A Catalog of Parameters for Globular Clusters in the Milky Way
Abstract
A database of parameters for globular star clusters in the Milky Way is described which is available in electronic form through the WorldWideWeb. The information in the catalog includes up-to-date measurements for cluster distance, reddening, luminosity, colors and spectral types, velocity, structural and dynamical parameters, horizontal branch morphology, metallicity, and other quantities. This catalog will be updated regularly and maintained in electronic form for widest possible accessibility.

“…focuses on sub-solar chemical compositions, it has to be expected that if a fundamental problem 10 as derived from the HBR parameter listed in the Harris (1996) in the treatment of the opacity would be responsible for the colour offset, this would be even more serious at higher metallicities.”

“Plotted on top of the M 13 data in Figure 11 are isochrones with [Fe/H]=-1.5, [α/Fe]=+0.2 at 11 and 13 Gyr assuming a distance modulus of 14.4 in agreement with Harris (1996).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
