The binary fraction in the globular cluster NGC 6397

D. S. Davis, H. B. Richer, J. Anderson +5

Using Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the globular cluster NGC6397, we constrain the cluster's binary fraction. The observations consist of two fields: the primary sci…

The White Dwarf Cooling Sequence of NGC6397

Brad M. S. Hansen, Jay Anderson, James Brewer +10

We present the results of a deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) exposure of the nearby globular cluster NGC6397, focussing attention on the cluster's white dwarf cooling sequence. Th…

Probing the Faintest Stars in a Globular Star Cluster

Harvey B. Richer, Jay Anderson, James Brewer +10

NGC 6397 is the second closest globular star cluster to the Sun. Using 5 days of time on the Hubble Space Telescope, we have constructed the deepest ever color-magnitude diagram fo…

The Space Motion of the Globular Cluster NGC 6397

Jasonjot S. Kalirai, Jay Anderson, Harvey B. Richer +12

As a by-product of high-precision, ultra-deep stellar photometry in the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6397 with the Hubble Space Telescope, we are able to measure a large populatio…

The white dwarf cooling sequence in NGC 6791

L. R. Bedin, M. Salaris, G. Piotto +5

In the old, populous, and metal-rich open cluster NGC 6791 we have used deep HST/ACS images to track the white dwarf cooling sequence down to m_F606W~28.5. The white dwarf luminosi…

Carbon Stars and other Luminous Stellar Populations in M33

J. F. Rowe, H. B. Richer, J. P. Brewer +1

The M33 galaxy is a nearby, relatively metal-poor, late-type spiral. Its proximity and almost face-on inclination means that it projects over a large area on the sky, making it an…
