Rosaria (Sara) Bonito Dipartimento di Fisica e Chimica Universita' degli Studi di Palermo INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di Palermo THE PROBLEMS OF SKY SUBTRACTION AND OF ANOMALOUS MEMBERS IN YOUNG CLUSTERS: THE CASE OF NGC 6611
2
FLAMES observations (HR15N setup) NGC 6611: forthcoming observations GES NGC 6611 & GES (Bonito et al. 2013)
3
Nebular contribution to H emission Strongly varying in space and time Narrower than stellar FWZI method (as EW and H 10% cannot be derived) SKY SUBTRACTION & H
4
FWZI METHOD (1) Zoom +/- 3 A around H in sky spectra
5
FWZI METHOD (2) Normalize: spectrum without the emission line
6
FWZI METHOD (3) Difference or ratio original spectrum/spectrum without the emission line
7
FWZI(H ) sky FWZI METHOD (4) < 3 A
8
FWZI(H ) star >> FWZI(H ) sky FWZI(Halpha) & ACCRETION (Bonito et al. 2013)
9
Upper limit for EW(Li) using other features in the Li spectral region (Randich et al. 2009) Median sky subtraction (Jeffries & Oliveira 2005) SKY SUBTRACTION AND Li (1)
10
Spurious absorption lines due to [SII] 6717 A SKY SUBTRACTION AND Li (1)
11
SKY SUBTRACTION AND Li (2) No Li No veiling Age Membership
12
NGC 6611: forthcoming observations Vel NGC 2264 NGC 6530 IMPLICATION FOR GES
13
BWE STARS IN NGC 6611 (Bonito et al. 2013) +: members from the Guarcello et al. (2010) catalog : all the targets observed with FLAMES : BWE stars (with disk)
14
BWE STARS: WHY? > 50 %: members (Bonito et al. 2013) old members? (De Marchi, Panagia, Guarcello, Bonito et al. 2013) also in other clusters completeness age spread? GES
15
CONCLUSIONS Sky subtraction FWZI(H method Spurious absorption lines (Li) Blue with excesses (BWE) stars completeness age spread other clusters (GES)
