An old, metal-poor globular cluster in Sextans A and the metallicity floor of globular cluster systems

Michael A. Beasley, Ryan Leaman, Carme Gallart +4

We report the confirmation of an old, metal-poor globular cluster in the nearby dwarf irregular galaxy Sextans A, the first globular cluster known in this galaxy. The cluster, whic…

The Proper Motion of the Large Magellanic Cloud: A Reanalysis

Mario H. Pedreros, Edgardo Costa, Rene A. Mendez

We have determined the proper motion (PM) of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) relative to four background quasi-stellar objects, combining data from two previous studies made by ou…
