ABSTRACT Globular clusters are ideal laboratories to study the evolution of low‐mass stars. In this work we concentrate on three types of hot stars observed in globular clusters: horizontal branch ...

The constellation Hercules contains two of the finest globular star clusters visible in the Northern Hemisphere: M13 (below) and M92 (not shown -- yet!). Each contains several hundred thousand stars, ...

Shapely decided to map the distribution of globular clusters and measure their distances using variable star markers within ...

The term variable hints at their nature ... another type of cluster plays the opposite role. Globular star clusters, named after their globelike shapes, lie scattered far out in the galaxy's ...

The globular cluster, which is a spherical formation of stars held together by gravity, is 35,000 light-years from Earth. Our blue friend, a star dubbed HD 159073, is much closer at only (lol ...

The transmission consisted of a simple, pictorial message, aimed at our putative cosmic companions in the globular star cluster M13. This cluster is roughly 21,000 light-years from us, near the edge ...

This finding challenges existing theories by suggesting that these early star clusters could be the precursors to ancient globular clusters found in our Milky Way, opening avenues for deeper ...
