First evidence of a collision between two unrelated open clusters in the Milky Way

Andrés E. Piatti, Khyati Malhan

We report the first evidence of an on-going collision between two star clusters in our Galaxy, namely IC 4665 and Collinder 350. These are open clusters located at a distance of ~3…

DECam photometry reveals extra-tidal stars around the Milky Way globular cluster NGC 6864 (M75)

Andrés E. Piatti

Globular clusters are prone to lose stars while moving around the Milky Way. These stars escape the clusters and are distributed throughout extended envelopes or tidal tails. Howev…

Revisiting a detached stellar structure in the outer northeastern region of the Small Magellanic Cloud

Andrés E. Piatti

The outer northeastern region of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is populated by a shell-like overdensity whose nature was recently investigated. We analyzed twenty catalogued sta…

Residual velocities of Small Magellanic Cloud star clusters

Andrés E. Piatti

We analyzed the largest Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) cluster sample (32) with proper motions and radial velocity measurements, from which we obtained their space velocity component…

Globular cluster candidates in the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy

Andrés E. Piatti

Recently, new Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy globular clusters were discovered, which opens the question on the actual size of the Sgr globular cluster population, and therefore on…
