Wide-Field Washington Photometry of the NGC 5128 Globular Cluster System. I. The Database
Abstract
To investigate the global properties of the globular cluster system (GCS) around NGC 5128, the central giant elliptical galaxy in the nearby Centaurus group, we have obtained deep CCD imaging for an area of almost 2 deg2 centered on the galaxy. Our data, in the CMT1 Washington photometric system, reach an approximate limiting magnitude of T1 ≃ R ≃ 22 and contain magnitudes, colors, and coordinates for more than 100,000 objects. Of these, the …
