Ages, Metallicities, and [alpha/Fe] ratios of globular clusters in NGC 147, NGC 185, and NGC 205

M. E. Sharina, V. L. Afanasiev, T. H. Puzia

We present measurements of ages, metallicities, and [alpha/Fe] ratios for 16 globular clusters (GC) in NGC 147, NGC 185, and NGC 205 and of the central regions of the diffuse galax…

A Database of 2MASS Near-Infrared Colors of Magellanic Cloud Star Clusters

Peter M. Pessev, Paul Goudfrooij, Thomas H. Puzia +1

The (rest-frame) near-IR domain contains important stellar population diagnostics and is often used to estimate masses of galaxies at low as well as high redshifts. However, many s…

A Genuine Intermediate-Age Globular Cluster in M33

Rupali Chandar, Thomas H. Puzia, Ata Sarajedini +1

We present deep integrated-light spectroscopy of nine M33 globular clusters taken with the Hectospec instrument at the MMT Observatory. Based on our spectroscopy and previous deep…

Extremely alpha-Enriched Globular Clusters in Early-Type Galaxies: A Step towards the Dawn of Stellar Populations?

Thomas H. Puzia, Markus Kissler-Patig, Paul Goudfrooij

We compare [alpha/Fe], metallicity, and age distributions of globular clusters in elliptical, lenticular, and spiral galaxies, which we derive from Lick line index measurements. We…

The old globular cluster system of the dIrr galaxy NGC1427A in the Fornax cluster

Iskren Y. Georgiev, Michael Hilker, Thomas H. Puzia +5

We present a study of the old globular cluster (GC) population of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 1427A using multi-wavelength VLT observations in U, B, V, I, H_alpha, J, H, and Ks…
