UOCS-XII. A study of open cluster NGC 6940 using UVIT/AstroSat: cluster properties and exotic populations
Anju Panthi, Kaushar Vaidya
We study an open cluster NGC 6940 using \textit{AstroSat}/UVIT data and other archival data. This is an intermediate age cluster ( 1 Gyr), located at about 770 pc distance, h…
UOCS-XI. Study of blue straggler stars in open cluster NGC 7142 using UVIT/AstroSat
Anju Panthi, Kaushar Vaidya, Nagaraj Vernekar +3
We present a study of blue straggler stars (BSSs) of open cluster NGC 7142 using AstroSat/UVIT data and other archival data. Using a machine learning-based algorithm, ML-MOC, on Ga…
Determination of dynamical ages of open clusters through the A parameter -- II
Khushboo K. Rao, Kaushar Vaidya, Manan Agarwal +2
Blue straggler stars (BSS), one of the most massive members of star clusters, have been used for over a decade to investigate mass segregation and estimate the dynamical ages of gl…
Hot Stellar Populations of Berkeley 39 using Swift/UVOT
Komal Chand, Khushboo Kunwar Rao, Kaushar Vaidya +1
Open clusters are excellent tools to probe the history of the Galactic disk and properties of star formation. In this work, we present a study of an old age open cluster Berkley 39…
Field blue straggler stars: Discovery of white dwarf companions to blue metal-poor stars using UVIT/AstroSat
Anju Panthi, Annapurni Subramaniam, Kaushar Vaidya +4
Blue metal-poor (BMP) stars are the main-sequence stars that appear bluer and more luminous than normal turn-off stars of metal-poor globular clusters. They are believed to be eith…
Study of blue metal-poor stars using UVIT/AstroSat
Anju Panthi, Annapurni Subramaniam, Kaushar Vaidya +5
Blue metal-poor stars are main-sequence stars that are bluer and brighter than typical turn-off stars in metal-poor globular clusters. They are thought to have either evolved throu…
