On the degree of stochastic asymmetry in the tidal tails of star clusters
J. Pflamm-Altenburg, P. Kroupa, I. Thies +4
Context: Tidal tails of star clusters are commonly understood to be populated symmetrically. Recently, the analysis of Gaia data revealed large asymmetries between the leading and…
Asymmetrical tidal tails of open star clusters: stars crossing their cluster's prah challenge Newtonian gravitation
Pavel Kroupa, Tereza Jerabkova, Ingo Thies +14
After their birth a significant fraction of all stars pass through the tidal threshold (prah) of their cluster of origin into the classical tidal tails. The asymmetry between the n…
A tale of caution: the tails of NGC 752 are much longer than claimed
Henri M. J. Boffin, Tereza Jerabkova, Giacomo Beccari +1
Understanding the exact extent and content of tidal tails of open clusters provide useful clues on how field stars populate the Milky Way. We reanalyse, using Gaia EDR3 data, the t…
The 800pc long tidal tails of the Hyades star cluster: Possible discovery of candidate epicyclic overdensities from an open star cluster
Tereza Jerabkova, Henri M. J. Boffin, Giacomo Beccari +3
The tidal tails of stellar clusters provide an important tool for studying the birth conditions of the clusters and their evolution, coupling, and interaction with the Galactic pot…
The impact of strong recombination on temperature determination in planetary nebulae
V. Gomez-Llanos, C. Morisset, J. Garcia-Rojas +4
The long-standing difference in chemical abundances determined from optical recombination lines and collisionally excited lines raises questions about our understanding of atomic p…
Type II supernovae as probes of environment metallicity: observations of host HII regions
J. P. Anderson, C. P. Gutierrez, L. Dessart +10
Spectral modelling of SNII atmospheres indicates a clear dependence of metal line strengths on progenitor metallicity. This motivates further work to evaluate the accuracy with whi…
