On Synchronized Globular Cluster Formation over Supra-galactic Scales: A Virgo-Centaurus Group Connection

Juan Carlos Forte

This work reports the detection of a multi peaked colour pattern in the integrated colours distribution of globular clusters associated to the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4486, usi…

Field/Isolated lenticular galaxies with high values: the case of NGC 4546 and its globular cluster system

C. G. Escudero, F. R. Faifer, A. V. Smith Castelli +2

We present a photometric study of the field lenticular galaxy NGC 4546 using Gemini/GMOS imaging in g'r'i'z'. We perform a 2D image decomposition of the surface brightness distribu…

A Supra-galactic Conundrum: The Globular Clusters Colour Pattern in Virgo Galaxies

Juan C. Forte, Sergio A. Cellone, María E. De Rossi +8

The presence of systematic modulations in the colour distributions in composite samples of globular clusters associated with galaxies in the Virgo and Fornax clusters has been repo…

Young globular clusters in NGC 1316

Leandro A. Sesto, Favio R. Faifer, Analía V. Smith Castelli +2

We present multi-object spectroscopy of the inner zone of the globular cluster (GC) system associated with the intermediate-age merger remnant NGC 1316. Using the multi-object mode…

Tracing the Assembly History of NGC 1395 through its Globular Cluster System

C. G. Escudero, F. R. Faifer, A. V. Smith Castelli +4

We used deep Gemini-South/GMOS g'r'i'z' images to study the globular cluster (GC) system of the massive elliptical galaxy NGC 1395, located in the Eridanus supergroup. The photomet…

Deep MOS Spectroscopy of NGC 1316 Globular Clusters

Leandro A. Sesto, Favio R. Faifer, Juan C. Forte +1

The giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 is the brightest galaxy in the Fornax cluster, and displays a number of morphological features that might be interpreted as an intermediate age…
