On a new Near-Infrared method to estimate the absolute ages of star clusters: NGC3201 as a first test case
G. Bono, P. B. Stetson, D. A. VandenBerg +24
We present a new method to estimate the absolute ages of stellar systems. This method is based on the difference in magnitude between the main sequence turn-off (MSTO) and a well d…
Uncertainties on the theoretical predictions for classical Cepheid pulsational quantities
G. Valle, M. Marconi, S. Degl'Innocenti +1
The expected distribution of Cepheids within the instability strip is affected by several model inputs, reflecting upon the predicted Period-Luminosity relation. On the basis of ne…
Stromgren photometry of Galactic Globular Clusters. II Metallicity distribution of red giants in Omega Centauri
A. Calamida, G. Bono, P. B. Stetson +23
We present new intermediate-band Stroemgren photometry based on more than 300 u,v,b,y images of the Galactic globular cluster Omega Cen. Optical data were supplemented with new mul…
Very low mass white dwarfs with a C-O core
P. G. Prada Moroni, O. Straniero
The lower limit for the mass of white dwarfs (WDs) with C-O core is commonly assumed to be roughly 0.5 Msun. As a consequence, WDs of lower masses are usually identified as He-core…
Star formation history in the SMC: the case of NGC602
M. Cignoni, E. Sabbi, A. Nota +9
Deep HST/ACS photometry of the young cluster NGC 602, located in the remote low density "wing" of the Small Magellanic Cloud, reveals numerous pre-main sequence stars as well as yo…
