Multiple stellar populations in Magellanic Cloud clusters. V. The split main sequence of the young cluster NGC1866
A. P. Milone, A. F. Marino, F. D'Antona +7
One of the most unexpected results in the field of stellar populations of the last few years, is the discovery that some Magellanic-Cloud globular clusters younger than ~400 Myr, e…
The Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters -- XI. The horizontal branch in NGC\,6388 and NGC\,6441
M. Tailo, F. D'Antona, A. P. Milone +12
The Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy survey of Galactic Globular Clusters (GC) is characterising many different aspects of their multiple stellar populations. The "Grundahl-jump" (…
Evidence of AGB pollution in Galactic globular clusters from the Mg-Al anticorrelations observed by the APOGEE survey
P. Ventura, D. A. García--Hernández, F. Dell'Agli +8
We study the formation of multiple populations in globular clusters (GC), under the hypothesis that stars in the second generation formed from the winds of intermediate-mass stars,…
Studying the evolution of AGB stars in the Gaia epoch
M. Di Criscienzo, P. Ventura, D. A. Garcia-Hernandez +6
We present asymptotic giant branch (AGB) models of solar metallicity, to allow the interpretation of observations of Galactic AGB stars, whose distances should be soon available af…
Planetary Nebulae in the Small Magellanic Cloud
P. Ventura, L. Stanghellini, M. Di Criscienzo +2
We analyse the planetary nebulae (PNe) population of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), based on evolutionary models of stars with metallicities in the range $10^{-3} \leq Z \leq 4\…
Probing O-enrichment in C-rich dust planetary nebulae
D. A. Garcia-Hernandez, P. Ventura, G. Delgado-Inglada +3
The abundance of O in planetary nebulae (PNe) has been historically used as a metallicity indicator of the interstellar medium (ISM) where they originated; e.g., it has been widely…
The mosaic multiple stellar populations in Centauri : the Horizontal Branch and the Main Sequence
Marco Tailo, Marcella Di Criscienzo, Francesca D'Antona +2
We interpret the stellar population of Centauri by means of a population synthesis analysis, following the most recent observational guidelines for input metallicities, helium…
On the nature of the most obscured C-rich AGB stars in the Magellanic Clouds
P. Ventura, A. I. Karakas, F. Dell'Agli +3
The stars in the Magellanic Clouds with the largest degree of obscuration are used to probe the highly uncertain physics of stars in the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase of evol…
