Catalog Service: Revised Bologna Catalog of M31 clusters, V.3
Description
We present the first results of a large spectroscopic survey of candidate globular clusters located in the extreme outskirts of the nearby M 31 galaxy. The survey is aimed at ascertaining the nature of the selected candidates to increase the sample of confirmed M 31 clusters lying more that 2{deg} away from the center of the galaxy. We obtained low resolution spectra ({lambda}/{Delta}{lambda}~800-1300) of 48 targets selected from the Extended Source Catalogue of 2MASS, as in Galleti et al. (2005A&A...436..535G). The observed candidates have been robustly classified according to their radial velocity and by verifying their extended/point-source nature from ground-based optical images. We have also obtained a spectrum and a radial velocity estimate for the remote M 31 globular discovered by Martin et al. (2006MNRAS.371.1983M).
