Three-dimensional Simulations of Massive Stars. II. Age Dependence

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present 3D full star simulations, reaching up to 90% of the total stellar radius, for three 7 M _⊙ stars of different ages: zero-age main sequence (ZAMS), mid–main sequence (midMS), and terminal-age main sequence (TAMS).

Cluster formation versus star formation rates around six regions in the LMC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The stellar population and star clusters around six regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are studied to understand the correlation between star formation and cluster formation rates.

The Galaxy Population of Abell 1367: The Stellar Mass-Metallicity Relation

open access: yes, 2011
Using wide baseline broad-band photometry, we analyse the stellar population properties of a sample of 72 galaxies, spanning a wide range of stellar masses and morphological types, in the nearby spiral-rich and dynamically young galaxy cluster Abell 1367.

Cooling Flow Star Formation and the Apparent Stellar Ages of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Observational constraints and theoretical arguments indicate that cooled interstellar gas in bright elliptical galaxies forms into a young stellar population throughout the region within the half-light radius. The young population has a bottom-heavy, but

Evidence for Blue Straggler Stars Rejuvenating the Integrated Spectra of Globular Clusters

open access: yes, 2008
Integrated spectroscopy is the method of choice for deriving the ages of unresolved stellar systems. However, hot stellar evolutionary stages, such as hot horizontal branch stars and blue straggler stars (BSSs), can affect the integrated ages measured ...

Evolution of Mass Functions of Coeval Stars through Wind Mass Loss and Binary Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Accurate determinations of stellar mass functions and ages of stellar populations are crucial to much of astrophysics. We analyse the evolution of stellar mass functions of coeval main sequence stars including all relevant aspects of single- and binary ...

The age-metallicity relationship in the Small Magellanic Cloud periphery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present results from Washington CT1 photometry for eleven star fields located in the western outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), which cover angular distances to its centre from 2 up to 13 degrees (~ 2.2 - 13.8 kpc).

The Stellar Ages and Masses of Short GRB Host Galaxies: Investigating the Progenitor Delay Time Distribution and the Role of Mass and Star Formation in the Short GRB Rate

open access: yes, 2010
[Abridged] We present optical and NIR observations of 19 short GRB host galaxies, aimed at measuring their stellar masses and population ages. The goals of this study are to evaluate whether short GRBs track the stellar mass distribution of galaxies, to ...

Kinematic Age of the β-Pictoris Moving Group

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Accurate age estimation of nearby young moving groups (NYMGs) is important as they serve as crucial testbeds in various fields of astrophysics, including the formation and evolution of stars and planets, as well as loose stellar associations.
