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.
Visual binary stars exhibit two subpopulations of spin-orbit alignment divided at 31-38 AU, with close systems tightly aligned (Fisher kappa=48) and wide systems less aligned (kappa=6), consistent with distinct formation pathways.
