On the horizontal branch of the galactic globular cluster NGC 2808 [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2006
We present new UV (F218W) data for stars in the central region of the Galactic globular cluster NGC2808, collected with the WFPC2 camera on board of the Hubble Space Telescope. These data together with F439W and F555W-band data and previous ground based observations provide a multifrequency coverage of the cluster stellar population extending up to a ...

RR Lyrae variables in Galactic globular clusters: IV. Synthetic HB and RR Lyrae predictions

open access: yes, 2004
We present theoretical predictions concerning horizontal branch stars in globular clusters, including RR Lyrae variables, as derived from synthetic procedures collating evolutionary and pulsational constraints.

The distance to the Fornax Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A large multicolour, wide-field photometric database of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy has been analysed using three different methods to provide revised distance estimates based on stellar populations in different age intervals.

BV Stellar Photometry of 23 Galactic Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998
We report V-(B - V) CCD Color Magnitude Diagrams (CMDs) for 23 southern Galactic globular clusters. Limiting magnitudes for each cluster are between 18 and 20 magnitudes in V.

Effects of tidally enhanced stellar wind on the horizontal branch morphology of globular clusters

open access: yes, 2012
Metallicity is the first parameter to influence the horizontal branch (HB) morphology of globular clusters (GCs). It has been found, however, that some other parameters may also play an important role in affecting the morphology.

Simulation Study on Key Controlling Factors of Productivity of Multi-Branch Horizontal Wells for CBM: A Case Study of Zhina Coalfield, Guizhou, China

open access: yesEnergies
The multi-branch horizontal well for coalbed methane (CBM) is a core technical means to achieve efficient CBM extraction, and its productivity is jointly restricted by geological and engineering factors.

Analysis on economic benefits of coalbed methane drilling technologies

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2009
The coalbed methane (CBM) development activities in China are concentrated in the regions with low-permeability coal reservoirs. There are two kinds of drilling technologies: one is the conventional vertical well technology, the other is multi-branch ...

Planets around Extreme Horizontal Branch Stars [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2011
We review three main results of our recent study: We show that a proper treatment of the tidal interaction prior to the onset of the common envelope (CE) leads to an enhance mass loss. This might increase the survivability of planets and brown dwarfs that enter a CE phase.

Red horizontal branch stars: An asteroseismic perspective

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Robust age estimates of red giant stars are now possible thanks to the precise inference of their mass based on asteroseismic constraints. However, there are cases where such age estimates can be highly precise yet very inaccurate. An example is giants that have undergone mass loss or mass transfer events that have significantly altered their mass.
