MCAO near-IR photometry of the Globular Cluster NGC 6388: MAD observations in crowded fields
A. Moretti, G. Piotto, C. Arcidiacono +15
Deep photometry of crowded fields, such as Galactic Globular Clusters, is severely limited by the actual resolution of ground-based telescopes. On the other hand, the Hubble Space…
Observations of Isolated Neutron Stars with the ESO Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics Demonstrator
R. P. Mignani, R. Falomo, A. Moretti +10
High-energy observations have unveiled peculiar classes of isolated neutron stars which, at variance with radio pulsars, are mostly radio silent and not powered by the star rotatio…
On the geometry of broad emission region in quasars
R. Decarli, M. Labita, A. Treves +1
We study the geometry of the Hbeta broad emission region by comparing the M_BH values derived from Hbeta through the virial relation with those obtained from the host galaxy lumino…
Resolving Stellar Populations outside the Local Group: MAD observations of UKS2323-326
M. Gullieuszik, L. Greggio, E. V. Held +14
We present a study aimed at deriving constraints on star formation at intermediate ages from the evolved stellar populations in the dwarf irregular galaxy UKS2323-326. These observ…
Re-classification of the alleged quasar Q0045-3337
R. Decarli, R. Falomo, J. Kotilainen +3
We present a medium-resolution optical spectrum of the alleged high-redshift quasar Q0045-3337, taken at the ESO/3.6m telescope. Our observations show that the object is not a quas…
The NIR to UV continuum of radio loud vs. radio quiet quasars
Marzia Labita, Aldo Treves, Renato Falomo
Starting from a sample of SDSS quasars appearing also in the 2MASS survey, we study the continuum properties of about 1000 objects observed in 8 bands, from NIR to UV. We construct…
