Tracing the Dynamical History of the Globular Cluster 47 Tucanae
Eric Monkman, Alison Sills, Justin Howell +3
We use two stellar populations in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae to trace its dynamical history: blue stragglers and low mass main sequence stars. We assumed that the blue straggl…
Galactic Globular Cluster Relative Ages. II
F. De Angeli, G. Piotto, S. Cassisi +5
We present accurate relative ages for a sample of 55 Galactic globular clusters. The ages have been obtained by measuring the difference between the horizontal branch and the turno…
Relative Frequencies of Blue Stragglers in Galactic Globular Clusters: Constraints for the Formation Mechanisms
Giampaolo Piotto, Francesca De Angeli, Ivan R. King +7
We discuss the main properties of the Galactic globular cluster (GC) blue straggler stars (BSS), as inferred from our new catalog containing nearly 3000 BSS. The catalog has been e…
