- Description:
- Radial velocity data are presented for three Galactic globular clusters, M3, M13, and M92. The provided catalogues include several hundreds of stars in each cluster that cover a wide range of distances to the cluster centres. Besides the measured radial velocities, the catalogues contain measurement uncertainties, identifiers, world coordinates and variability information for each star. The velocities for stars near the centres of the clusters were obtained using PMAS integral field spectroscopy (IFS). Note that in order to facilitate future variability studies, for each star the individual velocity measurements are provided instead of a single combined velocity. The PMAS data are complemented with velocities reported in various literature studies for stars at larger distances to the centres.

- Description:
- A test of Newton's law of gravity in the low acceleration regime using globular clusters is presented and new results for the core collapsed globular cluster NGC 7099 given. The run of the gravitational potential as a function of distance is probed by studying the velocity dispersion profile of the cluster, as derived from a set of 125 radial velocities with accuracy better than 1km/s. The velocity dispersion profile is traced up to ~18pc from the cluster center. The dispersion is found to be maximal at the center, then decrease until 10+/-2pc from the center, well inside the cluster tidal radius of 42pc. After that the dispersion remains basically constant with an average value of 2.2+/-0.3km/s. Assuming a total V magnitude of M(V)=-7.43mag for NGC 7099, the acceleration at 10+/-2pc from the center is 1.1^+0.4_-0.3_{tau}x10^-8^cm/s^2^, where {tau} is the mass-to-light ratio. Thus, for {tau}>~2 typical of globular clusters, the flattening of the velocity dispersion profile occurs for a value of the internal acceleration of gravity that is fully consistent with a_0_=1.2x10^-8^cm/s^2^ observed in galaxies. This new result for NGC 7099 brings to 4 the clusters with velocity dispersion profile probing acceleration below a_0_. All four have been found to have a flat dispersion profile at large radii where the acceleration is below a_0_, thereby mimicking elliptical galaxies qualitatively and quantitatively. Whether this indicates a failure of Newtonian dynamics in the low acceleration limit or some more conventional dynamical effect (e.g., tidal heating) is still unclear. However, the similarities emerging between very different globular clusters, as well as between globular clusters and elliptical galaxies, seem to favor the first of these two possibilities.

- Description:
- We present the result of a spectroscopic survey performed in the outskirts of the globular cluster NGC1851 with Visible MultiObject Spectrograph (VIMOS)/Very Large Telescope (VLT) with the medium-resolution grism coupled with the GG475 filter. The spectral coverage is from 5000 to 8000{AA} with a resolution R~580. Target stars have been selected from the photometry of Carballo-Bello et al. (2012MNRAS.419...14C), sampling a wide range in magnitude and colour (16<B<22, 0.6<B-R<2.1). We report the radial velocities of 107 stars in a region between 12 and 33 arcmin around the cluster centre. Observations have been performed during three nights in 2008 October at the Very Large Telescope's (VLT) Unit Telescope 3 (Melipal) at the European Southern Observatory (ESO), Cerro Paranal, Chile, equipped with the VIsible MultiObject Spectrograph (VIMOS). Velocities have been obtained by cross-correlating the spectra of the individual exposures with a GIRAFFE solar spectrum smoothed to the resolution of our targets using the region of the H-alpha line. Typical errors are of about 15km/s.

- Description:
- The multi-object fiber-fed spectrograph AAOmega at the Anglo-Australian Telescope has been used to establish and measure accurate (<=1km/s) radial velocities for a new sample of members in the outer parts of the stellar system {omega} Centauri. The new sample more than doubles the number of known members with precise velocities that lie between 25' and 45' from the cluster center. Combining this sample with earlier work confirms that the line-of-sight velocity dispersion of {omega} Cen remains approximately constant at ~6.5km/s in the outer parts of the cluster, which contain only a small fraction of the total cluster stellar mass. It is argued that the approximately constant velocity dispersion in the outer regions is most likely a consequence of external influences, such as the tidal shock heating that occurs each time {omega} Cen crosses the Galactic plane. There is therefore no requirement to invoke dark matter or non-standard gravitational theories.

- Description:
- List of 1966 radial velocity measurements of stars in globular cluster Omega Centauri (NGC 5139) taken with the ARGUS multi-object spectrometer at the CTIO 4m Blanco telescope. All the stars have a B magnitude brighter than 16.5. The median error is less than 2km/s. The stars are numbered using their LID (Leiden Identification Number) from van Leeuwen et.al. (2000, Cat. <J/A+A/360/472>). In a companion paper by van de Ven et al. (2006A&A...445..513V), we correct these radial velocities for the perspective rotation caused by the space motion of the cluster. Additionaly 339 stars where measured. These consist of (i) 87 stars with B-V<0.4, (ii) 252 stars not in the van Leeuwen et al. catalog. We suspect that that many of these stars have an erroneous value for their radial velocity.

- Description:
- We obtained precise line-of-sight radial velocities of 23 member stars of the remote halo globular cluster Palomar 4 (Pal 4) using the High Resolution Echelle Spectrograph at the Keck I telescope. We also measured the mass function of the cluster down to a limiting magnitude of V~28mag using archival Hubble Space Telescope/Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) imaging. We derived the cluster's surface brightness profile based on the WFPC2 data and on broad-band imaging with the Low Resolution Imaging Spectrometer at the Keck II telescope.
