Characterization of the velocity anisotropy of accreted globular clusters
Paolo Bianchini, Alison Sills, Meghan Miholics
Galactic globular clusters (GCs) are believed to have formed in-situ in the Galaxy as well as in dwarf galaxies later accreted onto the Milky Way. However, to date, there is no una…
Hubble Space Telescope Proper Motion (HSTPROMO) Catalogs of Galactic Globular Clusters. V. The rapid rotation of 47 Tuc traced and modeled in three dimensions
A. Bellini, P. Bianchini, A. L. Varri +5
High-precision proper motions of the globular cluster 47 Tuc have allowed us to measure for the first time the cluster rotation in the plane of the sky and the velocity anisotropy…
The relation between the mass-to-light ratio and the relaxation state of globular clusters
Paolo Bianchini, Alison Sills, Glenn van de Ven +1
The internal dynamics of globular clusters (GCs) is strongly affected by two-body interactions that bring the systems to a state of partial energy equipartition. Using a set of Mon…
HST proper motions in Galactic globular clusters
Laura L. Watkins, Roeland P. van der Marel, Andrea Bellini +3
Proper motions (PMs) are crucial to fully understand the internal dynamics of globular clusters (GCs). To that end, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Proper Motion (HSTPROMO) collab…
