II . NGC 1818 and its neighbouring cluster in the LMC ?
As part of an ongoing photometric survey of young Magellanic Cloud clusters we identiied Be stars in NGC 1818 and a nearby smaller cluster in the Large Mag-ellanic Cloud. The neighbouring cluster does not appear to contain any evolved stars, and its sparsely populated main sequence does not extend to stars as massive as in NGC 1818. Both clusters are younger than the surrounding eld population,...
متن کاملNGC 2298: a globular cluster on its way to disruption
We have studied the stellar main sequence (MS) of the globular cluster NGC 2298 using deep HST/ACS observations in the F606W and F814W bands covering an area of 3.4 × 3.4 around the cluster centre or about twice the cluster’s half-mass radius. The colourmagnitude diagram that we derive in this way reveals a narrow and well defined MS extending down to the 10σ detection limit at m606 ≃ 26.5, m81...

متن کاملGlobular Cluster Metallicity Subpopulations in NGC 4472
Bimodality is a common feature of globular cluster (GC) color distributions in galaxies. Although it is well known that the GC system of the Milky Way is bimodal in metallicity, this has yet to be directly demonstrated for an elliptical galaxy. We use Lick index measurements from the literature to derive metallicities for 47 GCs in the giant Virgo elliptical galaxy NGC 4472. The resulting distr...
متن کاملGlobular Cluster Candidates in NGC 891 1
We use deep images taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on board the Hubble Space Telescope of the disk galaxy NGC 891, to search for globular cluster candidates. This galaxy has long been considered to be a close analog in size and structure to the Milky Way and is nearly edge-on, facilitating studies of its halo population. These extraplanar ACS images, originally intended to study the ...
