Eclipsing binaries in open clusters (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Southworth, J., Maxted, P., & Smalley, B. Eclipsing binaries in open clusters

Accurate physical parameters have been determined for two early-type detached eclipsing binaries in the open cluster h Persei (NGC 869). Masses accurate to 1.5% are derived from high-resolution spectroscopy and radii accurate to 4--6% have been obtai... Read More about Eclipsing binaries in open clusters.

Cool stars in NGC 2547 and pre-main-sequence lithium depletion (2003)

We present the results of a spectroscopic survey of X-ray selected, low-mass candidate members of the young open cluster NGC 2547. Using a combination of photometry, spectroscopic indices and radial velocities we refine our candidate list and then us...

The lithium depletion boundary and the age of NGC 2547 (2003)
Journal Article
Oliveira, J., Barrado y Navascues, D., Jeffries, R., Devey, C., Navascues, D., Naylor, T., Stauffer, J., & Totten, E. (2003). The lithium depletion boundary and the age of NGC 2547.

We present the results of a photometric and spectroscopic survey of cool M dwarf candidates in the young open cluster NGC 2547. Using the 2dF fiber spectrograph, we have searched for the luminosity at which lithium remains unburned in an attempt to c... Read More about The lithium depletion boundary and the age of NGC 2547.
