Tombaugh 2: The First Open Cluster with a Significant Abundance Spread or Embedded in a Cold Stellar Stream?
P. M. Frinchaboy, A. F. Marino, S. Villanova +3
We present new abundances and radial velocities for stars in the field of the open cluster Tombaugh 2, which has been suggested to be associated with the Galactic Anticenter Stella…
Basic parameters of three star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud: Kron 11, Kron 63 and NGC 121
G. Baume, N. E. D. Noël, E. Costa +3
We present observations for three star clusters, Kron 11, Kron 63 and NGC 121, in the Small Magellanic Cloud. We have studied their structure and derived their fundamental paramete…
The vertical velocity dispersion profile of the Galactic thick disk
C. Moni Bidin, T. M. Girard, G. Carraro +4
We present the results of radial velocity measurements of 770 thick disk red giants toward the South Galactic Pole, vertically distributed from 0.5 kpc to 5 kpc with respect to the…
Search and analysis of blue straggler stars in open clusters
F. De Marchi, F. De Angeli, G. Piotto +2
Aims: This paper presents a new homogeneous catalogue of blue straggler stars (BSS) in Galactic open clusters. Methods: Photometric data for 216 clusters were collected from the li…
New Candidate EHB Stars in the Open Cluster NGC 6791: Looking Locally into the UV-upturn Phenomenon
L. M. Buson, E. Bertone, A. Buzzoni +1
Relying on U,B imagery at the Italian Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG), we report here the discovery of a sample of 13 new UV-bright post-HB candidate stars in the field of the g…
Photometry of dissolving star cluster candidates. The cases of NGC7036 and NGC7772
Giovanni Carraro
We present CCD UBVI observations obtained in the field of the two previously unstudied dissolving open cluster candidates NGC 7036 and NGC 7772. Our analysis suggests that both the…
