No country for old stars -Spectroscopic confirmation of the first intermediate-age RR Lyrae in the open cluster Trumpler 5
Valentina D'Orazi, Cecilia Mateu, Giuliano Iorio +13
RR Lyrae stars are widely considered tracers of ancient (greater than 10 Gyr), metal-poor stellar populations. However, recent kinematic and photometric studies suggest the existen…
Finding the elusive RR Lyrae companions via speckle imaging
R. Salinas, V. Kalari, G. Hajdu +25
Despite their key role in astrophysics, the binary properties of RR Lyrae stars (RRL) remain almost completely unknown since only a single RRL is confirmed as belonging to a binary…
Period-Luminosity Relations, projection factor and radii of Anomalous Cepheids
Piotr Wielgórski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Wolfgang Gieren +24
Anomalous Cepheids are radially pulsating stars observed in dwarf galaxies, the Galactic bulge and halo, and globular clusters. Similarly to other radially pulsating stars, they ca…
A search for Be stars in multiple systems within the solar neighborhood
V. M. Kalari, R. Salinas, C. Saez-Carvajal +9
Be stars are widely considered to be the product of binary interaction. However, whether all Be stars are formed via binary interaction is unclear, and detailed estimates of the mu…
Discovery of metal-poor and distant pre-main sequence candidates in WLM with JWST
Venu M. Kalari, Ricardo Salinas, Morten Andersen +4
We present the discovery of twelve metal-poor and distant pre-main sequence (PMS) candidates in the dwarf irregular galaxy Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte (WLM)~968 kpc away, at a present-da…
A high-resolution imaging survey of massive young stellar objects in the Magellanic Clouds
Venu M. Kalari, Ricardo Salinas, Hans Zinnecker +3
Constraints on the binary fraction of young massive stellar objects (mYSOs) are important for binary and massive star formation theory. Here, we present speckle imaging of 34 mYSOs…
