Spectroscopy Unveils the Complex Nature of Terzan 5
L. Origlia, R. M. Rich, F. R. Ferraro +6
We present the chemical abundance analysis of 33 red giant stars belonging to the complex stellar system Terzan 5. We confirm the discovery of two stellar populations (Ferraro et a…
Fast rotating Blue Stragglers in the globular cluster M4
L. Lovisi, A. Mucciarelli, F. R. Ferraro +9
We have used high resolution spectra obtained with the spectrograph FLAMES at the ESO Very Large Telescope to determine the kinematical properties and the abundance patterns of 20…
New density profile and structural parameters of the complex stellar system Terzan 5
B. Lanzoni, F. R. Ferraro, E. Dalessandro +9
Terzan 5 is a globular cluster-like stellar system in the Galactic Bulge which has been recently found to harbor two stellar populations with different iron content and probably di…
Two distinct sequences of blue straggler stars in the globular cluster M30
F. R. Ferraro, G. Beccari, E. Dalessandro +7
Stars in globular clusters are generally believed to have all formed at the same time, early in the Galaxy's history. 'Blue stragglers' are stars massive enough that they should ha…
