On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes. III. The -element abundances
J. Crestani, V. F. Braga, M. Fabrizio +33
We provide the largest and most homogeneous sample of -element (Mg, Ca, Ti) and iron abundances for field RR Lyrae (RRLs, 162 variables) by using high-resolution spectra. The cu…
On a new method to estimate distance, reddening and metallicity of RR Lyrae stars using optical/near-infrared (,,,,,) mean magnitudes: Centauri as a first test case
G. Bono, G. Iannicola, V. F. Braga +26
We developed a new approach to provide accurate estimates of metal content, reddening and true distance modulus of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs). The method is based on homogeneous optical…
The ESO Multi-Instrument Kinematic Survey (MIKiS) of Galactic Globular Clusters: solid body rotation and anomalous velocity dispersion profile in NGC 5986
B. Lanzoni, F. R. Ferraro, A. Mucciarelli +11
As part of the ESO-VLT Multi-Instrument Kinematic Survey (MIKiS) of Galactic globular clusters, we present a detailed investigation of the internal kinematics of NGC 5986. The anal…
On the RR Lyrae stars in globulars: IV. Centauri Optical UBVRI Photometry
V. F. Braga, P. B. Stetson, G. Bono +31
New accurate and homogeneous optical UBVRI photometry has been obtained for variable stars in the Galactic globular Cen (NGC 5139). We secured 8202 CCD images covering a time i…
Comparing the properties of the X-shaped bulges of NGC 4710 and the Milky Way with MUSE
O. A. Gonzalez, D. A. Gadotti, V. P. Debattista +6
We used the new ESO VLT instrument MUSE to obtain spectral and imaging coverage of NGC 4710. The wide area and excellent sampling of the MUSE integral field spectrograph allows us…
