Search for Very Metal Poor Blue Stragglers

An objective prism survey has provided a list of extremely metal poor stars. Some of these are in the correct color range to be delta Scuti variables. We are searching for any light variations from these stars in the hopes of finding a number of field blue stragglers.


Skills and Experience Required

None listed.
