Simple stellar population models including blue stragglers
Observations show that nearly all star clusters and stellar populations contain blue straggler stars (BSs). BSs in a cluster can significantly enhance the integrated spectrum of the host population, preferentially at short wavelengths, and render it much bluer in photometric colours. Current theoretical simple stellar population (SSP) models constructed within the traditional framework of singl...
متن کاملStellar population synthesis diagnostics
A quantitative method is presented to compare observed and synthetic colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs). The method is based on a χ merit function for a point (ci,mi) in the observed CMD, which has a corresponding point in the simulated CMD within nσ(ci,mi) of the error ellipse. The χ merit function is then combined with the Poisson merit function of the points for which no corresponding point wa...
متن کاملIntracluster Stellar Population
I shall review the latest results for the presence of diffuse light in nearby clusters, and the evidence of ongoing star formation in an intracluster Virgo field. I shall discuss how intracluster planetary nebulae can be used as excellent tracers of the diffuse stellar population in nearby clusters. Their number density distribution, density profile and radial velocity distribution provide obse...
متن کاملConnection between Dynamically Derived Imf Normalisation and Stellar Population Parameters
We report on empirical trends between the dynamically determined stellar initial mass function (IMF) and stellar population properties for a complete, volume-limited sample of 260 early-type galaxies from the ATLAS project. We study trends between our dynamically-derived IMF normalisation αdyn ≡ (M/L)stars/(M/L)Salp and absorption line strengths, and interpret these via single stellar populatio...
متن کاملStellar Population Variations in the Milky Way’s Stellar Halo
If the stellar halos of disk galaxies are built up from the disruption of dwarf galaxies, models predict highly structured variations in the stellar populations within these halos. We test this prediction by studying the ratio of blue horizontal branch stars (BHB stars; more abundant in old, metal-poor populations) to main-sequence turn-off stars (MSTO stars; a feature of all populations) in th...
