Unveiling Bifurcated Blue Straggler Sequences in NGC 2173: Insights from Binary Evolution

Identifying bifurcated blue straggler (BS) sequences in color–magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of star clusters has long been regarded as a powerful diagnostic for distinguishing different BS formation mechanisms. While such bifurcations are typically associated with core-collapsed clusters, their detectio...
