Fresh Insights on the Kinematics of M49's Globular Cluster System with MMT/Hectospec Spectroscopy
Matthew A. Taylor, Youkyung Ko, Patrick Côté +10
We present the first results of an MMT/Hectospec campaign to measure the kinematics of globular clusters (GCs) around M49 -- the brightest galaxy in the Virgo galaxy cluster, which…
The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS): VII. A MUSE view of the nuclear star clusters in Fornax dwarf galaxies
Evelyn J. Johnston, Thomas H. Puzia, Giuseppe D'Ago +16
Clues to the formation and evolution of Nuclear Star Clusters (NSCs) lie in their stellar populations. However, these structures are often very faint compared to their host galaxy,…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XVII. A Search for Planetary Nebulae in Virgo Cluster Globular Clusters
Weijia Sun, Eric W. Peng, Youkyung Ko +11
The occurrence of planetary nebulae (PNe) in globular clusters (GCs) provides an excellent chance to study low-mass stellar evolution in a special (low-metallicity, high stellar de…
How nucleation and luminosity shape faint dwarf galaxies
R. Sánchez-Janssen, T. H. Puzia, L. Ferrarese +9
We study the intrinsic shapes of a sample of over 400 quiescent galaxies in the cores of the Virgo and Fornax clusters with luminosities .…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XXIII. Fundamentals of nuclear star clusters over seven decades in galaxy mass
R. Sánchez-Janssen, P. Côté, L. Ferrarese +25
Using deep, high resolution optical imaging from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey we study the properties of nuclear star clusters (NSCs) in a sample of nearly 400 quiescen…
The Formation of Compact Elliptical Galaxies in The Vicinity of A Massive Galaxy: The Role of Ram-pressure Confinement
Min Du, Victor P. Debattista, Luis C. Ho +9
Compact ellipticals (cEs) are outliers from the scaling relations of early-type galaxies, particularly the mass-metallicity relation which is an important outcome of feedback. The…
