Chemical evolution with rotating massive star yields II. A new assessment of the solar s- and r- process components

N. Prantzos, C. Abia, S. Cristallo +2

The decomposition of the Solar system abundances of heavy isotopes into their s- and r- components plays a key role in our understanding of the corresponding nuclear processes and…

A DECam View of the Diffuse Dwarf Galaxy Crater II: The Colour-Magnitude Diagram

A. R. Walker, C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, M. Monelli +12

We present a deep Blanco/DECam colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) for the large but very diffuse Milky Way satellite dwarf galaxy Crater II. The CMD shows only old stars with a clearly…

Another relic bulge globular cluster: ESO 456-SC38 (Djorgovski~2)

S. Ortolani, E. V. Held, D. Nardiello +7

The object ESO456-SC38 (Djorgovski 2) is one of the globular clusters that is closest to the Galactic center. It is on the blue horizontal branch and has a moderate metallicity of…

The star formation history of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Margherita Bettinelli, Sebastián L. Hidalgo, Santi Cassisi +4

We present the star formation history (SFH) of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy based on deep g,r photometry taken with DECam at the Blanco telescope, focusing our analysis on…

The Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) with VST. VI. Optical properties of the dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster

Aku Venhola, Reynier Peletier, Eija Laurikainen +18

The Fornax Deep Survey Dwarf galaxy Catalog (FDSDC) includes 564 dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster and the in-falling Fornax A subgroup. We use the FDSDC galaxies for statistica…

A panchromatic view of the bulge globular cluster NGC 6569

S. Saracino, E. Dalessandro, F. R. Ferraro +12

We used high-resolution optical HST/WFC3 and multi-conjugate adaptive optics assisted GEMINI GeMS/GSAOI observations in the near-infrared to investigate the physical properties of…
