How Robust is the Cosmic Distance with Tip of Red Giant Branch against Stellar Population Variations?
Chul Chung, Young-Wook Lee, Suk-Jin Yoon +10
The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) provides a key standard candle for extragalactic distance measurements and for refining the Hubble constant. We test its robustness by quanti…
Near-Infrared Spectroscopy with IGRINS-2 for Studying Multiple Stellar Populations in Globular Clusters
Dongwook Lim, Young-Wook Lee, Sol Yun +53
Recent advancements in near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy have opened new opportunities for studying multiple stellar populations in globular clusters (GCs), particularly for newly d…
Strong progenitor age bias in supernova cosmology. I. Robust and ubiquitous evidence from a larger sample of host galaxies in a broader redshift range
Chul Chung, Seunghyun Park, Junhyuk Son +2
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) serve as the most crucial standardizable candles in cosmology, providing direct measurements of the universe's expansion history. However, it is well-kn…
Comparison of chemical compositions between the bright and faint red clumps for the metal-poor and metal-rich populations in the Milky Way bulge
Seungsoo Hong, Dongwook Lim, Young-Wook Lee
We examined the double red clump (RC) observed in the Galactic bulge, interpreted as a difference in distance ("X-shaped bulge scenario") or in chemical composition ("multiple popu…
Two stellar populations with different metallicities in the low-mass globular cluster Gran 5
Dongwook Lim, Sang-Hyun Chun, Young-Wook Lee +3
Context. With the increasing number of discoveries of globular clusters in the inner Milky Way, the need for spectroscopic confirmation and further investigation of their stellar p…
Chemical homogeneity of wide binary system: An approach from Near-Infrared spectroscopy
Dongwook Lim, Andreas J. Koch-Hansen, Seungsoo Hong +2
Wide binaries, with separations between two stars from a few AU to more than several thousand AU, are valuable objects for various research topics in Galactic astronomy. As the num…
On the root cause of the host `mass-step' in the Hubble residuals of type Ia supernovae
Chul Chung, Suk-Jin Yoon, Seunghyun Park +4
It is well established that the Hubble residuals of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) show the luminosity step with respect to their host galaxy stellar masses. This `mass-step' is taken…
High-resolution near-infrared spectroscopy of globular cluster and field stars toward the Galactic bulge
Dongwook Lim, Andreas J. Koch-Hansen, Sang-Hyun Chun +2
Globular clusters (GCs) play an important role in the formation and evolution of the Milky Way. New candidates are continuously found, particularly in the high-extinction low-latit…
Nonlinear Color-Metallicity Relations of Globular Clusters. V. Nonlinear Absorption-line Index versus Metallicity Relations and Bimodal Index Distributions of M31 Globular Clusters
Sooyoung Kim, Suk-Jin Yoon, Chul Chung +5
Recent spectroscopy on the globular cluster (GC) system of M31 with unprecedented precision witnessed a clear bimodality in absorption-line index distributions of old GCs. Such div…
