Hubble Space Telescope survey of Magellanic Cloud star clusters. Photometry and astrometry of 113 clusters and early results
A. P. Milone, G. Cordoni, A. F. Marino +29
In the past years, we have undertaken an extensive investigation of LMC and SMC star clusters based on HST data. We present photometry and astrometry of stars in 101 fields observe…
The initial spin distribution of B-type stars revealed by the split main sequences of young star clusters
Chen Wang, Ben Hastings, Abel Schootemeijer +6
Spectroscopic observations of stars in young open clusters have revealed evidence for a dichotomous distribution of stellar rotational velocities, with 10-30% of stars rotating slo…
Massive stars in metal-poor dwarf galaxies are often extreme rotators
Abel Schootemeijer, Danny J. Lennon, Miriam Garcia +3
We probe how common extremely rapid rotation is among massive stars in the early universe by measuring the OBe star fraction in nearby metal-poor dwarf galaxies. We apply a new met…
A census of OBe stars in nearby metal-poor dwarf galaxies reveals a high fraction of extreme rotators
A. Schootemeijer, D. J. Lennon, M. Garcia +3
The Early Universe, together with many nearby dwarf galaxies, is deficient in heavy elements. The evolution of massive stars in such environments is thought to be affected by rotat…
Stellar mergers as the origin of the blue main-sequence band in young star clusters
Chen Wang, Norbert Langer, Abel Schootemeijer +10
Recent high-quality Hubble Space Telescope (HST) photometry shows that the main sequences (MS) stars of young star clusters form two discrete components in the color-magnitude diag…
