The open cluster King~1 in the second quadrant
R. Carrera, L. Rodríguez Espinosa, L. Casamiquela +4
We analyse the poorly-studied open cluster King~1 in the second Galactic quadrant. From wide-field photometry we have studied the spatial distribution of this cluster. We determine…
The Cepheids of NGC1866: A Precise Benchmark for the Extragalactic Distance Scale and Stellar Evolution from Modern UBVI Photometry
I. Musella, M. Marconi, P. B. Stetson +8
We present the analysis of multiband time-series data for a sample of 24 Cepheids in the field of the Large Magellanic Cloud cluster NGC1866. Very accurate BVI VLT photometry is co…
The Carina Project IX: on Hydrogen and helium burning variables
G. Coppola, M. Marconi, P. B. Stetson +14
We present new multi-band (UBVI) time-series data of helium burning variables in the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy. The current sample includes 92 RR Lyrae-six of them are new ide…
Stellar populations in the ELT perspective
G. Bono, V. F. Braga, M. Fabrizio +11
We discuss the impact that the next generation of Extremely Large Telescopes will have on the open astrophysical problems of resolved stellar populations. In particular, we address…
The Discovery of an Ultra-Faint Star Cluster in the Constellation of Ursa Minor
Ricardo R. Munoz, Marla Geha, Patrick Cote +5
We report the discovery of a new ultra-faint globular cluster in the constellation of Ursa Minor, based on stellar photometry from the MegaCam imager at the Canada-France-Hawaii Te…
Sodium-Oxygen anticorrelation among Horizontal Branch Stars in the Globular Cluster M4
A. F Marino, S. Villanova, A. P. Milone +4
The horizontal branch (HB) morphology of globular clusters (GC) is mainly governed by metallicity. The second parameter problem, well known since the 60's, states that metallicity…
