A DECam View of the Diffuse Dwarf Galaxy Crater II: Variable Stars

A. Katherina Vivas, Alistair R. Walker, Clara E. Martínez-Vázquez +11

Time series observations of a single dithered field centered on the diffuse dwarf satellite galaxy Crater II were obtained with the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) at the 4m Blanco Tele…

A DECam View of the Diffuse Dwarf Galaxy Crater II: The Colour-Magnitude Diagram

A. R. Walker, C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, M. Monelli +12

We present a deep Blanco/DECam colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) for the large but very diffuse Milky Way satellite dwarf galaxy Crater II. The CMD shows only old stars with a clearly…

On the use of field RR Lyrae as Galactic probes: I. The Oosterhoff dichotomy based on fundamental variables

M. Fabrizio, G. Bono, V. F. Braga +21

We collected a large data set of field RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) by using catalogues already available in the literature and Gaia DR2. We estimated the iron abundances for a sub-sample…

Chemical Compositions of Field and Globular Cluster RR~Lyrae Stars: II. omega Centauri

D. Magurno, C. Sneden, G. Bono +21

We present a detailed spectroscopic analysis of RR Lyrae (RRL) variables in the globular cluster NGC 5139 (omega Cen). We collected optical (4580-5330 A), high resolution (R = 34,0…
