Intermediate mass stellar models: Ages of Magellanic Cloud star clusters
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Extract
Ages of six intermediate-age Large Magellanic Cloud star clusters have been estimated using the time dependent behavior of the luminosity of stellar interior models of red giants. All clusters studied, NGC 1783, NGC 1868, NGC 1978, NGC 2121, NGC 2209, and NGC 2231, were found to have ages < 109 yr. It is concluded that there is currently no substantial evidence for a major cluster population of large, populous clusters > 109 yr in the Large Magellanic Cloud.
