Dynamical Substructures of Galactic Globular Clusters III. NGC 7006 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2005
To study the effects of giant population on dynamical substructures of the central region of NGC 7006, we examine the radial variations of ellipticity and position angle on BV stellar photometry using ellipse fitting technique.

Multiple stellar populations in the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6752

open access: yes, 2009
We have carried out high-precision photometry on a large number of archival HST images of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6752, to search for signs of multiple stellar populations. We find a broadened main sequence, and demonstrate that this broadening

A New Color-Magnitude Diagram for Palomar 11 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present new photometry for the Galactic thick disk globular cluster Palomar 11 extending well past the main sequence turn-off in the V and I bands. This photometry shows noticeable red giant and subgiant branches.

Medium-resolution Spectroscopy of Red Giant Branch Stars in ω Centauri [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2017
Abstract We present [Fe/H] and [Ca/Fe] of ∼600 red giant branch (RGB) members of the globular cluster Omega Centauri ( ). We collect medium-resolution ( ) spectra using the Blanco 4 m telescope at the Cerro ...

Observation of the Halo of NGC 3077 Near the "Garland" Region Using the Hubble Space Telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We report the detection of upper main sequence stars and red giant branch stars in the halo of an amorphous galaxy, NGC3077. The observations were made using Wide Field Planetary Camera~2 on board the Hubble Space Telescope.

Why hot horizontal branch stars can appear redder than red giants [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2003
In this paper we report on a curious feature in the V, (U-B) color-magnitude diagrams of globular clusters. In our database, we find that a considerable fraction of blue horizontal branch stars, hotter than the instability strip and cooler than the Grundahl et al.

Photon Avalanching Nanoparticles: The Next Generation of Upconverting Nanomaterials?

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective outlines the mechanistic foundations that enable photon‐avalanche (PA) behavior in lanthanide nanomaterials and contrasts them with emerging application spaces and forward‐looking design strategies. By bridging threshold engineering, energy‐transfer dynamics, and materials engineering, we provide a coherent roadmap for advancing the ...

Asteroseismology of Very Low-Frequency Red Giants with Kepler: the Breakdown of the Asymptotic Relation

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
As the Kepler time series grew, so did the interest in the asteroseismology of very low-frequency solar-like oscillators. It is possible to accurately resolve modes for stars near the tip of the red giant branch.

Blue Stragglers After the Main Sequence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
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.

CYANOGEN IN NGC 1851 RED GIANT BRANCH AND ASYMPTOTIC GIANT BRANCH STARS: QUADRIMODAL DISTRIBUTIONS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2012
The Galactic globular cluster NGC 1851 has raised much interest since Hubble Space Telescope photometry revealed that it hosts a double subgiant branch. Here we report on our homogeneous study into the cyanogen (CN) band strengths in the red giant branch (RGB) population (17 stars) and asymptotic giant branch (AGB) population (21 stars) using AAOmega ...
