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…
Eight more low luminosity globular clusters in the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy
D. Minniti, M. Gómez, J. Alonso-García +2
Context. The Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy is merging with the Milky Way, and the study of its globular clusters (GCs) is important to understand the history and outcome of this o…
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…
Confirmation and physical characterization of the new bulge globular cluster Patchick 99 from the VVV and Gaia surveys
E. R. Garro, D. Minniti, M. Gómez +4
Globular clusters (GCs) are important tools to understand the formation and evolution of the Milky Way (MW). The known MW sample is still incomplete, so the discovery of new GC can…
ALMA detection of the dusty object silhouetted against the S0 galaxy NGC 3269 in the Antlia cluster
L. K. Haikala, R. Salinas, T. Richtler +3
An intriguing silhouette of a small dust patch can be seen against the disk of the S0 galaxy NGC 3269 in the Antlia cluster in optical images. The images do not provide any clue as…
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…
