Age Determination of Six Intermediate-age SMC Star Clusters with HST/ACS
Katharina Glatt, Eva K. Grebel, Elena Sabbi +9
We present a photometric analysis of the star clusters Lindsay 1, Kron 3, NGC339, NGC416, Lindsay 38, and NGC419 in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), observed with the Hubble Space…
Stellar kinematics in the remote Leo II dwarf spheroidal galaxy -- Another brick in the wall
A. Koch, J. T. Kleyna, M. I. Wilkinson +5
We present the projected velocity dispersion profile for the remote (d=233kpc) Galactic dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy Leo II, based on 171 discrete stellar radial velocities that…
Observed Properties of Dark Matter: dynamical studies of dSph galaxies
G Gilmore, M Wilkinson, J Kleyna +4
The Milky Way satellite dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are the smallest dark matter dominated systems in the universe. We have underway dynamical studies of the dSph to quantify…
Further Evidence for a Merger Origin for the Thick Disk: Galactic Stars Along Lines-of-sight to Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies
Rosemary F. G. Wyse, Gerard Gilmore, John E. Norris +5
The history of the Milky Way Galaxy is written in the properties of its stellar populations. Here we analyse stars observed as part of surveys of local dwarf spheroidal galaxies, b…
A calibration map for Wide Field Imager photometry
A. Koch, M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel +1
We present a prescription to correct large-scale intensity variations affecting imaging data taken with the Wide Field Imager (WFI) at the MPG/ESO 2.2 m telescope at the European S…
