The star formation history of Eridanus II: on the role of SNe feedback in the quenching of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies
C. Gallart, M. Monelli, T. Ruiz-Lara +17
Eridanus II (EriII) is an ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxy (M_V=-7.1) located at a distance close to the Milky Way virial radius. Early shallow color-magnitude diagrams (CMD) indicat…
The ACS LCID project VII: the blue stragglers population in the isolated dSph galaxies Cetus and Tucana
M. Monelli, S. Cassisi, M. Mapelli +8
We present the first investigation of the Blue Straggler star (BSS) population in two isolated dwarf spheroidal galaxies of the Local Group, Cetus and Tucana. Deep HST/ACS photomet…
The ACS LCID project. VI. The SFH of the Tucana dSph and the relative ages of the isolated dSph galaxies
M. Monelli, C. Gallart, S. L. Hidalgo +10
We present a detailed study of the star formation history (SFH) of the Tucana dwarf spheroidal galaxy. High quality, deep HST/ACS data, allowed us to obtain the deepest color-magni…
The ACS LCID project. III. The star formation history of the Cetus dSph galaxy: a post-reionization fossil
M. Monelli, S. L Hidalgo, P. B. Stetson +12
We use deep HST/ACS observations to calculate the star formation history (SFH) of the Cetus dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy. Our photometry reaches below the oldest main sequence tu…
Short-Period Variables in the Local Group Dwarf Galaxies Tucana and LGS3
E. J. Bernard, M. Monelli, C. Gallart +16
We present preliminary results concerning the search for short-period variable stars in Tucana and LGS3 based on very deep HST/ACS imaging. In the fraction of the observed field we…
