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…
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…
The Blue Straggler population in the globular cluster M53 (NGC5024): a combined HST, LBT, CFHT study
G. Beccari, B. Lanzoni, F. R. Ferraro +24
We used a proper combination of multiband high-resolution and wide field multi-wavelength observations collected at three different telescopes (HST, LBT and CFHT) to probe Blue Str…
The structural properties and star formation history of Leo T from deep LBT photometry
J. T. A. de Jong, J. Harris, M. G. Coleman +15
We present deep, wide-field g and r photometry of the transition type dwarf galaxy Leo T, obtained with the blue arm of the Large Binocular Telescope. The data confirm the presence…
The performance of the blue prime focus Large Binocular Camera at the Large Binocular Telescope
E. Giallongo, R. Ragazzoni, A. Grazian +23
We present the characteristics and some early scientific results of the first instrument at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT), the Large Binocular Camera (LBC). Each LBT telescop…
