AGB stars in the SMC: evolution and dust properties based on Spitzer observations
F. Dell'Agli, D. A. García-Hernández, P. Ventura +3
We study the population of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) by means of full evolutionary models of stars of mass 1Msun < M < 8Msun, evolved…
The extended Main Sequence Turn Off cluster NGC1856: rotational evolution in a coeval stellar ensemble
F. D'Antona, M. Di Criscienzo, T. Decressin +3
Multiple or extended turnoffs in young clusters in the Magellanic Clouds have recently received large attention. A number of studies have shown that they may be interpreted as the…
An HST/WFC3 view of stellar populations on the Horizontal Branch of NGC 2419
M. Di Criscienzo, M. Tailo, A. P. Milone +4
We use images acquired with the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 and new models to probe the Horizontal Branch (HB) population of the We use images acquired with the Hubb…
A test for asymptotic giant branch evolution theories: Planetary Nebulae in the Large Magellanic Cloud
P. Ventura, L. Stanghellini, F. Dell'Agli +2
We used a new generation of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stellar models that include dust formation in the stellar winds to find the links between evolutionary models and the obse…
Rapidly rotating second-generation progenitors for the blue hook stars of ω Cen
Marco Tailo, Francesca D'Antona, Enrico Vesperini +9
Horizontal Branch stars belong to an advanced stage in the evolution of the oldest stellar galactic population, occurring either as field halo stars or grouped in globular clusters…
The Large Magellanic Cloud as a laboratory for Hot Bottom Burning in massive Asymptotic Giant Branch stars
P. Ventura, A. I. Karakas, F. Dell'Agli +4
We use Spitzer observations of the rich population of Asymptotic Giant Branch stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) to test models describing the internal structure and nucleos…
