Analysis of the chemical evolution of the Galactic disk via dynamical simulations of the open cluster system

T. E. Tecce, L. J. Pellizza, A. E. Piatti

For several decades now, open clusters have been used to study the structure and chemical evolution of the disk of our Galaxy. Due to the fact that their ages and metallicities can…

Spectral evolution of star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud: I. Blue concentrated clusters in the age range 40-300 Myr

J. F. C. Santos, J. J. Claria, A. V. Ahumada +3

Integrated spectroscopy of a sample of 17 blue concentrated Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) clusters is presented and its spectral evolution studied. The spectra span the range ~3600-…

Integrated spectral analysis of 18 concentrated star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud

A. E. Piatti, J. F. C. Santos, J. J. Claria +3

We present in this study flux-calibrated integrated spectra in the range 3600-6800A for 18 concentrated SMC clusters. Cluster reddening values were estimated by interpolation betwe…

The Line-of-Sight Depth of Populous Clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud

Hugh H. Crowl, Ata Sarajedini, Andres E. Piatti +4

We present an analysis of age, metal abundance, and positional data on populous clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) with the ultimate aim of determining the line-of-sight…

Background galaxies as reddening probes throughout the Magellanic Clouds

C. M. Dutra, E. Bica, J. J. Claria +2

We study the spectral properties in the range 3600 Å- 6800 Åof the nuclear region of galaxies behind the Magellanic Clouds. The radial velocities clarified the nature of the object…

Ages and metallicities of five intermediate-age star clusters projected towards the Small Magellanic Cloud

A. E. Piatti, J. F. C. Santos, J. J. Claria +3

Colour-magnitude diagrams are presented for the first time for L32, L38, K28 (L43), K44 (L68) and L116, which are clusters projected onto the outer parts of the Small Magellanic Cl…
