Prospects for Detecting Fast Radio Bursts in the Globular Clusters of Nearby Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The recent detection of a repeating fast radio burst (FRB) in an old globular cluster in M81 challenges traditional FRB formation mechanisms based on the magnetic activity of young neutron stars formed in core-collapse supernovae.

Globular cluster star classification: Application to M13 [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2013 Starting from recent determination of Fe, O, Na abundances on a restricted sample (N = 67) of halo and thick disk stars, a natural and well motivated selection criterion is defined for the classification globular cluster stars. An application is

The Milky Way Bulge Extra-tidal Star Survey: BH 261 (AL 3)
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The Milky Way Bulge extra-tidal star survey is a spectroscopic survey with the goal of identifying stripped globular cluster stars from inner Galaxy clusters.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present a photometric analysis of globular cluster 47 Tuc (NGC 104) using near-IR imaging data from the GeMS/GSAOI Galactic Globular Cluster Survey (G4CS), which is in operation at Gemini-South telescope.

A Photometric Survey of Globular Cluster Systems in Brightest Cluster Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 Hubble Space Telescope imaging for 26 giant early-type galaxies, all drawn from the MAST archive, is used to carry out photometry of their surrounding globular cluster (GC) systems. Most of these targets are Brightest Cluster Galaxies and their distances

THE ABUNDANCES IN THE STELLAR ATMOSPHERES IN THE M13 GLOBULAR CLUSTER
Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017 The chemical composition of 5 stars' atmospheres in globular cluster M13 and 2 halo stars taken from literature have been computed. A slight excess of O and deficit of Mg have been defined for globular cluster stars.

Constraining Co-Varying Coupling Constants from Globular Cluster Age
Universe, 2023 Equations governing the evolution of a star involve multiple coupling constants. Thus, the time it spends as a main-sequence star can be expected to depend on whether or not such constants vary over the time scale of stellar evolution.

Dynamical Substructures of Galactic Globular Clusters I. M5 [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2004 CCD images to study the dynamical substructure of the globular cluster M5. We investigate the radial variation of ellipticities and position angles using the stellar photometry and the IRAF ellipse task.

r-process Abundance Patterns in the Globular Cluster M92
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Whereas light-element abundance variations are a hallmark of globular clusters, there is little evidence for variations in neutron-capture elements. A significant exception is M15, which shows a star-to-star dispersion in neutron-capture abundances of at
