NGC 6611 & GES • FLAMES observations (HR15N setup) • NGC 6611: forthcoming observations • GES (Bonito et al. 2013)
SKY SUBTRACTION & Ha • Nebular contribution to Ha emission • Strongly varying in space and time • Narrower than stellar • FWZI method • (as EW and Ha10% cannot be derived)
FWZI METHOD (1) • Zoom +/- 3 A around Hain sky spectra
FWZI METHOD (2) • Normalize: spectrum without the emission line
FWZI METHOD (3) • Difference orratiooriginal • spectrum/spectrumwithout the emissionline
FWZI METHOD (4) • FWZI(Ha) sky < 3 A
FWZI(Halpha) & ACCRETION • FWZI(Ha) star >> FWZI(Ha) sky • (Bonito et al. 2013)
SKY SUBTRACTION AND Li (1) • 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) • Spurious absorption lines due to [SII] 6717 A
SKY SUBTRACTION AND Li (2) • No Li • No veiling • Age • Membership
IMPLICATION FOR GES • NGC 6611: forthcoming observations • gVel • NGC 2264 • NGC 6530
(Bonito et al. 2013) BWE STARS IN NGC 6611 +: members from the Guarcello et al. (2010)catalog : all the targetsobservedwith FLAMES : BWE stars (with disk)
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
CONCLUSIONS • Sky subtraction • FWZI(Ha) method • Spurious absorption lines (Li) • Blue with excesses (BWE) stars • completeness • age spread • other clusters (GES)
