Star density profiles of six old star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud
B. Lanzoni, F. R. Ferraro, E. Dalessandro +7
We used resolved star counts from Hubble Space Telescope images to determine the center of gravity and the projected density profiles of 6 old globular clusters in the Large Magell…
An Extragalactic Chromosome Map: The intermediate age SMC Cluster Lindsay 1
S. Saracino, N. Bastian, V. Kozhurina-Platais +8
The discovery of star-to-star abundance variations (a.k.a. multiple populations - MPs) within globular clusters (GCs), which are generally not found in the field or in lower mass o…
Size diversity of old Large Magellanic Cloud clusters as determined by internal dynamical evolution
F. R. Ferraro, B. Lanzoni, E. Dalessandro +6
The distribution of size as a function of age observed for star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is very puzzling: young clusters are all compact, while the oldest syst…
Stellar population astrophysics (SPA) with the TNG. GIANO-B spectroscopy of red supergiants in Alicante 7 and Alicante 10
L. Origlia, E. Dalessandro, N. Sanna +6
The Scutum complex in the inner disk of the Galaxy hosts a number of young clusters and associations of red supergiant stars that are heavily obscured by dust extinction. These sta…
Detection of multiple stellar populations in extragalactic massive clusters with JWST
M. Salaris, S. Cassisi, A. Mucciarelli +1
The discovery both through spectroscopy and photometry of multiple stellar populations in Galactic globular clusters, and in Magellanic Clouds' massive intermediate-age and old clu…
The search for multiple populations in Magellanic Clouds clusters - V. Correlation between cluster age and abundance spreads
S. Martocchia, E. Dalessandro, C. Lardo +14
In our HST photometric survey, we have been searching for multiple stellar populations (MPs) in Magellanic Clouds (MCs) massive star clusters which span a significant range of ages…
Spectral Energy Distribution of Blue Stragglers in the core of 47 Tucanae
S. Raso, C. Pallanca, F. R. Ferraro +8
We have constructed the Spectral Energy Distributions (SEDs) of a sample of Blue Straggler Stars (BSSs) in the core of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae, taking advantage of the larg…
Stellar 3-D kinematics in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy
Davide Massari, Amina Helmi, Alessio Mucciarelli +3
Aims. We present the first three-dimensional internal motions for individual stars in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Methods. By combining first-epoch $Telesco…
Constant light element abundances suggest that the extended P1 in NGC 2808 is not a consequence of CNO-cycle nucleosynthesis
I. Cabrera-Ziri, C. Lardo, A. Mucciarelli
Recent photometric results have identified a new population among globular cluster stars. This population, referred to as the ``extended P1'', has been suggested to be the manifest…
Spectroscopic detection of multiple populations in the ~2 Gyr old cluster Hodge 6 in the LMC
K. Hollyhead, S. Martocchia, C. Lardo +8
We report the spectroscopic discovery of abundance spreads (i.e. multiple populations) in the ~2 Gyr old cluster in the LMC, Hodge 6. We use low resolution VLT FORS2 spectra of 15…
