Descripción
CCD photometry for stars in three fields centered on the old open cluster NGC 188 is presented, with the aim of investigating the HR diagram distribution of cluster main-sequence stars. A sequence of subgiant, turnoff, and main-sequence stars has been detected, extending the observed lower main sequence down to about m(v) = 20 mag. It is found that the observed color-magnitude diagram appears well fitted by a theoretical isochrone for an age of about 6-billion yr, provided that Yale transformations from the theoretical into the observational plane are assumed. From the distribution of the stellar luminosities, it is found that the turnoff stars should have masses of about 1.3 solar mass. The cluster evolutionary scenario is discussed in connection with the reported luminosity of the clump of He-burning giants.

    Stellar halo density with LAMOST K and M giants

    Aims: We derive the morphology of the stellar component in the outer halo volume, and search for possible overdensities due to substructures therein. Methods: We made use of some of the data releases of the spectroscopic survey LAMOST DR8-DR9 in tandem with distance determinations for two subsamples, that is, of K-giants and M-giants, respectively

    Euclid preparation. XXXVI. Modelling the weak lensing angular power spectrum

    This work considers which higher order modeling effects on the cosmic shear angular power spectra must be taken into account for Euclid. We identified the relevant terms and quantified their individual and cumulative impact on the cosmological parameter inferences from Euclid. We computed the values of these higher order effects using analytic

    The discovery space of ELT-ANDES. Stars and stellar populations

    The ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph (ANDES) is the optical and near-infrared high-resolution echelle spectrograph envisioned for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). We present a selection of science cases, supported by new calculations and simulations, where ANDES could enable major advances in the fields of stars and stellar
