First deep search of tidal tails in the Milky Way globular cluster NGC 6362
Andrés E. Piatti
I present results of the analysis of a set of images obtained in the field of the Milky Way globular cluster NGC 6362 using the Dark Energy Camera, which is mounted in the 4.0m Vic…
An in-depth view of the metallicity distribution of the Small Magellanic Cloud
Andrés E. Piatti
The spatial metallicity distribution of star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) has recently been found to correlate as a V-shaped function with the semi-major axis of an…
Revisiting the old end of the Milky Way open cluster age function
Andrés E. Piatti
The age distribution of the open cluster system is a key piece of information to decipher the star formation history of the Milky Way disk. Recently, a remarkable earlier drop of i…
The dual nature of the tidal tails of NGC 5904 (M5)
Andrés E. Piatti
The tangential velocity dispersion of stars belonging to the Milky Way globular cluster's tidal tails has recently been found from N-body simulations to be a parameter that disting…
The Origin of the Large Magellanic Cloud Globular Cluster NGC 2005
Andrés E. Piatti, Yutaka Hirai
The ancient Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) globular cluster NGC 2005 has recently been reported to have an ex-situ origin, thus, setting precedents that the LMC could have partially…
Catching a Milky Way open cluster in its last breath
Andrés E. Piatti
Theoretical models have suggested peculiar velocity dispersion profiles of star clusters facing dissolution. They predicted that, besides bound stars that still belong to the star…
