Multiple populations in star clusters

AP Milone, AF Marino - Universe, 2022 - mdpi.com
We review the multiple population (MP) phenomenon of globular clusters (GCs): ie, the
evidence that GCs typically host groups of stars with different elemental abundances and/or …

What is a globular cluster? An observational perspective

R Gratton, A Bragaglia, E Carretta, V D'Orazi… - The Astronomy and …, 2019 - Springer
Globular clusters are large and dense agglomerate of stars. At variance with smaller clusters
of stars, they exhibit signs of some chemical evolution. At least for this reason, they are …
