NEAR-IR PHOTOMETRIC PROPERTIES OF HB, MSTO, AND SGB FOR METAL POOR GALACTIC GLOBULAR CLUSTERS [PDF]
We report photometric features of the HB, MSTO, and SGB for a set of metal-poor Galactic globular clusters on the near-IR CMDs. The magnitude and color of the MSTO and SGB are measured on the fiducial normal points of the CMDs by applying a polynomial ...

Horizontal Branch A- and B-type Stars in Globular Clusters [PDF]
Globular clusters offer ideal laboratories to test the predictions of stellar evolution. When doing so with spectroscopic analyses during the 1990s, however, the parameters we derived for hot horizontal branch stars deviated systematically from ...

Can Planets Influence the Horizontal Branch Morphology? [PDF]
As stars which have planetary systems evolve along the red giant branch and expand, they interact with the close planets. The planets deposit angular momentum and energy into the red giant stars' envelopes, both of which are likely to enhance mass loss ...

Non-variable horizontal-branch stars [PDF]
For 25 years our ignorance of the physical basis of this mass loss process has been the barrier to progress in understanding horizontal branch morphology. I review some recent observational and theoretical results which may be giving us clues about the nature of the mass loss process.

Blue Stragglers After the Main Sequence [PDF]
We study the post-main sequence evolution of products of collisions between main sequence stars (blue stragglers), with particular interest paid to the horizontal branch and asymptotic giant branch phases.

Double-Mode Radial Pulsations among RR Lyrae Stars [PDF]
Double-mode RR Lyr type stars are important for studies of properties of horizontal-branch stars. In particular, two periods coupled with spectral properties give a mass estimate that is independent of evolutionary models.

The empirical mass distribution of hot B subdwarfs: Implications for stellar evolution theory
Subdwarf B (sdB) stars are hot, compact, and evolved objects that form the very hot end of the horizontal branch, the so-called Extreme Horizontal Branch (EHB).

Line Broadening in Field Metal-poor Red Giant and Red Horizontal Branch Stars [PDF]
We report 349 radial velocities for 45 metal-poor field red giant and red horizontal branch stars. We have have identified one new spectroscopic binary, HD 4306, and one possible such system, HD 184711.

BV Stellar Photometry of 23 Galactic Globular Clusters [PDF]
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.
