The obervational features of blue stragglers (BSs) show great differences among the different stellar systems, such as Galactic halo, open clusters, globular clusters, and dwarf galaxies. These differences reveal the distinctive formation of BSs and the physical conditions of the systems and their stellar populations. Therefore, studying the observational properties of BSs could be an effective method for studying the formation mechanisms of BSs, the evolution of single stars and binary systems, and the dynamical evolution of stellar systems.
