A Panchromatic Study of the Globular Cluster NGC 1904. I: The Blue Straggler Population
B. Lanzoni, N. Sanna, F. R. Ferraro +7
By combining high-resolution (HST-WFPC2) and wide-field ground based (2.2m ESO-WFI) and space (GALEX) observations, we have collected a multi-wavelength photometric data base (rang…
The Blue Straggler Population of the Globular Cluster M5
B. Lanzoni, E. Dalessandro, F. R. Ferraro +5
By combining high-resolution HST and wide-field ground based observations, in ultraviolet and optical bands, we study the Blue Stragglers Star (BSS) population of the galactic glob…
The radial distribution of blue straggler stars and the nature of their progenitors
M. Mapelli, S. Sigurdsson, F. R. Ferraro +3
The origin of blue straggler stars (BSS) in globular clusters (GCs) is still not fully understood: they can form from stellar collisions, or through mass transfer in isolated, prim…
The contribution of primordial binaries to the blue straggler population in 47 Tucanae
M. Mapelli, S. Sigurdsson, M. Colpi +5
The recent observation (Ferraro et al. 2003b) of the blue straggler population in 47 Tucanae gives the first detailed characterization of their spatial distribution in the cluster…
