- Description:
- We present new CCD photometric observations of V1044 Her obtained on May 22, 23 and 24, 2015. From our data, we derived five new light curve minimum times. Combining our new results with previously available CCD light minimum times, we derived an updated ephemeris and discovered that the period of this binary system exhibits an oscillation. The cyclic variation may be caused by the light-time effect via the presence of a third body or magnetic activity cycle. We calculated the corresponding period of the third body to be 14.1+/-1.4 years or magnetic cycle to be 12.2+/-0.7 years. We analyzed our new asymmetric light curves to obtain photometric solutions and starspot parameters using the Wilson and Devinney program. The final results show that V1044 Her is a contact binary system with a degree of contact factor f=3.220(+/-0.002)%.

- Description:
- We have obtained CCD photometry in the Johnson V, Kron-Cousins I and CT_1_ Washington systems for NGC 2324, a rich open cluster located ~35{deg} from the Galactic anticentre direction.

- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present the results of the DART imaging and CaII triplet (CaT) survey of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) at ESO. We collected hundreds of low resolution spectra of Red Giant Branch (RGB) stars in the CaT region, using VLT/FLAMES in Medusa mode, with the GIRAFFE spectrograph (grating LR8, resolving power R~6500). We list the results for the targets with a S/N per Angstrom >10 and an error in velocity <5km/s, because we found this to be the minimum for an accurate determination of velocity and equivalent width. We checked the sample to weed out any spurious object (e.g., broken fibres, background galaxies, foreground stars, spectra not consistent with RGBs). We use a 2.5sigma cut from the system velocity to derive which stars are probable velocity members of the Fornax dSph. We transform the equivalent width of the CaT lines of probable velocity members into metallicity ([Fe/H]) using the relation derived by Rutledge et al. (1997PASP..109..907R) and combining the CaT lines as in Tolstoy et al. (2001MNRAS.327..918T). The errors in [Fe/H] are based on S/N computations and adjusted to agree with repeated measurements.

- Title:
- V, I , and Gunn z imaging of Terzan 4
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We study the globular cluster Terzan 4 projected close to the Galactic center, by means of V, I and Gunn z Colour-Magnitude Diagrams. The images were obtained under exceptional seeing conditions (0.35"-0.55") at the ESO New Technology Telescope equipped with SUSI. We derive a reddening of E(B-V)=2.35 and a distance from the Sun d_{sun}_=8.3kpc for Terzan 4. From the similarity of the VI Colour-Magnitude Diagrams of Terzan 4 and M30, in particular the presence of a blue horizontal branch, it could be as metal-poor as [Fe/H]=~-2.0. It is therefore another blue horizontal branch globular cluster located close to the Galactic center.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present VI CCD photometric observations of about 5500 stars up to a limiting magnitude of V~20 in an area of ~16'x16' around the cluster NGC 6631. The cluster parameters determined for the first time by fitting the theoretical isochrones in the V, (V-I) diagram of the cluster stars are E(V-I)=0.60+/-0.05mag, distance=2.6+/-0.5kpc, age=400+/-100Myr and metallicity, Z=0.05. The cluster diameter determined from the radial density profile is 4.8+-0.5pc. The mass function of the cluster has a slope of 2.1+/-05.

- V,I CCD photometry of NGC 6528
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present CCD photometry in V and I for the metal-rich globular cluster NGC 6528. A comparison with previous photometry reveals discrepancies of the order 0.1 to 0.2mag in V, emphasizing the need for independent photometry. As found previously, the giant branch (or the asymptotic giant branch, which cannot be distinguished) of the cluster extends to V-I=7. Population synthesis in V-I must take these red stars into account in order to understand integrated red colours of bulge populations. Currently available theoretical isochrones do not reproduce the shape of the RGB/AGB. The derivation of reliable values for reddening, distance and metallicity of NGC 6528 is hampered by uncertainties in the extrapolation to high metallicity, which dominate the absolute error rather than the photo metric uncertainty does. Together with other properties (old age derived from HST data, high radial velocity), this object is more likely a member of the bulge than of the disk population.

- Description:
- CCD observations in the Johnson V, Kron-Cousins I and the Washington system C and T_1_ passbands have been used to generate colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) reaching down to V~21.0mag and T_1_~19.0 for Trumpler 5, an old open cluster located towards the Galactic anticentre. Our data analysis confirms the existence of non-uniform extinction over the face of the cluster, the mean E(V-I) and E(C-T_1_) values being 0.80+/-0.05 and 1.17+/-0.15, respectively. Through comparison of the cluster CMDs with theoretical isochrones of the Geneva group, Washington Standard Giant Branches and measures of V and T_1_ indices, we derive the following values for the cluster apparent distance modulus, age, and metallicity: V-M_V_=13.80+/-0.30 (corresponding to a distance from the Sun of 2.4+/-0.5 kpc and 0.04kpc above the Galactic plane), t=5.0+/-0.5Gyr and [Fe/H]=-0.30+/-0.15. We estimate the cluster angular radius to be about 7.7 arcmin (=5.4pc) from star counts carried out within and outside the cluster field.
