Galaxy, Globular Cluster: M79, Proper Motion

Scientific paper

Absolute proper motion determined is made for Galactic globular cluster M79 using photographic plates of Shanghai Observatory, with a time base of 29 years. Adopting the distance and radial velocity data of this cluster from Harris(1999) and the Galactic gravitational potential model of Allen & Santillan(1991),we calculated for M79 its present day spatial velocity and orbital parameters as well. Further discussions are made on the uncertainties related to the study of the globular cluster kinematics with proper motion data.
