A helium spread among the main sequence stars in NGC 2808
arXiv:astro-ph/0505347 · doi:10.1086/431968
Abstract
We studied the color distribution of the main sequence of the Globular Cluster NGC 2808, based on new deep HST-WFPC2 photometry of a field in the uncrowded outskirts of the cluster. The color distribution of main sequence stars is wider than expected for a single stellar population, given our (carefully determined) measurement errors. About 20% of the sample stars are much bluer than expected and are most plausibly explained as a population having a much larger helium abundance than the bulk of the main sequence. We estimate that the helium mass fraction of these stars is Y ~ 0.4. NGC 2808 may have suffered self-enrichment, with different stellar populations born from the ejecta of the intermediate mass asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars of the first generation. In addition to the Y=0.40 stars, roughly 30% of the stars should have Y distributed between 0.26-0.29 while 50% have primordial Y, to explain also the peculiar horizontal branch morphology. Three main stages of star formation are identified, the first with primordial helium content Y ~ 0.24, the second one born from the winds of the most massive AGBs of the first stellar generation (6-7msun), having Y ~ 0.4, and a third one born from the matter ejected from less massive AGBs (~ 3.5-4.5msun) with Y ~ 0.26-0.29. For a long hiatus of time (several 10^7yr) between the second and third generation, star formation might have been inhibited by the explosion of late Supernovae II deriving from binary evolution.
