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…

Detection of young massive white dwarfs in core-collapsed globular cluster NGC 362

R. K. S. Yadav, Arvind K. Dattatrey, Annapurni Subramaniam +2

Core-collapsed globular clusters are ideal targets to explore the presence of stellar collision products. Here, we have studied seventeen FUV bright white dwarf members in the glob…
