The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). II. A Catalog of Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
Laura Ferrarese, Patrick Cote, Lauren A. MacArthur +51
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) is a deep, high resolution imaging campaign that used the 1 deg MegaCam instrument on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope to carr…
The Star Formation History and Evolution of the Ultra-Diffuse M81 Satellite F8D1
Adam Smercina, Eric F. Bell, Benjamin F. Williams +15
We present deep HST imaging of one of the nearest ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) outside of the Local Group: F8D1, a satellite of M81 known to be tidally disrupting. UDGs are an eni…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake: Cosmology and High-z Universe
Pablo G. Pérez-González, Roberto Maiolino, Pascal A. Oesch +16
Full sky coverage with 30-40 meter-class telescopes is essential to answer fundamental questions in Astrophysics, Cosmology, and Physics, such as the composition of the Universe an…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XL. The Morphological Classification of Virgo Cluster Galaxies
Max M. Kurzner, Patrick Côté, Laura Ferrarese +19
We present a study of morphologies, based on deep imaging of the Virgo Cluster from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS), for 3689…
The Globular Cluster System of the Virgo Cluster Ultradiffuse Galaxy VCC 615
J. Christopher Mihos, Patrick R. Durrell, Elisa Toloba +5
We use Hubble Space Telescope imaging to study the globular cluster system of the Virgo Cluster ultradiffuse galaxy (UDG) VCC 615. We select globular cluster candidates through a c…
