Gaia Focused Product Release
Gaia's readout window strategy is challenged by very dense fields in the sky. Therefore, in addition to standard Gaia observations, full Sky Mapper (SM) images were recorded for... -
VVV globulars. I. 2MASS-GC 02, Terzan 10
The VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) ESO Public Survey is opening a new window to study inner Galactic globular clusters (GCs) using their variable stars. These GCs have... -
Radial velocities of 12 Milky Way globular clusters
We present central velocity dispersions, masses, mass-to-light ratios (M/Ls), and rotation strengths for 25 Galactic globular clusters (GCs). We derive radial velocities of 1951... -
Variables in metal-rich clusters. IV. NGC 6496
We present VI-band photometry for stars in the metal-rich globular cluster NGC 6496. Our time-series data were cadenced to search for long-period variables (LPVs) over a span of... -
Spectroscopy of 25 stars in M68
In this paper, we present a detailed high-resolution spectroscopic study of post main sequence stars in the globular cluster (GC) M68. Our sample, which covers a range of 4000K... -
UBV and proper motions of Palomar 13
We present a proper-motion, CCD photometric study of stars in the distant halo globular cluster Palomar 13. The absolute proper motion of Pal 13 with respect to the background... -
HST obs. of NGC 2298, 5897, 6535, and 6626
HST observations of the core of four galactic globular clusters allowed us to obtain interesting clues about the influence of the environment on the star distribution along the... -
BV photometry in NGC 5986
We have obtained new CCD BV photometry of the little-studied southern Galactic globular cluster NGC 5986, including light curves of five of its RR Lyrae variables. The cluster's... -
UBVR photometry of NGC 6712 with VLT
We present extensive UBVR photometry of the Galactic globular cluster (GGC) NGC 6712 obtained with the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) which reaches down to 2 mag below the... -
Red giant Aluminium abundances in NGC 2808
We observed a sample of 90 red giant branch (RGB) stars in NGC 2808 using FLAMES/GIRAFFE and the high resolution grating with the set up HR21. These stars have previous accurate... -
UBVI photometry of NGC 3201
This paper aims at further studying one of the nearby Galactic globular clusters (GCs), NGC 3201. It is known to experience notable irregular variability of reddening across its... -
CCD Vilnius photometry of M56
CCD observations of field stars in an area north-east of the globular cluster M 56 were obtained in six bands of the Vilnius photometric system. The data sets cover a field of... -
HST VI photometry and proper motions in NGC 6528
Using two epochs of HST/WFPC2 images of the metal-rich globular cluster NGC 6528 we derive the proper motions of the stars and use them to separate the stars belonging to NGC... -
Radial velocities in the globular NGC 2808
The formation mechanism of hot horizontal branch (HB) stars is still one of the most uncertain points of stellar evolution theories. In the past decade, models based on their...
