Ca II Triplet Spectroscopy of Small Magellanic Cloud Red Giants. V. Abundances and Velocities for 12 Massive Clusters
M. C. Parisi, L. V. Gramajo, D. Geisler +4
We aim to analyze the chemical evolution of the Small Magellanic Cloud adding 12 additional clusters to our existing sample having accurate and homogeneously derived metallicities.…
FSR 1776: a new globular cluster in the Galactic bulge?
B. Dias, T. Palma, D. Minniti +6
(ABRIDGED) Recent near-IR surveys have uncovered a plethora of new globular cluster (GC) candidates towards the Milky Way bulge. These new candidates need to be confirmed as real G…
An Intriguing Globular Cluster in the Galactic Bulge from the VVV Survey
D. Minniti, T. Palma, D. Camargo +7
Recent near-IR Surveys have discovered a number of new bulge globular cluster (GC) candidates that need to be further investigated. Our main objective is to use public data from th…
Discovery of new globular clusters in the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy
D. Minniti, V. Ripepi, J. G. Fernández-Trincado +14
Context. Globular clusters (GCs) are witnesses of the past accretion events onto the Milky Way (MW). In particular, the GCs of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy are important prob…
VVVX-Gaia Discovery of a Low Luminosity Globular Cluster in the Milky Way Disk
E. R. Garro, D. Minniti, M. Gómez +20
Milky Way globular clusters (MW GCs) are difficult to identify at low Galactic latitudes because of high differential extinction and heavy star crowding. The new deep near-IR image…
FSR 1716: A new Milky Way Globular Cluster confirmed using VVV RR Lyrae stars
Dante Minniti, Tali Palma, Istvan Dékány +35
We use deep multi-epoch near-IR images of the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) Survey to search for RR Lyrae stars towards the Southern Galactic plane. Here we report the di…
A sample of relatively unstudied star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud: fundamental parameters determined from Washington photometry
Tali Palma, Juan J. Clariá, Doug Geisler +2
To enlarge our growing sample of well-studied star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), we present CCD Washington CT1 photometry to T1 ~ 23 in the fields of twenty-three m…
