Distribution of Bhb-Stars in the Cluster Omega-Centauri and its Effect on the Radial Change in Colour and Ellipticity of the Cluster
Abstract
The authors have studied the radial change in the distribution of giant branch stars and the horizontal branch stars in ω Centauri. They show how the observed change in the distribution is related to the radial change in the colour of the cluster and also the radial change in its ellipticity.
