Lick line-index and photometry of globular clusters

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The catalog contains Lick line-index and photometric measurements of extragalactic globular clusters in seven early-type galaxies (NGC 1380, 2434, 3115, 3379, 3585, 5846, and 7192) with different morphological types (E/S0) located in field and group/cluster environments.

Description

High-quality spectra were taken with the FORS2 instrument at ESO's Very Large Telescope. ~50% of our data allows an age resolution {Delta}t/t~0.3 and a metallicity resolution ~0.25-0.4dex, depending on the absolute metallicity.

Globular cluster candidates are selected from deep B, V, R, I, K FORS2/ISAAC photometry with 80-100% success rate inside one effective radius. Using combined optical/near-infrared colour-colour diagrams we present a method to efficiently reduce fore-/background contamination down to <~10%.
