Radial Distribution of Blue Stragglers in NGC 5466 using AstroSat
  We present the results obtained from Near-UV observations of the cluster NGC
5466 taken with UVIT onboard AstroSat to study the radial distribution of Blue
Straggler Stars (BSSs), covering the cluster region up to a radius of 14$'$.
Our study confirms that the BSSs are more centrally concentrated than
Horizontal Branch (HB) stars in the cluster. We do not find a statistically
significant rising trend in the radial distribution of BSSs for the outer
regions, as most of the previously catalogued BSSs that are located in the
cluster outskirts were found to be non-members, quasars or galaxies. This study
highlights the importance of UV imaging combined with membership information to
probe the radial distribution of BSSs.
