Observations of Spin-Down in Post-Mast-Transfer Stars and the Possibility for Blue Straggler Gyrochronology
Emily Leiner, Robert Mathieu, Natalie Gosnell +1
Blue stragglers and other mass transfer/collision products are likely born with rapid rotation rates due to angular momentum transfer during mass-transfer, merger or collisional fo…

Constraints on blue straggler formation mechanisms in Galactic globular clusters from proper motion velocity distributions
N. W. C. Leigh, T. Panurach, M. Simunovic +10
For a sample of 38 Galactic globular clusters (GCs), we confront the observed distributions of blue straggler (BS) proper motions and masses (derived from isochrone fitting) from t…

A plethora of new R Coronae Borealis stars discovered from a dedicated spectroscopic follow-up survey
P. Tisserand, G. C. Clayton, M. S. Bessell +7
It is increasingly suspected that the rare R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars - hydrogen-deficient and carbon-rich supergiant stars - are the products of mergers of CO/He white-dwarf b…
