Blue Straggler Stars in Berkeley 18: A Multiwavelength Study of Their Physical Properties and Dynamical Evolution
D. Bisht, Ing-Guey Jiang, K. Belwal +7
Berkeley~18 is an old open cluster in the outer Galactic disk that hosts a population of blue straggler stars (BSSs). We present a comprehensive multiwavelength analysis of its BSS…
Evolution of the dusty nova QY Mus from eruption to quiescence
Mohit Singh Bisht, A. Raj, F. M. Walter +3
We present a comprehensive study of the spectrophotometric evolution of the classical nova QY Mus from eruption to quiescence. The light curve shows a notable dust dip, classifying…
Multiwavelength Study of Blue Straggler Stars in Tombaugh 2: Evidence for Binary Mass Transfer and Constraints on Cluster Dynamical State
D. Bisht, Ing-Guey Jiang, K. Belwal +7
We present a focused multiwavelength study of blue straggler stars (BSSs) in the intermediate-age open cluster Tombaugh 2, located in the outer Galactic disk, to constrain the domi…
Time-Series Photometric Detection and Physical Characterization of Variable Stars in Four Intermediate- to Old-Age Galactic Open Clusters
K. Belwal, D. Bisht, Ing-Guey Jiang +4
We present a ground-based time-series photometric study of stellar variability in four intermediate- to old-age open clusters NGC 2192, NGC 2266, NGC 2509, and IC 1369 based on hig…
The Unexplored Dusty Nova LMCN 2009-05a in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Mohit Singh Bisht, A. Raj, F. M. Walter +4
We present a detailed spectrophotometric study of nova LMCN 2009-05a, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Photometric observations reveal a dust dip in the optical light c…
A Spectrophotometric analysis and dust properties of classical nova V5584 Sgr
Mohit Singh Bisht, A. Raj, F. M. Walter +4
In this work, optical observations of the nova V5584 Sgr are presented. These observations cover different phases including pre-maximum, early decline, and nebular. The spectra are…
The Dusty Aftermath of a Rapid Nova: V5579 Sgr
A. Raj, M. S. Bisht, F. M. Walter +10
V5579 Sgr was a fast nova discovered in 2008 April 18.784 UT. We present the optical spectroscopic observations of the nova observed from the Castanet Tolosan, SMARTS and CTIO obse…
