UV photometry of spotted stars in the horizontal branch of the globular cluster NGC 2808 using AstroSat

Deepthi S. Prabhu, Annapurni Subramaniam, Snehalata Sahu

A recent study of hot (20,000 to 30,000 K) extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars in globular clusters (GCs) has led to the discovery of their variability. It is suggested that this…

Peculiarities in the horizontal branch stars of globular cluster NGC 1851: Discovery of a Blue straggler companion to an EHB star

Gaurav Singh, Snehalata Sahu, Annapurni Subramaniam +1

We present a study of Far Ultraviolet (FUV) bright horizontal branch (HB) stars to understand the peculiarities seen in the HB sequence of the Globular Cluster NGC 1851, using grou…

UVIT/ASTROSAT studies of Blue Straggler stars and post-mass transfer systems in star clusters: Detection of one more blue lurker in M67

Annapurni Subramaniam, Sindhu Pandey, Vikrant V. Jadhav +1

The blue straggler stars (BSSs) are main-sequence (MS) stars, which have evaded stellar evolution by acquiring mass while on the MS. The detection of extremely low mass (ELM) white…
