Age and Metallicity Analysis of the Small Magellanic Cloud from Star Clusters

We present metallicities for 15 Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) star clusters. We add to this information the ages and metallicities of 15 additional star clusters previously studied by Parisi et al. (2009) and Parisi et al. (2013) which were observed and analyzed following the same procedures as in th...

description We present metallicities for 15 Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) star clusters. We add to this information the ages and metallicities of 15 additional star clusters previously studied by Parisi et al. (2009) and Parisi et al. (2013) which were observed and analyzed following the same procedures as in the presentwork. Therefore, we compiled a sample of 30 SMC star clusters homogeneously studied. Metallicities are determined from the Calcium II triplet lines (CaT) in spectra obtained using FORS2 multiobject spectrograph on the VLT (Paranal, Chile) and ages are determined from Color-Magnitude Diagrams built from photometry on the pre-images. Using this sample, we now here analyze the chemical properties of the SMC, particularly the Age-Metallicity Relation. We found three new old clusters which help to fill the so called SMC "age gap" between L 1 and NGC121. These new old SMC clusters broadly increase our knowledge of the chemical evolution of this galaxy during the earliest epochs.
