On the distance and reddening of the starburst galaxy IC10

N. Sanna, G. Bono, P. B. Stetson +16

We present deep and accurate optical photometry of the Local Group starburst galaxy IC10. The photometry is based on two sets of images collected with the Advanced Camera for Surve…

Stellar models with the ML2 theory of convection

M. Salaris, S. Cassisi

The mixing length theory (MLT) used to compute the temperature gradient in superadiabatic layers of stellar (interior and atmosphere) models contains in its standard form 4 free pa…

The Puzzling White Dwarf Cooling Sequence in NGC6791: A Simple Solution

L. R. Bedin, M. Salaris, G. Piotto +4

In this paper we demonstrate that the puzzling bright peak in the luminosity function of the white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence of NGC6791 can be naturally accounted for if ~34% of…

The Horizontal Branch of NGC 1851: Constraints on the Cluster Subpopulations

M. Salaris, S. Cassisi, A. Pietrinferni

We investigate the distribution of stars along the Horizontal Branch of the Galactic globular cluster NGC1851, to shed light on the progeny of the two distinct Subgiant Branch popu…

The ACS LCID Project: RR Lyrae stars as tracers of old population gradients in the isolated dwarf spheroidal galaxy Tucana

Edouard J. Bernard, Carme Gallart, Matteo Monelli +9

We present a study of the radial distribution of RR Lyrae variables, which present a range of photometric and pulsational properties, in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Tucana. We find…
