oMEGACat. I. MUSE Spectroscopy of 300,000 Stars within the Half-light Radius of ω Centauri

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Omega Centauri ( ω Cen) is the most massive globular cluster of the Milky Way and has been the focus of many studies that reveal the complexity of its stellar populations and kinematics.

The Globular Cluster System in the Inner Region of the Giant Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4472 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present a study of globular clusters in the inner region of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4472, based on the HST WFPC2 archive data. We have found about 1560 globular cluster candidates at the galactocentric radius r < 4 arcmin.

Massive Black Holes in Star Clusters. II. Realistic Cluster Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We have followed the evolution of multi-mass star clusters containing massive central black holes through collisional N-body simulations done on GRAPE6.

The Influence of the Galactic Bar on the Dynamics of Globular Clusters

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
We make use of recent estimates for the parameters of the Milky Way’s halo globular clusters and study the influence of the galactic bar on the dynamics of these clusters by computing their orbits.

The Origin of Gamma-Rays from Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Fermi has detected gamma-ray emission from eight globular clusters. We suggest that the gamma-ray emission from globular clusters may result from the inverse Compton scattering between relativistic electrons/positrons in the pulsar wind of MSPs in the ...

The inner Galactic globular clusters

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Galactic globular clusters located towards the inner regions of the Milky Way have been historically neglected, mainly due to the difficulties caused by the presence of an elevated extinction by foreground dust, and high field star densities along the ...

Wandering globular clusters: the first dwarf galaxies in the universe?

open access: yes, 2010
In the last decade we witness an advent of new types of dwarf stellar systems in cluding ultra-compact dwarfs, ultra-faint dwarf spheroidals, and exotic globular clusters, breaking the old simple paradigm for dwarf galaxies and globular clusters.

Some Systematics of Galactic Globular Clusters

open access: yes, 2011
The global properties of all known Galactic globular clusters are examined. The relationship between the luminosities and the metallicities of Galactic globular clusters is found to be complex.

Intracluster Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Globular cluster populations of supergiant elliptical galaxies are known to vary widely, from extremely populous systems like that of UGC 9799, the centrally dominant galaxy in Abell 2052, to globular-cluster-poor galaxies such as NGC 5629 in Abell 2666.
