Rotation, activity and lithium in NGC 6475 (1997)
Journal Article
James, D. J., & Jeffries, R. D. (1997). Rotation, activity and lithium in NGC 6475. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 292(2), 252–272. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/292.2.252

Radial and rotational velocities, chromospheric activity and lithium abundances are presented for an X-ray-selected sample of stars in the young (220 Myr) open cluster NGC 6475. Low-mass members of the cluster have been identified on the basis of pho... Read More about Rotation, activity and lithium in NGC 6475.

On the initial-final mass relation and maximum mass of white dwarf progenitors (1997)
Journal Article
Jeffries, R. (1997). On the initial-final mass relation and maximum mass of white dwarf progenitors. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 288(3), 585–588. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/288.3.585

The four white dwarfs (WDs) discovered in the young open cluster NGC 2516 are crucial in defining the shape of the initial-final mass relation (IFMR) and upper mass limit for WD progenitors (Mwd). The cluster metallicity has been recently determined... Read More about On the initial-final mass relation and maximum mass of white dwarf progenitors.
