The chemical composition of globular clusters in the Local Group
S. S. Larsen, P. Eitner, E. Magg +5
We present detailed abundance measurements for 45 globular clusters (GCs) in galaxies in (and, in one case, beyond) the Local Group. The measurements are based on new high-resoluti…
NGC5846-UDG1: A galaxy formed mostly by star formation in massive, extremely dense clumps of gas
Shany Danieli, Pieter van Dokkum, Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez +10
It has been shown that ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) have higher specific frequencies of globular clusters on average than other dwarf galaxies with similar luminosities. The UDG N…
Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies in the Perseus Cluster: Comparing Galaxy Properties with Globular Cluster System Richness
Jonah S. Gannon, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +6
It is clear that within the class of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) there is an extreme range in the richness of their associated globular cluster (GC) systems. Here, we report the…
A Tip of the Red Giant Branch Distance of Mpc to the Dark Matter Deficient Galaxy NGC1052-DF2 from 40 Orbits of Hubble Space Telescope Imaging
Zili Shen, Shany Danieli, Pieter van Dokkum +7
The large and diffuse galaxies NGC1052-DF2 and NGC1052-DF4 have been found to have very low dark matter content and a population of luminous globular clusters. Accurate distance me…
A recently quenched isolated dwarf galaxy outside of the Local Group environment
Ava Polzin, Pieter van Dokkum, Shany Danieli +2
We report the serendipitous identification of a low mass (), isolated, likely quenched dwarf galaxy in the "foreground" of the COSMOS-CAN…
The SLUGGS survey: combining stars, globular clusters and planetary nebulae to understand the assembly history of early-type galaxies from their large radii kinematics
A. Dolfi, D. A. Forbes, W. J. Couch +4
We investigate the kinematic properties of nine nearby early-type galaxies with evidence of a disk-like component. Three of these galaxies are located in the field, five in the gro…
