In a recent paper Brown et al. (2018) analyze the spectral properties of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae (47 Tuc) using 9 years of Fermi-LAT data. Brown et al. (2018) argue that the emission from 47 Tuc cannot be explained by millisecond…

We present the result of a detailed analysis of HST UV and optical deep images of the massive and young (~1.5 Gyr) stellar cluster NGC 1783 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. This system does not show evidences of multiple populations (MPs)…

We report results from a large Hubble Space Telescope project to observe a significant (~34,000) ensemble of main sequence stars in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae with a goal of defining the frequency of inner-orbit, gas-giant planets.…

We have used a combination of high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 and wide-field ground-based observations in ultraviolet and optical bands to study the BSS population of the globular clusters NGC 6229 and M75. The combination of…

The morphology of the Horizontal Branch (HB) in Globular Clusters (GC) is among the early evidences that they contain multiple populations of stars. Indeed, the location of each star along the HB depends both on its initial helium content…

Theoretical integrated broad-band colors ranging from far-UV to near-IR have been computed for old stellar systems from our evolutionary population synthesis code. These models take into account, for the first time, the detailed systematic…

Recent work revealed that both the helium variation within globular clusters (GCs) and the relative numbers of first and second-generation stars (1G, 2G) depend on the mass of the host cluster. Precise determination of the internal helium…

The analysis of multiple populations (MPs) in globular clusters, both spectroscopically and photometrically, is key in understanding their formation and evolution. The relatively narrow Johnson U, F336W, and Stromgren and Sloan u filters…
