Determine the age of an open cluster (M41)

I'm currently conducting a photometric study of the M41 open cluster and have successfully built its Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. Now, I'd like to estimate the age of the cluster by fitting an ... Sasha Gambazzi's user avatar Sasha Gambazzi

Using Gaia Passbands with L_nu coordinates

I am trying to find the coordinates of my bundles of gas on the gaia ($G, G_{bp}-G_{rp}$) hr diagram. I have its spectrum in $\nu L_\nu$ coordinates. Thus far, my attempts have mainly been to ... Berkin's user avatar Berkin

Unusual amount of white dwarfs in star clusters in my analysis

I'm trying to plot H-R Diagrams of open clusters using data from Gaia DR3. My workflow is something like this: Plot apparent magnitude vs log(distance) in pc. An overdensity would indicate the ... Ambica Govind's user avatar Ambica Govind

How do nuJ(nu) units work?

I'm working with (Nublado) Cloudy, which is essentially a spectral modelling tool for stellar matter. Using the software, I model my own stellar object and obtain its continuum. According to Hazy, ... Berkin's user avatar Berkin

How do you use Gaia Passbands to find Gbp-Grp Coordinates?

I've never used Gaia passbands, or any type of passbands before for that matter. I have a theoretical model of a stellar object, and its corresponding emissions as a function of wavelength. I'd like ... Berkin's user avatar Berkin

Difference in HR diagram clusters

I was wondering what the difference in an HR-diagram would be between an open and globular cluster. I've trying to compare both by looking up diagrams online, but can't find diagrams with same axes. I ... Andromeda's user avatar Andromeda

Is there a general way to plot the evolutionary track of a star on HR diagram?

HR diagrams for stars are available on the internet and it is also easy to plot this for thousands of stars from their absolute magnitude and color index values (obtainable from any catalog). However, ... Abdul Muhaymin -Free Palestine's user avatar Abdul Muhaymin -Free Palestine

What would the HR diagram look like if the axes were scaled linearly instead of logarithmically?

The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram typically has its axes scaled logarithmically, and with good reason. The hottest stars are about 20 times as hot as the coldest ones (at least at the surface), and the ... zucculent's user avatar zucculent

Which star has the faintest absolute magnitude (largest magnitude) yet is still visible with the naked eye from Earth (either hemisphere)?

I am thinking about the Bright Star Catalogue and how it is not a good representation of a typical population of stars. The Bright Star Catalogue includes all the visible stars from Earth when viewing ... Astroturf's user avatar Astroturf

Why do blue horizontal branch stars turn downwards on the HR diagram as opposed to red horizontal branch stars which remain fairly constant?

Horizontal branch stars (HB) burn helium at their cores. Red horizontal branch (RHB) stars experience an increase in temperature while their radii decrease so their luminosity remains somewhat ... Astroturf's user avatar Astroturf

What is the wiggle in the AGB branch?

In many HR diagrams, the asymptotic giant branch includes a wiggle. I thought that these are thermal pulses, but now I realise there are many thermal pulses, and I find only one wiggle. The wiggle ... zabop's user avatar zabop

Is a branch on HR diagram a line formed by stars in the same evolutionary phase, or the evolutionary track of an individual star?
