Faint southern spectrophotometric standard stars
N. P. Gentile Fusillo, S. Moehler, N. Przybilla +4
Context. The advent of the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) will increase the collecting area by more than an order of magnitude compared to the individual Unit Telescopes of the Ve…
FORS-Up: Making the most versatile instrument in Paranal ready for 15 more years of operations
H. M. J. Boffin, F. Derie, A. Manescau +12
The FORS Upgrade project (FORS-Up) aims at bringing a new life to the highly demanded workhorse instrument attached to ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). FORS2 is a multimode optica…
INSPIRE: INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics -- I. Survey presentation and pilot program
C. Spiniello, C. Tortora, G. D'Ago +12
Massive ETGs are thought to form through a two-phase process. At early times, an intense and fast starburst forms blue and disk-dominated galaxies. After quenching, the remaining s…
The ESO supernovae type Ia progenitor survey (SPY)
R. Napiwotzki, C. A. Karl, T. Lisker +13
Close double degenerate binaries are one of the favoured progenitor channels for type Ia supernovae, but it is unclear how many suitable systems there are in the Galaxy. We report…
Hot UV-bright stars of galactic globular clusters
S. Moehler, W. B. Landsman, T. Lanz +1
We have performed a census of the UV-bright population in 78 globular clusters using wide-field UV telescopes. This population includes a variety of phases of post-horizontal branc…
SHOTGLAS I: The ultimate spectroscopic census of extreme horizontal branch stars in Centauri
Marilyn Latour, Suzanna K. Randall, Annalisa Calamida +2
The presence of extreme horizontal branch (EHB) and blue hook stars in some Galactic globular clusters (GGCs) constitutes one of the remaining mysteries of stellar evolution. In th…
