The convective-transition gap in 47 Tucanae with JWST

M. Scalco, L. R. Bedin, M. Libralato +3

We report the detection of the convective-transition gap along the lower main sequence (MS) of the Galactic globular cluster (GC) 47 Tucanae using deep James Webb Space Telescope (…

JWST imaging of omega Centauri -- I. Luminosity and mass functions of its main sequence populations

M. Scalco, R. Gerasimov, L. R. Bedin +10

This paper presents the first study of the most massive globular cluster (GC) in the Milky Way, omega Centauri, employing recently acquired JWST deep images. By combining these dat…

The HST Large Programme on omega Centauri -- VI. The radial gradient of the stellar populations

Michele Scalco, Luigi Bedin, Enrico Vesperini

In this paper we present the analysis of Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the globular cluster Omega Centauri. Our analysis combines data obtained in this work with pre…

First observational evidence of a relation between globular clusters' internal rotation and stellar masses

M. Scalco, A. Livernois, E. Vesperini +3

Several observational studies have shown that many Galactic globular clusters (GCs) are characterised by internal rotation. Theoretical studies of the dynamical evolution of rotati…

The Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters. XXIV. Differences in internal kinematics of multiple stellar populations

M. Libralato, E. Vesperini, A. Bellini +12

Our understanding of the kinematic properties of multiple stellar populations (mPOPs) in Galactic globular clusters (GCs) is still limited compared to what we know about their chem…
