The membership determination for open clusters in noisy environments of the Milky Way is still an open problem. In this paper, our main aim is provide the membership probability of stars using proper motions and parallax values of stars…

We present a second set of results from a wide-field photometric survey of the environs of Milky Way globular clusters. The clusters studied are NGC 1261, NGC 1851 and NGC 5824: all have data from DECam on the Blanco 4m telescope. NGC 5824…

The stellar dynamics of Omega Centauri are inferred from the radial velocities of 469 stars measured with CORAVEL (Mayor et al. 1997). Rather than fit the data to a family of models, we generate estimates of all dynamical functions…

We determine rotation periods for 127 stars in the ~115 Myr old Blanco 1 open cluster using ~200 days of photometric monitoring with the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS). These stars span F5-M3 spectral types (1.2 $\gtrsim M \gtrsim$…

We simulate star formation in two molecular clouds extracted from a larger disc-galaxy simulation with a spatial resolution of ~0.1 pc, one exiting a spiral arm dominated by compression, and another in an inter-arm region more strongly…

We develop a model-independent framework to quantify phase-space "crystallization", the degree of ordered radial and kinematic substructure, in 79 Galactic globular clusters using the Gaia EDR3-based membership catalogue of E. Vasiliev & H.…

We present kinematical analyses of 22 Galactic globular clusters using the Hubble Space Telescope proper motion (HSTPROMO) catalogues recently presented in Bellini et al. (2014). For most clusters, this is the first proper-motion study ever…

The formation process of multiple populations in globular clusters is still up for debate. Kinematic differences between the populations are particularly interesting in this respect, because they allow us to distinguish between single-epoch…

In the pre-main-sequence stage, star-disc interactions have been shown to remove stellar angular momentum and regulate the rotation periods of stars with M2 and earlier spectral types. Whether disc regulation also extends to stars with…
