    Chatterjee, S; Kumar, B; Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of India, 2002-12)
    Dynamical evolution of stellar mass distribution in star clusters is analysed by considering simultaneously the effects of dynamical friction, stochastic heating and the gravitational potential due to mass distribution ...
  • On the determination of age and mass functions of stars in young open star clusters from the analysis of their luminosity functions 
    Piskunov, A. E; Belikov, A. N; Sagar, R; Subramaniam, A (Royal Astronomical Society, 2004-04-21)
    We construct the observed luminosity functions of the remote young open clusters NGC 2383, 2384, 4103, 4755, 7510 and Hogg 15 from CCD observations of them. The observed LFs are corrected for field star contamination ...
  • On the Photometric Error Calibration for the Differential Light Curves of Point-like Active Galactic Nuclei 
    Goyal, Arti; Mhaskey, Mukul; Gopal-Krishna; Witta, P. J; Stalin, C. S; Sagar, R (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2013-09)
    It is important to quantify the underestimation of rms photometric errors returned by the commonly used APPHOT algorithm in the IRAF software, in the context of differential photometry of point-like AGN, because of the ...
  • The optical afterglow of the not so dark GRB 021211
