Stellar masses from the CANDELS survey: the GOODS-South and UDS fields
P. Santini, H. C. Ferguson, A. Fontana +35
We present the public release of the stellar mass catalogs for the GOODS-S and UDS fields obtained using some of the deepest near-IR images available, achieved as part of the Cosmi…
The formation of stellar nuclear discs in bar-induced gas inflows
David R. Cole, Victor P. Debattista, Peter Erwin +2
The role of gas in the mass assembly at the nuclei of galaxies is still subject to some uncertainty. Stellar nuclear discs bridge the gap between the large-scale galaxy and the cen…
The Hawk-I UDS and GOODS Survey (HUGS): Survey design and deep K-band number counts
A. Fontana, J. S. Dunlop, D. Paris +40
We present the results of a new, ultra-deep, near-infrared imaging survey executed with the Hawk-I imager at the ESO VLT, of which we make all the data public. This survey, named H…
The HST/ACS Coma Cluster Survey. X. Nuclear star clusters in low-mass early-type galaxies: scaling relations
Mark den Brok, Reynier F. Peletier, Anil Seth +16
We present scaling relations between structural properties of nuclear star clusters and their host galaxies for a sample of early-type dwarf galaxies observed as part of the Hubble…
Evolution of central dark matter of early-type galaxies up to z ~ 0.8
C. Tortora, N. R. Napolitano, R. P. Saglia +3
We investigate the evolution of dark and luminous matter in the central regions of early-type galaxies (ETGs) up to z ~ 0.8. We use a spectroscopically selected sample of 154 clust…
Life and death of a hero - Lessons learned from modeling the dwarf spheroidal Hercules: an incorrect orbit?
M. Blana, M. Fellhauer, R. Smith +3
Hercules is a dwarf spheroidal satellite of the Milky Way, found at a distance of about 138 kpc, and showing evidence of tidal disruption. It is very elongated and exhibits a veloc…
