Unveiling the nature of 12 new low-luminosity Galactic Globular Cluster Candidates

E. R. Garro, D. Minniti, B. Alessi +10

The Galactic globular cluster system is incomplete, especially in the low latitude regions of the Galactic bulge and disk. We report the physical characterization of twelve star cl…

New galactic open cluster candidates from DSS and 2MASS imagery

M. Kronberger, P. Teutsch, B. Alessi +9

An inspection of the DSS and 2MASS images of selected Milky Way regions has led to the discovery of 66 stellar groupings whose morphologies, color-magnitude diagrams, and stellar d…

Searching for unknown open clusters in the Tycho-2 catalog

B. S. Alessi, A. Moitinho, W. S. Dias

We present 11 new open cluster candidates found in a systematic search for unknown star clusters using the astrometric and photometric data included in the Tycho2 catalog. The poss…

New catalogue of optically visible open clusters and candidates

W. S. Dias, B. S. Alessi, A. Moitinho +1

We have compiled a new catalogue of open clusters in the Galaxy which updates the previous catalogues of Lynga (1987) and of Mermilliod (1995) (included in the WEBDA database). New…
