RR Lyrae-based Distances for 39 Nearby Dwarf Galaxies Calibrated to Gaia eDR3

TL;DR: In this article , the authors provide uniform RR Lyrae-based distances to 39 dwarf galaxies in and around the Local Group, based on a Bayesian hierarchical model that uses periods and magnitudes of published RR-Lyrae in dwarf galaxies.

Comparison of the Asteroseismic Mass Scale of Red Clump Giants with Photometric Mass Estimates

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a number of widely used horizontal-branch (HB) models in the literature, and derived photometric masses from a comparison with $griBVI_CJHK_s$ photometry.

Evolution of the M31 Disk Population

TL;DR: In this paper, an evolutionary model for the M31 inner disk population is described, which at age 12 billion years agrees closely with the narrow-band colors and line indices recently measured by Spinradet et al.

The structure of late type stars and the Hayashi track

TL;DR: In this article, a topological approach in the HR diagram is given for the occurrence and the characteristics of convective envelopes in population II stars, where the location of the Hayashi track and of the Red Giants branch are both investigated for various assumed masses of the stars and chemical compositions of the convective layers.

Multiple Stellar Populations along the Red Horizontal Branch and Red Clump of Globular Clusters

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors exploit multi-band Hubble Space Telescope photometry to investigate multiple populations (MPs) along the red horizontal branches (HBs) and red clumps of fourteen metal-rich Globular Clusters (GCs), including twelve Milky Way GCs and the Magellanic Cloud GCs NGC 1978 and NGC 416.
