MCAO near-IR photometry of the Globular Cluster NGC 6388: MAD observations in crowded fields
A. Moretti, G. Piotto, C. Arcidiacono +15
Deep photometry of crowded fields, such as Galactic Globular Clusters, is severely limited by the actual resolution of ground-based telescopes. On the other hand, the Hubble Space…
Probing the Galactic Bulge with deep Adaptive Optics imaging: the age of NGC 6440
L. Origlia, S. Lena, E. Diolaiti +4
We present first results of a pilot project aimed at exploiting the potentiality of ground based adaptive optics imaging in the near infrared to determine the age of stellar cluste…
Resolving Stellar Populations outside the Local Group: MAD observations of UKS2323-326
M. Gullieuszik, L. Greggio, E. V. Held +14
We present a study aimed at deriving constraints on star formation at intermediate ages from the evolved stellar populations in the dwarf irregular galaxy UKS2323-326. These observ…
The Blue Straggler population in the globular cluster M53 (NGC5024): a combined HST, LBT, CFHT study
G. Beccari, B. Lanzoni, F. R. Ferraro +24
We used a proper combination of multiband high-resolution and wide field multi-wavelength observations collected at three different telescopes (HST, LBT and CFHT) to probe Blue Str…
The performance of the blue prime focus Large Binocular Camera at the Large Binocular Telescope
E. Giallongo, R. Ragazzoni, A. Grazian +23
We present the characteristics and some early scientific results of the first instrument at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT), the Large Binocular Camera (LBC). Each LBT telescop…
Go Long, Go Deep: Finding Optical Jet Breaks for Swift-Era GRBs with the LBT
X. Dai, P. M. Garnavich, J. L. Prieto +20
Using the 8.4m Large Binocular Telescope, we observed six GRB afterglows from 2.8 hours to 30.8 days after the burst triggers to systematically probe the late time behaviors of aft…
