Extreme Horizontal Branch Stars in Passively Evolving Early Type Galaxies

摘要

We study the effects of including binary star evolution in population synthesis models. We use the Hurley et al. (2002) code to compute binary star evolutionary tracks, and follow the procedure by Han et al. (2002),in particular, the two 2HeWD merger channel, to form EHB stars from a binary pair. We apply the resulting models to study UV excess ETGs.
