The luminosity function of Palomar 5 and its tidal tails
A. Koch, M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel +2
We present the main sequence luminosity function of the tidally disrupted globular cluster Palomar 5 and its tidal tails. For this work we analyzed imaging data obtained with the W…
The tidal perturbation of the low-mass globular cluster NGC 5466
M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel
The distribution of stars in the outer part of the sparse globular cluster NGC 5466 provides evidence for possible tidal mass loss after a recent disk-shock near the solar circle.
The Extended Tidal Tails of Palomar 5: Tracers of the Galactic Potential
Michael Odenkirchen, Eva K. Grebel, Hans-Walter Rix +4
We detected extended, curved stellar tidal tails emanating from the sparse, disrupting halo globular cluster Pal 5, which cover 10 degrees on the sky. These streams allow us to inf…
Palomar 5 and its tidal tails: New observational results
M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel, W. Dehnen +4
Sloan Digital Sky Survey data for the field of the globular cluster Pal 5 reveal the existence of a long massive stream of tidal debris spanning an arc of 10 degrees on the sky. Pa…
Fundamental properties of the open cluster NGC 2355
C. Soubiran, M. Odenkirchen, J. -F. Le Campion
NGC 2355 is an old open cluster in the outer part of the galactic disk (l=203 deg, b=+11 deg) which has been little studied until now. This paper presents the first astrometric and…
Hot subdwarf stars - galactic orbits and distribution perpendicular to the plane
K. S. de Boer, Y. Aguilar Sanchez, M. Altmann +4
The spatial distribution and the population nature of subdwarf B type stars in the galaxy is investigated based on the kinematics of these stars. The orbits of 41 stars have been c…
