The Rogue One: A Dark Matter-Dominated Dwarf in the Trail of Dark Matter-Deficient Galaxies

Daniel Vaz, Arsen Levitskiy, Duncan Forbes +6

We present the first measurement of the stellar velocity dispersion of LEDA 4014647, a compact dwarf galaxy spatially aligned with the NGC 1052 trail, a linear chain of dark matter…

Formation of Accretion Disks around Intermediate-Mass Black Holes in Ultra Compact Dwarf Galaxies and Nuclear Stellar Clusters

Sebastian Darr, Kenji Bekki

Recent observations have found many ultra-compact dwarf galaxies (UCDs) that contain massive black holes (MBHs) typically consisting of of their total mass, with some a…

Formation of globular cluster-rich ultra-diffuse galaxies through mergers

Truman Tapia, Hidenori Matsui, Kenji Bekki +6

We use high-resolution, idealized hydrodynamic simulations of gas-rich dwarf-galaxy mergers to test whether such encounters can form ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) with globular clu…

Globular cluster formation with multiple stellar populations: A comprehensive overview of a star-cloud interaction scenario

Kenji Bekki, Madeleine McKenzie

We present a new scenario of globular cluster (GC) formation with multiple stellar populations (MPs) in which both the first and second populations (1P and 2P, respectively) of sta…

Insights into Jet-Induced Cloud Disruption in NGC 1316: ALMA Reveals a Spatially Extended Molecular Gas

Kana Morokuma-Matsui, Alexander Y. Wagner, Filippo M. Maccagni +14

We present ALMA CO() observations of a nearby radio galaxy NGC1316 at a 100-pc resolution to investigate the impact of AGN jets on the molecular gas. The molecular gas exhib…

Simulating the spatial distributions of gas- and ice-phase molecules in galaxies: a new method and preliminary results

K. Bekki, K. Furuya, T. Shimonishi

Recent observations have revealed significant variations in the abundances of gas- and ice-phase molecules in galaxies with different luminosities and types. In order to discuss th…
