Star-crossed Clusters: Asteroseismic Ages for Individual Stars Are in Tension with the Ages of Their Host Clusters by Jamie Tayar, Meridith Joyce

“…A meta-analysis of seismic ages determined for individual stars in the well-studied open and globular clusters NGC 6819, NGC 6791, M67, M4, M19, M80, and M9 reveals both high variance across measurements and a possible discrepancy with independent, isochrone-based age determinations for the clusters in which these stars reside. …”

Exact physical quantities of the D 2 2 $$ {D}_2^{(2)} $$ spin chain model with generic open boundary conditions by Pengcheng Lu, Junpeng Cao, Wen-Li Yang, Ian Marquette, Yao-Zhong Zhang

“…Abstract We study the quantum integrable spin chain model associated with the twisted D 2 2 $$ {D}_2^{(2)} $$ algebra (or simply the D 2 2 $$ {D}_2^{(2)} $$ model) under generic open boundary conditions. The Hamiltonian of this model can be factorized into the sum of two staggered XXZ spin chains. …”
