Weak Galactic Halo--Fornax dSph Connection from RR Lyrae Stars
G. Fiorentino, M. Monelli, P. B. Stetson +7
For the first time accurate pulsation properties of the ancient variable stars of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) are discussed in the broad context of galaxy formation a…
Astrometry with MCAO: HST-GeMS proper motions in the globular cluster NGC 6681
D. Massari, G. Fiorentino, A. McConnachie +7
Aims: for the first time the astrometric capabilities of the Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) facility GeMS with the GSAOI camera on Gemini-South are tested to quantify the a…
Stellar photometry with Multi Conjugate Adaptive Optics
Giuliana Fiorentino, Davide Massari, Alan McConnachie +14
We overview the current status of photometric analyses of images collected with Multi Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) at 8-10m class telescopes that operated, or are operating, on…
High-precision astrometry towards ELTs
Davide Massari, Giuliana Fiorentino, Eline Tolstoy +13
With the aim of paving the road for future accurate astrometry with MICADO at the European-ELT, we performed an astrometric study using two different but complementary approaches t…
