Cosmic and Galactic Neutrino Backgrounds from Thermonuclear Sources
Cristiano Porciani, Silvia Petroni, Giovanni Fiorentini
We estimate energy spectra and fluxes at the Earth's surface of the cosmic and Galactic neutrino backgrounds produced by thermonuclear reactions in stars. The extra-galactic compon…
Classical Cepheid Pulsation Models: IX. New Input Physics
Silvia Petroni, Giuseppe Bono, Marcella Marconi +1
We constructed several sequences of classical Cepheid envelope models at solar chemical composition () to investigate the dependence of the pulsation properties pre…
Field and cluster RR Lyrae stars as stellar tracers
Silvia Petroni, Giuseppe Bono
We present an overview on pulsation properties of RR Lyrae stars in the Galaxy and in Local Group dwarf galaxies. We discuss the key information that RR Lyrae might provide on thei…
Variable stars in Stellar Systems
Giuseppe Bono, Silvia Petroni, Marcella Marconi
We discuss in detail the pulsation properties of variable stars in globular clusters (GCs) and in Local Group (LG) dwarf galaxies. Data available in the literature strongly support…
Galactic Models and White Dwarf Populations
V. Castellani, M. Cignoni, S. Degl'Innocenti +2
We make use of a previous well tested Galactic model, but describing the observational behavior of the various stellar components in terms of suitable assumptions on their evolutio…
The field of NGC 6397 as a test for Galactic models
V. Castellani, S. Degl'Innocenti, S. Petroni +1
Taking advantage of recent HST data for field stars in the region of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6397, we tested the predictions of several Galactic models with star counts r…
The stellar content of the Galaxy: the white dwarf population
M. Cignoni, V. Castellani, S. Degl'Innocenti +2
On the basis of theoretical evolutionary expectations, we develop a Galactic model reproducing star counts and synthetic color-magnitude diagrams of field stars, which include the…
