Terahertz Water Masers: II. Further SOFIA/GREAT Detections toward Circumstellar Outflows, and a Multitransition Analysis

David A. Neufeld, Karl M. Menten, Carlos Durán +8

Following up on our discovery of terahertz water masers, reported in 2017, we report two further detections of water maser emission at frequencies above 1 THz. Using the GREAT inst…

NGC 474 as viewed with KCWI: diagnosing a shell galaxy

Adebusola B. Alabi, Anna Ferré-Mateu, Duncan A. Forbes +2

We present new spectra obtained using Keck/KCWI and perform kinematics and stellar population analyses of the shell galaxy NGC 474, from both the galaxy centre and a region from th…

Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI) Spectra of Globular Clusters and Ultra Compact Dwarfs in the Halo of M87

Duncan A. Forbes, Anna Ferré-Mateu, Mark Durré +2

Using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager we obtain spectra of several globular clusters (GCs), ultra compact dwarfs (UCDs) and the inner halo starlight of M87, at a similar projected galac…

On the Stellar Kinematics and Mass of the Virgo Ultra-Diffuse Galaxy VCC 1287

Jonah S. Gannon, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +3

Here, we present a kinematical analysis of the Virgo cluster ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG) VCC 1287 based on data taken with the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI). We confirm VCC 1287's a…

An expanded catalogue of low surface brightness galaxies in the Coma cluster using Subaru/Suprime-Cam

Adebusola B. Alabi, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Duncan A. Forbes +2

We present a catalogue of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the Coma cluster obtained from deep Subaru/Suprime-Cam V and R-band imaging data within a region of 4 deg$^…

The assembly history of the nearest S0 galaxy NGC 3115 from its kinematics out to six half-light radii

Arianna Dolfi, Duncan A. Forbes, Warrick J. Couch +6

Using new and archival data, we study the kinematic properties of the nearest field S0 galaxy, NGC 3115, out to half-light radii () from its stars (integrat…
