Globular Cluster Systems of Relic Galaxies
Karla A. Alamo-Martínez, Ana L. Chies-Santos, Michael A. Beasley +6
We analyse the globular cluster (GC) systems of a sample of 15 massive, compact early-type galaxies (ETGs), 13 of which have already been identified as good relic galaxy candidates…
Detection of young (20 Myr) stellar populations in apparently quenched low-mass galaxies using red spectral line indices
A. de Lorenzo-Cáceres, A. Vazdekis, J. Falcón-Barroso +1
We report on the detection of a small contribution (around and below 1% in mass) from young stellar components with ages 20 Myr in low-mass galaxies purposely selected from t…
Reconstructing the mass accretion histories of nearby Red Nuggets with their globular cluster systems
Michael A. Beasley, Ryan Leaman, Ignacio Trujillo +6
It is generally recognized that massive galaxies form through a combination of in-situ collapse and ex-situ accretion. The in-situ component forms early, where gas collapse and com…
The number of globular clusters around the iconic UDG DF44 is as expected for dwarf galaxies
Teymoor Saifollahi, Ignacio Trujillo, Michael A. Beasley +2
There is a growing consensus that the vast majority of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are dwarf galaxies. However, there remain a few UDGs that seem to be special in terms of their…
NIHAO XXIV: Rotation or pressure supported systems? Simulated Ultra Diffuse Galaxies show a broad distribution in their stellar kinematics
Salvador Cardona-Barrero, Arianna Di Cintio, Christopher B. A. Brook +4
In recent years a new window on galaxy evolution opened, thanks to the increasing discovery of galaxies with a low surface brightness, such as Ultra Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs). The fo…
