We investigate the evolution of metal deficient stellar structures, presenting H-burning isochrones covering cluster ages from 800 Myr to 7 Gyr. Evolutionary evidences for selection effects in the metallicity distribution of very metal poor…
We extend to lower metallicities recent evolutionary computations devoted to Magellanic Clouds stars, presenting and discussing new stellar models with Z=0.0002, 0.0004, 0.0006, 0.001 and suitable assumptions about the original He content.…
We supplement current evolutionary computations concerning Magellanic Cloud stars by exploring the evolutionary behavior of canonical stellar models (i.e.,with inefficient core overshooting) with metallicities suitable for stars in the…
We use new models of stellar population synthesis to estimate the fraction of stars formed during the last major bursts of star formation in E/S0 galaxies in low-redshift clusters ($z\simlt0.4$) from the spectral signatures of…
We present new evolutionary stellar models suitable for old Population I clusters, discussing both the consequences of the most recent improvements in the input physics and the effect of element diffusion within the stellar structures.…
Evolutionary synthesis models for star clusters of various metallicities including gaseous emission during the lifetime of the ionising stars are used to model star cluster systems comprising two populations: an old metal-poor globular…
We present B, V, R, and H alpha photometry of 8 clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud, 5 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, and 3 Galactic clusters, and use 2 color diagrams (2-CDs) to identify candidate Be star populations in these clusters.…
We present synthetic spectra and SEDs computed along evolutionary tracks at Z=1/5 Zsun and Z=1/30 Zsun, for masses between 15 and 150 Msun. We predict that the most massive stars all start their evolution as O2 dwarfs at sub-solar…
We investigate the evolutionary behavior of stellar structures with metallicity Z=0.04 in order to disclose theoretical expectations for both evolutionary and pulsational behaviors of Super-Metal-Rich (SMR) objects, which are found in the…
Combined HST, X-ray, and ground-based optical studies show that clusters of galaxies are largely "in place" by $z \sim 1$, an epoch when the Universe was less than half its present age. High resolution images show that elliptical, S0, and…
We present a large and updated stellar evolution database for low-, intermediate- and high-mass stars in a wide metallicity range, suitable for studying Galactic and extragalactic simple and composite stellar populations using population…
The slow evolution of the M/L ratios, colors, and line strengths of cluster early-type galaxies to z=1 suggests that their stars were formed at very high redshift. At the same time, morphological studies of distant clusters indicate…
Properties of nearby dwarf galaxies are briefly discussed. Dwarf galaxies vary widely in their star formation histories, the ages of their subpopulations, and in their enrichment history. Furthermore, many dwarf galaxies show evidence for…
This paper presents evolutionary computations which investigate the theoretical predictions concerning metal rich RR Lyrae pulsators found both in the Galactic field and in the Galactic bulge. The main aim of this investigation is to…
Spectroscopic redshifts have been measured for 9 K-band luminous galaxies at 1.7 < z < 2.3, selected with Ks < 20 in the "K20 survey" region of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey area. Star formation rates (SFRs) of ~100-500…
Evolutionary population synthesis models for a wide range of metallicities, ages, star formation histories, and Horizontal Branch morphologies, including blue morphologies at high metallicity, are computed. The energetics of the post Main…
A new set of stellar models in the mass range 1.2 to 9 $M_{\odot}$ is presented. The adopted chemical compositions cover the typical galactic values, namely $0.0001 \le Z \le 0.02$ and $0.23 \le Y \le 0.28$. A comparison among the most…
We present a comprehensive theoretical investigation of the evolutionary properties of intermediate-mass stars. The evolutionary sequences were computed from the Zero Age Main Sequence up to the central He exhaustion and often up to the…
Stellar evolution models which include the effect of helium and heavy element diffusion have been calculated for initial iron abundances of [Fe/H] = -2.3, -2.1, -1.9 and -1.7. These models were calculated for a large variety of masses and…
We explore 7.5 billion years of evolution in the star formation activity of massive ($M_{\star}>10^{10.1}\,M_{\odot}$) cluster galaxies using a sample of 25 clusters over $0.15<z<1$ from the Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble…
