Dynamical age differences among coeval star clusters as revealed by blue stragglers
F. R. Ferraro, B. Lanzoni, E. Dalessandro +11
Globular star clusters that formed at the same cosmic time may have evolved rather differently from a dynamical point of view (because that evolution depends on the internal enviro…
The Green Bank Telescope HII Region Discovery Survey: III. Kinematic Distances
L. D. Anderson, T. M. Bania, Dana S. Balser +1
Using the HI Emission/Absorption method, we resolve the kinematic distance ambiguity and derive distances for 149 of 182 (82%) HII regions discovered by the Green Bank Telescope HI…
UV Properties of Galactic Globular Clusters with GALEX I. The Color-Magnitude Diagrams
Ricardo P. Schiavon, Emanuele Dalessandro, Sangmo T. Sohn +10
We present GALEX data for 44 Galactic globular clusters obtained during 3 GALEX observing cycles between 2004 and 2008. This is the largest homogeneous data set on the UV photometr…
The Unimodal Distribution Of Blue Straggler Stars in M75 (NGC 6864)
R. Contreras Ramos, F. R. Ferraro, E. Dalessandro +2
We have used a combination of multiband high-resolution and wide-field ground-based observations to image the Galactic globular cluster M75 (NGC 6864). The extensive photometric sa…
The non-segregated population of blue straggler stars in the remote globular cluster Palomar 14
Giacomo Beccari, Antonio Sollima, Francesco R. Ferraro +5
We used deep wide-field observations obtained with the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope to study the blue straggler star (BSS) population in the innermost five arcminutes of the remo…
HII Region Metallicity Distribution in the Milky Way Disk
Dana S. Balser, Robert T. Rood, T. M. Bania +1
The distribution of metals in the Galaxy provides important information about galaxy formation and evolution. HII regions are the most luminous objects in the Milky Way at mid-infr…
