Rotation of Horizontal Branch Stars in Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Astrophysical Journal, 1999
The rotation of horizontal branch stars places important constraints on angular momentum evolution in evolved stars and therefore rotational mixing on the giant branch.

The peculiar Horizontal Branch of NGC 2808 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2010
We present an accurate analysis of the peculiar Horizontal Branch (HB) of the massive Galactic globular cluster NGC 2808, based on high-resolution far-UV and optical images of the central region of the cluster obtained with HST. We confirm the multimodal

Multimodal Distributions along the Horizontal Branch [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Astrophysical Journal, 1998
We report on HST/WFPC2 U,V and far-ultraviolet observations of two Galactic Globular Clusters (GGCs), NGC 6205 = M13 and NGC 6093 = M80. Both of these clusters have horizontal-branch (HB) tails that extend to the helium-burning main sequence, with the hottest stars reaching theoretical effective temperatures above 35,000 K.

Horizontal Branch evolution, metallicity and sdB stars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2011
Context. Abundance anomalies have been observed in field sdB stars and in nearly all Horizontal Branch (HB) stars of globular clusters with Teff > 11 000K whatever be the cluster metallicity. Aims.

Precision CCD Photometry of the Horizontal Branch [PDF]

open access: bronzeSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1995
The Strömgren four-color system is well suited to the measure and analysis of horizontal-branch stars. The increased accuracy of the CCD photometric system and the ability to measure fainter stars in very crowded regions make the combination of the CCD system and four-color photometry an excellent one to study horizontal-branch stars in globular ...

Horizontal Branch Stellar Evolution

open access: green, 1995
I review aspects of the evolution of horizontal branch (HB) stars. I start by discussing current topics in the study of HB stellar evolution, including a brief review of the main determinants of the structure of low-mass core helium burning stars and of HB morphology.

Mass Loss on the Horizontal Branch: An Application to NGC 6791 [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Astrophysical Journal, 2000
The presence of a substantial number of hot stars in the extremely metal-rich} open cluster NGC6791 has been a mystery. If these hot stars are in their core helium burning phase, they are significantly bluer (hotter) than predicted by canonical stellar evolution theory. No obvious explanation is available yet.

Rotation, planets, and the 'second parameter' of the horizontal branch [PDF]

open access: bronzeMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2000
We analyze the angular momentum evolution from the red giant branch (RGB) to the horizontal branch (HB) and along the HB. Using rotation velocities for stars in the globular cluster M13, we find that the required angular momentum for the fast rotators is up to 1-3 orders of magnitude (depending on some assumptions) larger than that of the sun.

Identification of Blue Horizontal-branch Stars from LAMOST DR5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We construct a new catalog of the blue horizontal-branch (BHB) stars from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) DR5 data set, which contains 5355 + 81 BHB stars at high Galactic latitude (∣Glat∣ > 20°).
