Proper motions and membership in NGC 6366

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

NGC 6366 is a metal-rich globular cluster that is relatively unstudied.

Description

It is a kinematically interesting cluster, reported as belonging to the slowly rotating halo system, which is unusual given its metallicity and spatial location in the Galaxy. The purpose of this research is to determine the relative proper motion and membership probability of the stars in the region of globular cluster NGC 6366.

To target cluster members reliably during spectroscopic surveys without including field stars, a good proper motion and membership probability catalogue of NGC 6366 is needed. To derive relative proper motions, the archival data from the Wide Field Imager mounted on the ESO 2.2m telescope have been reduced using a high precision astrometric software. The images used are in the B,V, and I photometric bands with an epoch gap of ~3.2yr.
