HRI observations of the Local Group galaxies IC 10 , NGC 147 and NGC 185
We report on pointed X-ray observations of IC 10, NGC 147 and NGC 185 made with the ROSAT High Resolution Imager (HRI). These are three Local Group galaxies that have never been previously studied in detail in the X-ray regime. IC 10 is the closest starburst galaxy to our own Galaxy, and NGC 147 and NGC 185 are companions to M31. We have discovered a variable X-ray source coincident with IC 10....
متن کاملAges , metallicities , and [ α / Fe ] ratios of globular clusters in NGC 147 , NGC 185 , and NGC 205
We present measurements of ages, metallicities, and [α/Fe] ratios for 16 globular clusters (GC) in NGC 147, NGC 185, and NGC 205 and of the central regions of the diffuse galaxy light in NGC 185, and NGC 205. Our results are based on spectra obtained with the SCORPIO multi-slit spectrograph at the 6-m telescope of the Russian Academy of Sciences. We include in our analysis high-quality HST/WFPC...
متن کاملLong Period Variables in NGC 5128 : II . Near - IR properties ⋆
Long Period Variable stars are ubiquitous among the bright red giant branch stars in NGC 5128. Mostly they are found to be brighter than the tip of the first ascent giant branch with magnitudes ranging from about K = 19 to K = 21.5. They have periods between 155 and 1000 days and K-band amplitudes between 0.1 and 2 mag, characteristic of semi-regular and Mira variables. We compare the colors, p...
متن کاملLong Period Variables in NGC 5128 : I . Catalogue ⋆ ⋆
The first variable star catalogue in a giant elliptical galaxy NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) is presented. Using multi-epoch observations with ISAAC at the VLT we have detected 1504 red variables in two halo fields covering 10.46 arcmin square. For the variables with at least 10 good measurements, periods and amplitudes were determined using Fourier analysis and non-linear sine-curve fitting algorithm...
متن کاملThe period - luminosity relation of Mira variables in NGC 6388 and NGC 6441
We report a result of our near-infrared repeated observations of Mira variables in the globular clusters NGC 6388 and 6441. These two clusters are known as peculiar clusters with blue horizontal branch stars and RR Lyr variables which are unexpected for their relatively high metallicities. We derive their distance moduli by fitting the Mira variables in the period-luminosity relation. This is t...
