Globular cluster candidates within the Fornax Cluster: intracluster globulars?

L. P. Bassino, S. A. Cellone, J. C. Forte +1

We present the results of a search for globular clusters in the surroundings of 15 low surface brightness dwarf galaxies belonging to the Fornax Cluster, which was carried out on C…

Double-periodic blue variables in the Magellanic Clouds

R. E. Mennickent, G. Pietrzynski, M. Diaz +1

We report the discovery, based on an inspection of the OGLE-II database, of a group of blue variables in the Magellanic Clouds showing simultaneously two kinds of photometric varia…

Local galaxy flows within 5 Mpc

I. D. Karachentsev, D. I. Makarov, M. E. Sharina +8

We present Hubble Space Telescope/WFPC2 images of sixteen dwarf galaxies as part of our snapshot survey of nearby galaxy candidates. We derive their distances from the luminosity o…

Self--dual Lorentzian wormholes in n--dimensional Einstein gravity

M. Cataldo, P. Salgado, P. Minning

A family of spherically symmetric, static and self--dual Lorentzian wormholes is obtained in n--dimensional Einstein gravity. This class of solutions includes the n--dimensional ve…

The Chemistry of Extragalactic Globular Clusters

M. Kissler-Patig, T. H. Puzia, R. Bender +6

We present preliminary results of VLT/FORS spectroscopy of globular clusters in nearby early-type galaxies. Our project aims at studying the chemistry and determine the ages of glo…

Galaxy Flow in the Canes Venatici I Cloud

I. D. Karachentsev, M. E. Sharina, A. E. Dolphin +7

We present an analysis of Hubble Space Telescope/WFPC2 images of eighteen galaxies in the Canes Venatici I cloud. We derive their distances from the luminosity of the tip of the re…
