A collection of various research projects in astronomy

Majaess, Daniel J. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2008)

We consider the possibility of cluster membership for 13 planetary nebulae that are located in close proximity to open clusters lying in their lines of sight. The short lifetimes and low sample size of intermediate-mass ...
A photometric investigation of the fields of two short-period Cepheids in Cygnus

Mandushev, Georgi Iliev (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 1994)

Photoelectric, photographic and CCD photometry, as well as spectroscopic observations and proper motion data for stars in the fields of the short-period galactic Cepheids V1726 Cygni and SU Cygni are presented and analyzed. ...
A UBV study of the field of NGC 7790

Takala, John Michael (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 1988)

This thesis presents a UBV study of the field of the open cluster NGC 7790, which has three Cepheids within its boundaries. Photographic plates taken at CFHT were measured on an Astromechanics Iris Photometer. The distance ...
A UBV study of the fields surrounding two long-period cepheids and an adjacent open cluster in Carina

Danks, Terence A. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 1987)

In continuation of a search for long-period [P>10d] Cepheids embedded in associations (van den Bergh et al. 1982, 1983, 1984) U, B and V plates centered on the 13.2d Cepheid GT Carinae, and including the Cepheid U Carinae ...
