Deep Advanced Camera For Surveys Imaging In The Globular Cluster Ngc 6397: The Cluster Color-Magnitude Diagram And Luminosity Function, Harvey B. Richer, Aaron Dotter, Jarrod Hurley, Jay Anderson
Dartmouth Scholarship
We present the color-magnitude diagram (CMD) from deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging in the globular cluster NGC 6397. The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) was used for 126 orbits to image a single field in two colors (F814W, F606W) 5' SE of the cluster center. The field observed overlaps that of archival WFPC2 data from 1994 and 1997 which were used to proper motion (PM) clean the data. Applying the PM corrections produces a remarkably clean CMD which reveals a number of features never seen before in a globular cluster CMD. In our field, the main-sequence stars appeared to terminate …
