Mirach's Goblin: Discovery of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy behind the Andromeda galaxy
David Martinez-Delgado, Eva K. Grebel, Behnam Javanmardi +9
It is of broad interest for galaxy formation theory to carry out a full inventory of the numbers and properties of dwarf galaxies in the Local Volume, both satellites and isolated…
Revisiting the X-ray - Mass scaling relations of Early-type Galaxies with the Mass of their Globular Cluster Systems as a Proxy for the Total Galaxy Mass
Dong-Woo Kim, Nicholas James, Giuseppina Fabbiano +2
Using globular cluster (GC) kinematics and photometry data, we calibrate the scaling relation between the total galaxy mass (M_TOT including dark matter) and total globular cluster…
Extending the Globular Cluster System-Halo Mass Relation to the Lowest Galaxy Masses
Duncan A. Forbes, Justin I. Read, Mark Gieles +1
High mass galaxies, with halo masses , reveal a remarkable near-linear relation between their globular cluster (GC) system mass and their host galaxy…
Metallicity gradients in the globular cluster systems of early-type galaxies: In-situ and accreted components?
Duncan A. Forbes, Rhea-Silvia Remus
Massive early-type galaxies typically have two subpopulations of globular clusters (GCs) which often reveal radial colour (metallicity) gradients. Collating gradients from the lite…
Chromodynamical Analysis of Lenticular Galaxies using Globular Clusters and Planetary Nebulae
Emilio J. B. Zanatta, Arianna Cortesi, Ana L. Chies-Santos +7
Recovering the origins of lenticular galaxies can shed light on the understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, since they present properties that can be found in both ellipti…
Formation of S0s via disc accretion around high-redshift compact ellipticals
J. D. Diaz, Kenji Bekki, Duncan A. Forbes +3
We present hydrodynamical N-body models which demonstrate that elliptical galaxies can transform into S0s by acquiring a disc. In particular, we show that the merger with a massive…
