Unresolved triples in the open cluster NGC 2437 (M 46) confirmed by the KMOS VVVX-GalCen Spectroscopic Survey

D. Minniti, T. Palma, C. O. Obasi +31

Recent optical and near-IR photometric databases like Gaia data release 3 (DR3) and the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea eXtended (VVVX) ESO public survey allow the exploration of…

A Newly Discovered VVVX Star Cluster Surfing the Galactic Disk

Elisa R. Garro, José G. Fernández-Trincado, Casmir O. Obasi +15

We report the discovery of Garro 04, a previously unidentified stellar cluster toward the Galactic disc, uncovered as part of the ESO/KMOS VVVX-GalCen Spectroscopic Survey. This ob…

Unresolved triple systems in the aged open cluster Trumpler 19: Discovery, confirmation, and implications

D. Minniti, R. K. Saito, V. D. Ivanov +31

It is difficult to identify unresolved triple and higher-order systems beyond the solar vicinity. Star clusters yield controlled environments with known physical parameters, provid…

Kinematical and dynamical properties of recently discovered bulge and disc star clusters with WINERED

Ilaria Petralia, Dante Minniti, José G. Fernández-Trincado +8

Context. Galactic globular clusters are a very important tool in explaining the characteristics of the Milky Way. Therefore it is essential to determine the kinematical and dynamic…

The VISCACHA Survey: XIII. The extended main-sequence turn-off in intermediate-age low-mass clusters

Stefano Souza, Angeles Pérez-Villegas, Bruno Dias +16

The extended main-sequence turn-off (eMSTO) is a well-known feature observed in young and intermediate-age star clusters, characterized by a significant broadening of the main-sequ…

Shape of the outer stellar warp in the Large Magellanic Cloud disk

S. Saroon, S. Subramanian

Warps are vertical distortions of the stellar or gaseous disks of galaxies. One of the proposed scenarios for the formation of warps involves tidal interactions among galaxies. A r…
