Halo Surrounding the Galactic Globular Ngc 1851
Using imaging that shows four magnitudes of main sequence stars, we have discovered that the Galactic globular cluster NGC 1851 is surrounded by a halo that is visible from the tidal radius of 700 arcsec (41 pc) to more than 4500 arcsec (>250 pc). This halo is symmetric and falls in density as a power law of r. It contains approximately 0.1% of the dynamical mass of NGC 1851. There is no eviden...
متن کاملAbundances in giant stars of the globular cluster NGC 6752 ⋆
Recent theoretical yields and chemical evolution models demonstrate that intermediate-mass AGB stars cannot reproduce the observed abundance distributions of O, Na, Mg, and Al. As a further observational test of this finding, we present elemental abundance ratios [X/Fe] for 20 elements in 38 bright giants of the globular cluster NGC 6752 based on high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectra ob...
متن کاملRed giant depletion in globular cluster cores
We investigate the observed depletion of red giants in the cores of post-core-collapse globular clusters. In particular, the evolutionary scenario we consider is a binary consisting of two lowmass stars which undergoes two common-envelope phases. The first common-envelope phase occurs when the primary is a red giant resulting in a helium white dwarf and main-sequence star in a detached binary. ...
متن کاملThe galactic globular cluster NGC 1851: its dynamical and evolutionary properties
We have completely mapped the Galactic globular cluster NGC 1851 with large-field, ground-based V I CCD photometry and pre-repair HST /WFPC1 data for the central region. The photometric data set has allowed a V vs. (V − I) colour–magnitude diagram for ∼ 20500 stars to be constructed. From the apparent luminosity of the horizontal branch (HB) we derive a true distance modulus (m−M)0 = 15.44 ± 0....
متن کاملa synchronic and diachronic approach to the change route of address terms in the two recent centuries of persian language
terms of address as an important linguistics items provide valuable information about the interlocutors, their relationship and their circumstances. this study was done to investigate the change route of persian address terms in the two recent centuries including three historical periods of qajar, pahlavi and after the islamic revolution. data were extracted from a corpus consisting 24 novels w...
