Abstract

Recent investigations revealed very peculiar properties of blue horizontal branch (HB) stars in {omega} Centauri, which show anomalously low surface gravity and mass compared to other clusters and to theoretical models. {omega} Centauri, however, is a very unusual object, hosting a complex mix of multiple stellar populations with different metallicity and chemical abundances. We measured the fundamental parameters (temperature, gravity, and surface helium abundance) of a sample of 71 blue HB stars in M 22, with the aim of clarifying if the peculiar results found in {omega} Cen are unique to this cluster. M 22 also hosts multiple sub-populations of stars with a spread in metallicity, analogous to {omega} Cen.
