蓝离散星的生态学

Ecology of Blue Straggler Stars

H. M. J. Boffin, G. Carraro, G. Beccari

摘要:

蓝离散星(BSS)的存在,看起来比它们的兄弟更年轻,更热,更大,与恒星演化的简单图像不一致,因为这样的恒星应该在很久以前就耗尽了核燃料并演化成为冷却的白矮星。因此,BSS可能只是一些怪癖,但事实上,他们的理解需要深入了解天文学的许多不同领域,从恒星演化到星团动力学,从化学丰度到恒星星族。2012年11月,在圣地亚哥欧洲南方天文台智利总部举办了关于这一重要专题的讲习班。本次研讨会涵盖的许多主题都是由非常全面的特邀评论介绍的,提供了对该领域的独特和深刻的看法。这些评论现在已经成为有史以来第一本关于BSS的书的章节。

英文摘要:

The existence of blue straggler stars (BSS), which appear younger, hotter, and more massive than their siblings, is at odds with a simple picture of stellar evolution, as such stars should have exhausted their nuclear fuel and evolved long ago to become cooling white dwarfs. As such, BSS could just be some quirks but in fact their understanding requires a deep knowledge of many different areas in astronomy, from stellar evolution through cluster dynamics, from chemical abundances to stellar populations. In November 2012, a workshop on this important topic took place at the ESO Chilean headquarters in Santiago. The many topics covered at this workshop were introduced by very comprehensive invited reviews, providing a unique and insightful view on the field. These reviews have now become chapters of the first ever book on BSS.
