Stellar dynamics and proper motions in 47Tuc

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We have used HST imaging of the central regions of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae (=NGC 104), taken with the WFPC2 and ACS instruments between 1995 and 2002, to derive proper motions and U- and V-band magnitudes for 14366 stars within 100 (about 5 core radii) of the cluster center.

Description

This represents the largest set of member velocities collected for any globular cluster. The stars involved range in brightness from just fainter than the horizontal branch of the cluster to more than 2.5mag below the main-sequence turnoff.

In the course of obtaining these kinematic data, we also use a recent set of ACS images to define a list of astrometrically calibrated positions (and F475W magnitudes) for nearly 130000 stars in a larger, 3x3 central area. We describe our data reduction procedures in some detail and provide the full position, photometric, and velocity data.
