The dark matter content of early-type barred galaxies
E. M. Corsini
The dynamics of a barred galaxy depends on the pattern speed of its bar. The only direct method for measuring the pattern speed of a bar is the Tremaine-Weinberg technique. This me…
The double main sequence of Omega Centauri
L. R. Bedin, G. Piotto, J. Anderson +4
Recent, high precision photometry of Omega Centauri, the biggest Galactic globular cluster, has been obtained with Hubble Space Telescope. The color magnitude diagram reveals an un…
Central DM density cuspiness in LSB's: a stellar kinematics approach
A. Pizzella, E. M. Corsini, F. Bertola +4
We present preliminary results from spectroscopic observations of a sample of 11 low surface brightness galaxies (LSB). We measured the stellar and gaseous kinematics along their m…
The sigma_c-V_c correlation in high and low surface brightness galaxies
A. Pizzella, E. Dalla Bonta', E. M. Corsini +2
We investigate the relation between the central velocity dispersion, sigma_0, and the circular velocity, V_c, in galaxies. In addition to previously available data, we consider an…
Supernova Statistics
Enrico Cappellaro, Roberto Barbon, Massimo Turatto
The statistics of SN discoveries is used to reveal selection biases of past and current SN searches and to gain insight on the progenitor scenarios for the different SN types. We a…
Variable stars as tracers of stellar populations in Local Group galaxies: Leo I and NGC 6822
L. Baldacci, F. Matonti, L. Rizzi +5
Results are presented of a study of the variable star populations in the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Leo I and in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822, based on time series photometry o…
