Star density profiles of six old star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud
B. Lanzoni, F. R. Ferraro, E. Dalessandro +7
We used resolved star counts from Hubble Space Telescope images to determine the center of gravity and the projected density profiles of 6 old globular clusters in the Large Magell…
A family picture: tracing the dynamical path of the structural properties of multiple populations in globular clusters
E. Dalessandro, M. Cadelano, E. Vesperini +6
We studied the spatial distributions of multiple stellar populations (MPs) in a sample of 20 globular clusters (GCs) spanning a broad range of dynamical ages. The differences betwe…
Light element variations within the different age-metallicity populations in the nucleus of the Sagittarius dwarf
Alison Sills, Emanuele Dalessandro, Mario Cadelano +2
The cluster M54 lies at the centre of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy, and therefore may be the closest example of a nuclear star cluster. Either in-situ star formation, in…
Size diversity of old Large Magellanic Cloud clusters as determined by internal dynamical evolution
F. R. Ferraro, B. Lanzoni, E. Dalessandro +6
The distribution of size as a function of age observed for star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is very puzzling: young clusters are all compact, while the oldest syst…
An extremely low-mass He white dwarf orbiting the millisecond pulsar J1342+2822B in the globular cluster M3
M. Cadelano, F. R. Ferraro, A. G. Istrate +3
We report on the discovery of the companion star to the millisecond pulsar J1342+2822B in the globular cluster M3. We exploited a combination of near-ultraviolet and optical observ…
The double Blue Straggler sequence in NGC2173: yes, a field contamination artefact!
E. Dalessandro, F. R. Ferraro, N. Bastian +3
Li et al. (2018a; Li18a) claimed that the young stellar cluster NGC2173 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) harbours a bifurcated sequence of blue straggler stars (BSSs), similar t…
