... 2002 July 30 . A Star Cluster in Motion . ... Explanation: Star clusters are a swarm of complex motions. The stars that compose globular clusters and many open clusters all orbit the cluster center, occasionally interacting, gravitationally, with a close-passing star. ... Cluster stars frequently fall more directly toward the center and many times trace out unusual and complex loops . The vast space inside a cluster results in stars colliding only rarely. ...

... May 3, 1997 . Giant Cluster Bends, Breaks Galaxy Images . ... Explanation : What are those strange blue objects? Many are images of a single, unusual, beaded, blue, ring-like galaxy which just happens to line-up behind a giant cluster of galaxies. ... The distinctive shape of this background galaxy -- which is probably just forming -- has allowed astronomers to deduce that it has separate images at 4, 8, 9 and 10 o'clock, from the center of the cluster. ...

Stellar Clusters are very useful laboratories for empirically studying stellar evolution. ... All cluster stars are at the same distance . All cluster stars have the same physical age . ... CM diagram Young Cluster In this case we see the Main Sequence fully represented. The blue dots represent massive stars with short main sequence lifetimes. ... Thus, identifying the most massive star which is still on the main sequence is an effective means of determining the age of a stellar cluster. ...

An Ancient Universe: How Astronomers Know the Vast Scale of Cosmic Time . THE CHANGING UNIVERSE: EVOLUTION HAPPENS! . b) Changes in Stars . One of the great discoveries of modern science is that stars (like people) live only a measurable life-time and then die. Although the lives of the stars are enormously longer than the span of a human life, we can learn about the life story of the stars by studying them at many different stages in their life cycle, from birth to death. ...

Applied to data of flares on Gliese866 he was able to estimate the area of hydrogen emitting flare regions as 1-13% of the stellar surface. ... As partners in the project, Armagh Observatory has been asked to contribute to the selection process in exchange for priority access to the data which will eventually flow from the satellite. ...
