Tests of Evolutionary Sequences Using Color-Magnitude Diagrams of Globular Clusters

Renzini, Alvio, Pecci, Flavio Fusi·1988·Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics

Abstract

L'adequation et la precision des sequences evolutives stellaires sont d'une grande importance en astrophysique parce que le cadre de leur application est celui de l'âge, des processus de formation et d'evolution des galaxies. Par consequent, il est necessaire de pouvoir tester leur validite et de relier les observables physiques calculees aux quantites observees; les diagrammes couleur-magnitude des amas globulaires sont particulierement interessants pour l'etude des evolutions stellaires

Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Star counts as a proxy for timescales suggest that the data argue against the reality of the breathing pulses.

    “Nevertheless, appealing again to star counts as a proxy for timescales, the data seem to argue against the reality of these pulses (Renzini & Fusi Pecci 1988; Caputo et al. 1989, but see also Campbell et al. 2013).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
