Dissolving star cluster candidates
We present a list of 34 neglected entries from star cluster catalogues located at relatively high galactic latitudes (|b| > 15) which appear to be candidate late stages of star cluster dynamical evolution. Although underpopulated with respect to usual open clusters, they still present a high number density contrast as compared to the galactic field. This was verified by means of (i) predicted m...
متن کاملPhotometry of dissolving star cluster candidates
We present CCD UBVI observations obtained in the field of the two previously unstudied dissolving open cluster candidates NGC 7036 and NGC 7772. Our analysis suggests that both the objects are Open Cluster Remnants (OCR). NGC 7036 is an open cluster remnant with a core radius of about 3-4 arcmin. We derive for the first time estimates of its fundamental parameters. We identify 17 likely members...
متن کاملMetallicity of the young halo globular cluster Ruprecht 106 ?
Medium resolution spectra of 3 stars have been used to determine the metallicity of the globular cluster Ruprecht 106. On the basis of a code developed by Cayrel et al. (1991), we computed a grid of synthetic spectra in order to derive the metallicity of these stars. We found an abundance of [F e/H] = −1.6 ± 0.25 which, although not formally at variance with the estimate of metallicity based on...
متن کاملNegative heat capacity for a cluster of 147 sodium atoms.
There exists a surprising theoretical prediction for a small system: its microcanonical heat capacity can become negative. An increase of energy can-under certain conditions-lead to a lower temperature. Here we present experimental evidence that a cluster containing exactly 147 sodium atoms does indeed have a negative microcanonical heat capacity near its solid to liquid transition.
متن کاملSupernova remnant S 147 and its associated neutron star ( s )
The supernova remnant S 147 harbors the pulsar PSR J 0538+2817 whose characteristic age is more than an order of magnitude greater than the kinematic age of the system (inferred from the angular offset of the pulsar from the geometric center of the supernova remnant and the pulsar proper motion). To reconcile this discrepancy we propose that PSR J 0538+2817 could be the stellar remnant of the f...
