Constraining the galaxy mass content in the core of A383 using velocity dispersion measurements for individual cluster members

A. Monna, S. Seitz, A. Zitrin +14

We use velocity dispersion measurements of 21 individual cluster members in the core of Abell 383, obtained with MMT Hectospec, to separate the galaxy and the smooth dark halo (DH)…

Structure Formation in Gas-Rich Galactic Discs with Finite Thickness: From Discs to Rings

Manuel Behrendt, Andreas Burkert, Marc Schartmann

Gravitational instabilities play an important role in structure formation of gas-rich high-redshift disc galaxies. In this paper, we revisit the axisymmetric perturbation theory an…

Central rotations of Milky Way Globular Clusters

Maximilian H. Fabricius, Eva Noyola, Surangkhana Rukdee +6

Most Milky Way globular clusters (GCs) exhibit measurable flattening, even if on a very low level. Both cluster rotation and tidal fields are thought to cause this flattening. Neve…

Stellar Metallicity of the Extended Disk and Distance of the Spiral Galaxy NGC 3621

Rolf-Peter Kudritzki, Miguel A. Urbaneja, Fabio Bresolin +2

Low resolution ESO VLT/FORS spectra of blue supergiant stars are analyzed to determine stellar metallicities (based on elements such as Fe, Ti, Mg) in the extended disk of the spir…

A New Method for Measuring Metallicities of Young Super Star Clusters

J. Zachary Gazak, Ben Davies, Nate Bastian +7

We demonstrate how the metallicities of young super star clusters can be measured using novel spectroscopic techniques in the J-band. The near-infrared flux of super star clusters…

Re-growth of stellar disks in mature galaxies: The two component nature of NGC 7217 revisited with VIRUS-W

Maximilian H. Fabricius, Lodovico Coccato, Ralf Bender +6

Previous studies have reported the existence of two counter-rotating stellar disks in the early-type spiral galaxy NGC7217. We have obtained high-resolution optical spectroscopic d…

On the fine structure of the Cepheid metallicity gradient in the Galactic thin disk

K. Genovali, B. Lemasle, G. Bono +15

We present homogeneous and accurate iron abundances for 42 Galactic Cepheids based on high-spectral resolution (R~38,000) high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR>100) optical spectra colle…
