Descripción
We perform integrated spectroscopy of 24 Galactic globular clusters (GGCs). Spectra are observed from one core radius for each cluster with a high wavelength resolution of ∼2.0 Å FWHM. In combination with two existing data sets from Puzia et al. and Schiavon et al., we construct a large database of Lick spectral indices for a total of 53 GGCs with a wide range of metallicities, ‑2.4 ≲ [Fe/H] ≲ 0.1, and various horizontal-branch morphologies. The empirical index-to-metallicity conversion relationships are provided for the 20 Lick indices for the use of deriving metallicities for remote, unresolved stellar systems.

    Characterisation at Cryogenic Temperatures of an Attenuator for an Application of Astrophysical Instrumentation with MKIDs
    The use of non-cryogenic certified commercial electronics for cryogenic applications may be attractive due to their cost and availability, but it also carries risks related to reliability, performance and thermal compatibility. The decision to use commercial components that are not certified for cryogenics instead of components specifically

    CLASH-VLT: Galaxy cluster MACS J0329–0211 and its surroundings using galaxies as kinematic tracers
    Context. The study of substructure is an important step in determining how galaxy clusters form. Aims. We aim to gain new insights into the controversial dynamical status of MACS J0329–0211 (MACS0329), a massive cluster at z = 0.4503 ± 0.0003, through a new analysis using a large sample of member galaxies as kinematic tracers. Methods. Our analysis

    The Pristine survey: XXIII. Data Release 1 and an all-sky metallicity catalogue based on Gaia DR3 BP/RP spectro-photometry
    We used the spectro-photometric information of ∼219 million stars from Gaia's Data Release 3 (DR3) to calculate synthetic, narrowband, metallicity-sensitive CaHK magnitudes that mimic the observations of the Pristine survey, a survey of photometric metallicities of Milky Way stars that has been mapping more than 6500 deg 2 of the northern sky with
