidates in open clusters using the available rotation catalogs. Blue lurkers are rejuvenated main-sequence stars hidden among normal main-sequence stars on color-magnitude diagrams of star clusters. In

Emergent Topological Magnons and Thermal Hall Effect in 2D Filling‐Enforced Fully Compensated Ferrimagnets

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of ferroelectric‐intercalation‐driven transitions in magnetic configurations and magnonic topological phases, together with the symmetry relations of magnonic Berry curvature. ABSTRACT Magnons in collinear magnets with vanishing net magnetization offer unique advantages for spin transport, including ultrafast dynamics and ...

On blue straggler formation by direct collisions of main sequence stars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1995
We report the results of new SPH calculations of parabolic collisions between main-sequence (MS) stars. The stars are assumed to be close to the MS turn-off point in a globular cluster and are therefore modeled as $n=3$, $Γ=5/3$ polytropes. We find that the high degree of central mass concentration in these stars has a profound effect on the ...

Integrated Field‐Free SOT Domain‐Wall Synapses and MTJ Stochastic Neurons for Hardware Boltzmann Machines

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Field‐free spin‐orbit torque domain‐wall synapses integrated with stochastic MTJ neurons enable compact hardware Boltzmann machines. Leveraging intrinsic stochasticity and multi‐level conductance, the system achieves efficient probabilistic learning with high accuracy, demonstrating a scalable spintronic platform for energy‐efficient edge AI.

Magnetic Field Amplification during Stellar Collisions between Low-mass Stars

open access: yesThe 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.
