A spectroscopic survey of dwarf galaxies in the Coma Cluster: Stellar populations, environment and downsizing
Russell J. Smith, John R. Lucey, Michael J. Hudson +5
We investigate the stellar populations in a sample of 89 faint (M*+2 to M*+4) red galaxies in the Coma cluster, using high S/N spectroscopy from the MMT. Our sample is drawn from t…
The 2dF-SDSS LRG and QSO Survey: The spectroscopic QSO catalogue
Scott M. Croom, Gordon T. Richards, Tom Shanks +27
We present the final spectroscopic QSO catalogue from the 2dF-SDSS LRG and QSO (2SLAQ) Survey. This is a deep, 18<g<21.85 (extinction corrected), sample aimed at probing in detail…
Evidence for metallicity spreads in three massive M31 globular clusters
Isaura Fuentes-Carrera, Pascale Jablonka, Ata Sarajedini +3
We quantify the intrinsic width of the red giant branches of three massive globular clusters in M31 in a search for metallicity spreads within these objects. We present HST/ACS obs…
A 2dF spectroscopic study of globular clusters in NGC 5128: Probing the formation history of the nearest giant Elliptical
Michael Beasley, Terry Bridges, Eric Peng +4
We have performed a spectroscopic study of globular clusters (GCs) in the giant elliptical NGC 5128 using the 2dF facility at the Anglo-Australian telescope. We obtained integrated…
A large population of recently-quenched red-sequence dwarf galaxies in the outskirts of the Coma Cluster
Russell J. Smith, Ronald O. Marzke, Ann E. Hornschemeier +6
We analyse the stellar populations of 75 red-sequence dwarf galaxies in the Coma cluster, based on high signal-to-noise spectroscopy from the 6.5m MMT. The sample covers a luminosi…
