چکیده
We present a new abundance analysis of the super Li-rich star J37 and a comparison star in NGC 6633. We confirm the result of Deliyannis et al. that J37 has a Li abundance well above the meteoritic value, and we also confirm that Al, S, Si, Ca, Fe and Ni are super-solar, and C is sub-solar. We additionally find that Na, Sc, Ti are super-solar, while O is sub-solar. The abundance pattern of metals in J37 is generally consistent with the bulk composition of the Earth. We propose that accretion of circumstellar matter is the best explanation for these abundance anomalies, although we cannot rule out a secondary contribution from diffusion.

The unique eclipsing, weak-lined T Tauri star KH 15D has been detected as an X-ray source in a 95.7 ks exposure from the Chandra X-ray Observatory archives. A maximum X-ray luminosity of 1.5 ×10 29 erg s −1 is derived in the 0.5– 8 keV band, corresponding to L X /L bol = 7.5 × 10 −5. Comparison with samples of stars of similar effective temperature in NGC 2264 and in the Orion Nebula Cluster sh...

We present the results of detailed N-body simulations regarding the interaction of four massive globular clusters in the central region of a triaxial galaxy. The systems undergo a full merging event, producing a sort of 'Super Star Cluster' (SSC) whose features are close to those of a superposition of the individual initial mergers. In contrast with other similar simulations, the resulting SSC ...

Using spectra obtained with the Keck I telescope we have demonstrated conclusively that the faint (23≤V≤ 24 mag.) and unusually extended objects we discovered in HST images of the lenticular galaxies, NGC 1023 and NGC 3384, are star clusters associated with their respective galaxies. In the case of NGC 1023 we were further able to establish that these objects are old (≥7–8 Gyr), moderately meta...

Star formation in starbursts appears to be biased toward compact clusters, with up to 20% of all stars formed in them. Observations with HST show that many of these clusters have luminosities (−9 > M V > −16), UBVI colors, and half-light radii (R eff ≈ 3 pc) consistent with their being young globular clusters (YGC). Although we know little about the long-term stability of the youngest clusters ...

We present a detailed simulation of the performance of water Cerenkov detectors suitable for use in the Pierre Auger Observatory. Using geant4, a flexible object-oriented simulation program, including all known physics processes, has been developed. The program also allows interactive visualization, and can easily be modified for any experimental setup.
