Tidal tails of Milky Way globular clusters
(EDP Sciences, 2020-05)
We report on the search for overall kinematical or structural conditions that have allowed some Milky Way globular clusters to develop tidal tails. For this purpose, we built a comprehensive catalog of globular clusters ...
Variations in the width, density, and direction of the Palomar 5 tidal tails
(IOP, 2020)
Stars that escape globular clusters form tidal tails that are predominantly shaped by the global distribution of mass in the Galaxy, but also preserve a historical record of small-scale perturbations. Using deep grz ...
Tails and streams around the Galactic globular clusters NGC 1851, NGC 1904, NGC 2298 and NGC 2808
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
We present Dark Energy Camera imaging for the peculiar Galactic globular clustersNGC 1851, NGC1904 (M 79), NGC2298 and NGC2808. Our deep photometry reveals that all the clusters have an important contribution of stars ...
Structure of the class XI myosin globular tail reveals evolutionary hallmarks for cargo recognition in plants
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-02)
The plant-specific class XI myosins (MyoXIs) play key roles at the molecular, cellular and tissue levels, engaging diverse adaptor proteins to transport cargoes along actin filaments. To recognize their cargoes, MyoXIs ...
Discovery of extended tidal tails around the globular cluster Palomar 13
(The American Astronomical Society, 2020)
We use photometry from the DECam Legacy Survey to detect candidate tidal tails extending ∼5° on either side of the Palomar 13 globular cluster. The tails are aligned with the proper motion of Palomar 13 and are consistent ...
The disruption of the low-mass globular cluster E 3
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-09)
We use Gaia DR2 photometry and proper motions to search for the hypothetical tidal tails of the Galactic globular cluster E 3. Using a modified version of a classical decontamination procedure, we are able to identify the ...
