Deriving Metallicities from Calcium Triplet Spectroscopy in combination with Near Infrared Photometry
F. Mauro, C. Moni Bidin, D. Geisler +7
Context. [...] One of the most efficient methods is the measurement of the equivalent width (EW) of the Calcium II Triplet (CaT), corrected for the luminosity and temperature effec…
Investigating potential planetary nebula/cluster pairs
Christian Moni Bidin, Daniel Majaess, Charles Bonatto +10
Fundamental parameters characterizing the end-state of intermediate-mass stars may be constrained by discovering planetary nebulae (PNe) in open clusters (OCs). Cluster membership…
Stellar Variability in the VVV survey
M. Catelan, D. Minniti, P. W. Lucas +34
The Vista Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) ESO Public Survey is an ongoing time-series, near-infrared (IR) survey of the Galactic bulge and an adjacent portion of the inner disk,…
Anchors for the Cosmic Distance Scale: the Cepheids U Sgr, CF Cas and CEab Cas
D. Majaess, G. Carraro, C. Moni Bidin +11
New and existing X-ray, UBVJHKsW(1-4), and spectroscopic observations were analyzed to constrain fundamental parameters for M25, NGC 7790, and dust along their sight-lines. The sta…
OB stars in the Leading Arm of the Magellanic Stream
C. Moni Bidin, D. I. Casetti-Dinescu, R. A. Mendez +4
We present our spectroscopic program aimed to study some new interesting features recently discovered in the Magellanic Cloud System. These were revealed by the spatial distributio…
Spectroscopy of blue horizontal branch stars in NGC 6656 (M22)
C. Salgado, C. Moni Bidin, S. Villanova +2
Recent investigations revealed very peculiar properties of blue horizontal branch (HB) stars in ωCentauri, which show anomalously low surface gravity and mass compared to other clu…
