The dual nature of the tidal tails of NGC 5904 (M5)

Andrés E. Piatti

The tangential velocity dispersion of stars belonging to the Milky Way globular cluster's tidal tails has recently been found from N-body simulations to be a parameter that disting…

The Origin of the Large Magellanic Cloud Globular Cluster NGC 2005

Andrés E. Piatti, Yutaka Hirai

The ancient Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) globular cluster NGC 2005 has recently been reported to have an ex-situ origin, thus, setting precedents that the LMC could have partially…

Catching a Milky Way open cluster in its last breath

Andrés E. Piatti

Theoretical models have suggested peculiar velocity dispersion profiles of star clusters facing dissolution. They predicted that, besides bound stars that still belong to the star…

Assessing the physical reality of Milky Way open cluster candidates

A. E. Piatti, D. M. F. Illesca, A. A. Massara +4

We report results on the analysis of eleven new Milky Way open cluster candidates, recently discovered from the detection of stellar overdensities in the Vector Point diagram, by e…

First evidence of a stripped star cluster from the Small Magellanic Cloud

Andrés E. Piatti, Scott Lucchini

We present results on the recently discovered stellar system YMCA-1, for which physical nature and belonging to any of the Magellanic System galaxies have been irresolutely analyze…

A genuine Large Magellanic Cloud age gap star cluster

Andrés E. Piatti

We confirm the existence of a second Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) star cluster, KMHK 1592, with an age that falls in the middle of the so-called LMC star cluster age gap, a long pe…
