On the gap in horizontal branches at B-V about zero.

CALOI V.

Abstract (from CDS):

It is proposed that the gap observed in the horizontal branch sequence of many globular clusters at B-V about zero is due to a surface phenomenon. Stars on the hotter side of the gap - Teff>10000K - have an atmospheric chemical composition altered as in peculiar A and B stars. The appearance of a convective regime in the surface layers at the temperature and gravity of the gap cancel the peculiarities: it is proposed that the ensuing changes in surface physical conditions give origin to the observed gap.
