Abstract

We present new automatic methods of search for star clusters using the data available in new huge stellar catalogues. Using 2MASS catalogue we have discovered over ten new open clusters in the region of Galaxy anticenter and determined their physical parameters.

Oscillation frequencies and mode lifetimes in alpha Centauri A

We analyse our recently-published velocity measurements of alpha Cen A (Butler et al. 2004). After adjusting the weights on a night-by-night basis in order to optimize the window function to minimize sidelobes, we extract 42 oscillation frequencies with l=0 to 3 and measure the large and small frequency separations. We give fitted relations to these frequencies that can be compared with theoretical models and conclude that the observed scatter about these fits is due to the finite lifetimes of the oscillation modes. We estimate the mode lifetimes to be 1-2 d, substantially shorter than in the Sun.

Hipparcos period-luminosity relations for Miras and semiregular variables

We present period-luminosity diagrams for nearby Miras and semiregulars, selecting stars with parallaxes better than 20 per cent and well-determined periods. Using K-band magnitudes, we find two well-defined P-L sequences, one corresponding to the standard Mira P-L relation and the second shifted to shorter periods by a factor of about 1.9. The second sequence only contains semiregular variables, while the Mira sequence contains both Miras and semiregulars. Several semiregular stars show double periods in agreement with both relations. The Whitelock evolutionary track is shown to fit the data, indicating that the semiregulars are Mira progenitors. The transition between the two sequences may correspond to a change in pulsation mode or to a change in the stellar structure. Large amplitude pulsations leading to classical Mira classification occur mainly near the tip of the local AGB luminosity function.

A Cyclical Baryonic Big Bang Explains the Universe

Our universe has multiple examples of unexplained gravitational losses in black holes and neutron stars. The smallest black holes of about 4 solar masses means the maximum baryon density ρ\approx 10^{17} grams/cm^3. Any collapse of the universe will stop with a scale factor \approx 10^{13} cm. and radiation energy \approx 10 GeV. Due to higher squeezed core baryons, the outer part of the mass transferred energy to the core and became dark matter. After contraction reduced particle motion and gravitation, the core radiation energy propelled pieces of the shell into the universe. Each of these masses captured hot core gases according to its gravitational size, forming proto-galaxies. A cold shell and a hot core explain the Planck spectrum and large galaxy formation in the early universe. Thus the universe was never radiation dominant.The universe will remain cyclical as any increase in entropy of matter will be crushed back to neutrons during the contraction phase.
