A carbon-rich Mira variable in a globular cluster: a stellar merger.

FEAST M.W., MENZIES J.W. and WHITELOCK P.A.

Abstract (from CDS):

The membership of Matsunaga's variable 1, a carbon-rich, mass-losing, Mira variable, in the globular cluster Lynga 7 is discussed on the basis of radial velocities. We conclude that it is a member, the first known C-Mira in a globular cluster. Since such a variable is expected to have an age of ∼ 1-2 Gyr and an initial mass of ∼ 1.5M☉, we conclude that this star must be the product of a stellar merger.
