Galactic Globular Clusters as a test for Very Low - Mass stellar models
We make use of the Next Generation model atmospheres by Allard et al. (1997) and Hauschildt, Allard & Baron (1999) to compute theoretical models for low and very low-mass stars for selected metallicities in the range Z= 0.0002 to 0.002. On this basis, we present theoretical predictions covering the sequence of H-burning stars as observed in galactic globulars from the faint end of the Main Sequ...
متن کاملAnalytical galactic models with mild stellar cusps
In the past two decades, it has been established by high-resolution observations of early-type galaxies that their nuclear surface brightness and corresponding stellar mass densities are characterized by cusps. In this paper, we present a new spherical analytical model family describing mild cuspy centres. We study isotropic and anisotropic models of Osipkov-Merritt type. It is shown that the a...
متن کاملMulti - wavelength observations of stellar populations in Galactic globular clusters
I report on some recent results in the framework of a complex project aimed to characterize the photometric properties of stellar populations in Galactic Globular Clusters.
متن کاملThe Stellar Imf of Galactic Clusters and Its Evolution
We show that one can obtain a good fit to the measured main sequence mass function (MF) of a large sample of Galactic clusters (young and old) with a tapered Salpeter power law distribution function with an exponential truncation. The average value of the power law index is very close to Salpeter (∼ 2.3), whereas the characteristic mass is in the range 0.1− 0.5M⊙ and does not seem to vary in a ...
متن کاملConfronting Substellar Theoretical Models with Stellar Ages
By definition, brown dwarfs never reach the main-sequence, cooling and dimming over their entire lifetime, thus making substellar models challenging to test because of the strong dependence on age. Currently, most brown dwarfs with independently determined ages are companions to nearby stars, so stellar ages are at the heart of the effort to test substellar models. However, these models are onl...
