It offers a novel observational account of their long-term evolution from formation to the present and their kinematic characteristics (i.e., how stars move within globular clusters ...

In particular, globular clusters could help researchers to better understand the formation history and evolution of early-type galaxies, as the origin of GCs seems to be closely linked to periods ...

"Of the galaxies identified, 58% are elliptical dwarf galaxies, 42% are irregular galaxies and a few are rich in globular clusters (1% ... is investigating the formation and development of ...

The clusters may eventually evolve into massive star systems over millions of years. Despite the overall star formation efficiency in the CMZ being similar to that of other active star-forming ...

This week’s small-telescope target is globular cluster NGC 2808 in the southern constellation Carina the Keel. It shines at magnitude 6.2 and has a diameter of 13.8′. That means it covers 20 ...
