Descripción
A search for binaries among 17 blue stragglers in five galactic clusters, NGC 7789, 6633, 6819, 6939, and M 67, has been performed using measurements of radial velocity variations. The spectra were obtained with the Intermediate Dispersion Spectrograph attached to the f/15 Cassegrain focus of the 2.5 m Isaac Newton Telescope at the Spanish Observatory of the Roque de los Muchachos. The wavelength coverage was 200 A, centered at 8510 A with a scale of 12.4 km/sec per pixel. All radial velocity determinations were made using cross-correlation techniques. A velocity resolution of about 3 km/sec/pixel was obtained for the standard radial velocity stars and the brighter program stars. For three of the blue stragglers variations in radial velocity greater than 30 km/sec are reported.

    Massive characterisation of subgiants and red giants with TESS (Kepler and Gaia)
    TESS serves as a formidable tool for investigating stellar variability. Nonetheless, the adaptation of methodologies employed in other space missions, such as Kepler, to deduce long stellar rotation periods or solar-like stellar pulsations has been a challenge. The advent of multiple sectors of data for most stars every two years with the extended

    Asteroseismic grid-modelling of the binary system KIC 9163796
    The age of a star cannot be measured but only inferred from observational quantities related to age. For stars in the red-giant phase, classical methods such as isochrone fitting can deliver ages with statistical uncertainties between 30% and 50%. Asteroseismic modelling is known to provide the most precise ages for red giants to date. Furthermore

    Measuring stellar long surface rotation periods by combining multi-sector/cycle long-cadence data from TESS
    The evolution of surface magnetic features on stars, such as spots and faculae, produces modulations in light curves. These modulations allow us to measure the surface rotation period, P_rot, of stars from the main sequence (e.g., McQuillan et al. 2014; Santos et al. 2019, 2021) to the red-giant (Ceillier et al. 2017) phase. Nevertheless, the
