TASTE. III. A homogeneous study of transit time variations in WASP-3b

V. Nascimbeni, A. Cunial, S. Murabito +10

The TASTE project is searching for low-mass planets with the Transit Timing Variation (TTV) technique, by gathering high-precision, short-cadence light curves for a selected sample…

Spectroscopy of horizontal branch stars in Omega Centauri

C. Moni Bidin, S. Villanova, G. Piotto +3

We analyze the reddening, surface helium abundance and mass of 115 horizontal branch (HB) and blue hook (BH) stars in OmegaCentauri, spanning the HB from the blue edge of the insta…

Hubble Space Telescope reveals multiple Sub-Giant Branch in eight Globular Clusters

G. Piotto, A. P. Milone, J. Anderson +6

In the last few years many globular clusters (GCs) have revealed complex color-magnitude diagrams, with the presence of multiple main sequences (MSs), broaden or multiple sub-giant…

The infrared eye of the Wide-Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope reveals multiple main sequences of very low-mass stars in NGC 2808

A. P. Milone, A. F. Marino, S. Cassisi +9

We use images taken with the infrared channel of the Wide Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to study the multiple main sequences (MSs) of NGC 2808. Below the turn…

An HST search for planets in the lower Main Sequence of the globular cluster NGC 6397

V. Nascimbeni, L. R. Bedin, G. Piotto +2

Searches for planetary transits carried out in open and globular clusters have yielded to date only a handful of weak, unconfirmed candidates. These results have been interpreted e…
