Orbits of Galactic Globular Clusters from Schmidt Plate Astrometry
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 July 2016
Abstract
We present results from orbit integrations for the globular clusters M 3 and M 92. Absolute proper motions recently measured from Tautenburg Schmidt plates and a three-component mass model for the Galaxy have been used to derive the galactic orbits of these clusters. Orbital parameters and the influence of observational uncertainties on the determination of the orbits are discussed.
