A new histogram-free likelihood method applied to simulated JWST observations of brown dwarfs shows that globular cluster ages can be determined with formal errors under 0.2 Gyr.
Blue straggler stars in old open clusters exhibit a Kraft break in rotation, with rapid rotators above the break and slow rotators below, indicating their envelopes behave like those of single stars.
In nine of 22 globular clusters the most extreme second-population stars are underrepresented on the AGB relative to the RGB, with anomalous stars showing even stronger AGB-manqué signatures.
A cosmological simulation with tidally compressive cluster formation and compact-object heating yields globular cluster populations consistent with observations.
Bi-CFM learns bidirectional mappings between initial and final state distributions to solve ill-posed inverse problems in chaotic systems, reporting metric improvements and speedups on Lorenz variants plus conservation-respecting results on three-body and globular cluster data.
High-resolution zoom-in simulation of a z~10 galaxy produces over 10^5 star clusters with scale-free mass function, 90% of star formation in clusters, global SFE 0.2-0.3, and reproduces JWST super-bright galaxies via feedback-free bursts.
Koposov 2 is an ancient, extremely metal-poor, compact stellar system best explained as a dissolving globular cluster, not a dwarf galaxy.
Blue straggler stars in old open clusters predominantly appear near the terminal-age main sequence because mass transfer from asymptotic giant branch donors enriches their cores with helium.
The Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger occurred 11.2 ± 0.1 Gyr ago, coinciding with the formation of a group of globular clusters and potentially leaving ω Centauri as its remnant, while placing disk formation at z ≳ 4.
Bulge Fossil Fragments are estimated to generate 15-250 times more binary black hole mergers than typical globular clusters, marking them as a new class of gravitational wave sources.
Simulations identify black hole-giant collisions as the main formation channel for ultracompact black hole-white dwarf binaries in globular clusters, with mock catalogs suggesting order-one LISA-detectable sources in the Milky Way.
Binary fractions in elliptical galaxies remain approximately flat with radius once stellar population variations are subtracted, showing less than 5% change at one effective radius for nearly all galaxies studied.
Stacking FAST power spectra reveals six faint isolated millisecond pulsars in NGC 6517 and M15, three of which standard frequency-domain and FFA searches miss.
High-metallicity star cluster simulations produce black hole mergers with masses and ratios consistent with recent LVK detections, unlike low-metallicity models.
The paper reports 21 previously unknown variable stars in M71 along with refined cluster parameters (age 12.9 Gyr, [Fe/H] = -0.88, E(B-V) = 0.21, distance modulus 13.01) from a decontaminated CMD.
Photometric metallicities from DECam identify 213 Jet stream candidates and detect fanning in the stream morphology.
New abundance measurements for NGC 6723 align its chemical patterns with other metal-intermediate globular clusters rather than indicating a transition to metal-rich properties.
SKA-MID and SKA-LOW are predicted to discover 150–1700 new pulsars in Galactic globular clusters, more than doubling the current population of 345.
