Blue Straggler Stars

Authors: Clark M. Thomas

Blue straggler stars within globular clusters are anapparent anomaly. Spherical clusters are typicallyamong the oldest visible objects in our Milky Way,often in the 12-billion-years age range. The birthand aging of individual stars generally follows aformula beginning with clouds of galactic dustcollapsing within regions where local gravityprogressively supersedes random motion of dustparticles. New blue straggler stars form inside a"gravity sphere" where there is very little dust.This essay will explore which type of gravity bestexplains the presence of these blue anomalies.
