Mapping Tidal Streams around Galactic Globular Clusters
David Martinez-Delgado, Dana I. Dinescu, Robert Zinn +3
The surroundings of globular clusters in the outer halo are one of the best places to look for the remnants of ancient dwarf satellites. The classical Searle & Zinn (1978) scenario…
The luminosity function of Palomar 5 and its tidal tails
A. Koch, M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel +2
We present the main sequence luminosity function of the tidally disrupted globular cluster Palomar 5 and its tidal tails. For this work we analyzed imaging data obtained with the W…
Tracing out the northern stream of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy with color- magnitude diagram techniques
D. Martinez-Delgado, M. A. Gomez-Flechoso, A. Aparicio
Standard cosmology predicts that dwarfs were the first galaxies to be formed in the Universe and that many of them merge afterwards to form bigger galaxies such as the Milky Way. T…
The Local Group galaxy candidates Cas dSph, Peg dSph=AndVI, and Cam A
C. Gallart, D. Martinez-Delgado, A. Aparicio +1
We present observations of the new Local Group galaxy candidates Cassiopeia dSph, Pegasus dSph=AndVI and Camelopardalis A. Our deep color-magnitude diagrams show that the first two…
Wide Field Observations of the Ursa Minor dSph galaxy
D. Martinez-Delgado, A. Aparicio
Ursa Minor (UMi) is one of the closest satellites of the Milky Way (d=69 kpc). It is possibly a disrupted dSph interacting with the external Galactic halo. This makes its study qui…
