Fitting Formulae for the Effects of Binary Interactions on Lick Indices and Colours of Stellar Populations
Zhongmu Li, Zhanwen Han
More than about 50% stars of galaxies are in binaries, but most stellar population studies take single star-stellar population (ss-SSP) models, which do not take binary interaction…
How binary interactions affect spectral stellar population synthesis
Zhongmu Li, Zhanwen Han
Single-star stellar population (ssSSP) models are usually used for stellar population studies. However, more than 50% of stars are in binaries and evolve differently from single st…
Binary coalescence from case A evolution -- mergers and blue stragglers
Xuefei Chen, Zhanwen Han
We constructed some main-sequence mergers from case A binary evolution and studied their characteristics via Eggleton's stellar evolution code. Both total mass and orbital angular…
An Isochrone Database and a Rapid Model for Stellar Population Synthesis
Zhongmu Li, Zhanwen Han
We first presented an isochrone database that can be widely used for stellar population synthesis studies and colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) fitting. The database consists of the i…
Binary Stars as the Source of the Far-UV Excess in Elliptical Galaxies
Zhanwen Han, Philipp Podsiadlowski, Anthony E. Lynas-Gray
The discovery of an excess of light in the far-ultraviolet (UV) spectrum in elliptical galaxies was a major surprise in 1969. While it is now clear that this UV excess is caused by…
Distribution of Ni Yields of Type Ia Supernovae and its Implication for Progenitors
Bo Wang, Xiangcun Meng, Xiaofeng Wang +1
The amount of Ni produced in type Ia supernova (SN Ia) explosion is probably the most important physical parameter underlying the observed correlation of SN Ia luminosities…
