Habitability of the early Earth: Liquid water under a faint young Sun facilitated by strong tidal heating due to a closer Moon

René Heller, Jan-Peter Duda, Max Winkler +2

Geological evidence suggests liquid water near the Earth's surface as early as 4.4 billion years ago when the faint young Sun only radiated about 70% of its modern power output. At…

VLT spectroscopy of NGC3115 globular clusters

Harald Kuntschner, Bodo L. Ziegler, R. M. Sharples +2

We present results derived from VLT-FORS2 spectra of 24 different globular clusters associated with the lenticular galaxy NGC3115. A subsample of 17 globular clusters have sufficie…
