Globular 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 ...
متن کاملVariable Stars in the Field of the Globular Cluster Ngc
We report on the discovery and analysis of 14 short-period variable stars in the field of the southern globular cluster NGC 3201, located within roughly two magnitudes on either side of the main-sequence turnoff. 11 of these variable stars are eclipsing binaries, one is an RR Lyrae, and two are thus far unclassified systems. Among the eclipsing binary stars, nine are of the W Ursa Majoris (W UM...
متن کاملThe globular cluster NGC 1978 in the Large Magellanic Cloud
We have used deep high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope ACS observations to image the cluster NGC 1978 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. This high-quality photometric data set allowed us to confirm the high ellipticity (ǫ ∼0.30±0.02) of this stellar system. The derived Color Magnitude Diagram allowed a detailed study of the main evolutionary sequences: in particular we have detected the so called...
متن کاملThe field population towards the globular cluster NGC 6553
We analyze the colour magnitude diagram of the field population in the direction of the bulge cluster NGC 6553 to discuss the stellar field component projected towards the cluster. In particular we investigate the nature of a peculiar feature, called “red flare” which appears as a faint turnoff, located 2 magnitudes about below the turnoff of the cluster, with a sparse trace of a sub-giant bran...
