VEGAS-SSS. A VST survey of elliptical galaxies in the southern hemisphere: analysis of small stellar systems. Testing the methodology on the globular cluster system in NGC3115
Michele Cantiello, Massimo Capaccioli, Nicola Napolitano +11
We present a study of globular clusters (GCs) and other small stellar systems (SSSs) in the field of NGC3115, observed as part of the VEGAS imaging survey, carried out with the VST…
A Forming Wide Polar Ring Galaxy at z~0.05 in the VST Deep Field of the Fornax Cluster
E. Iodice, M. Capaccioli, M. Spavone +5
We present the first deep photometry of a good candidate for a forming polar ring galaxy at redshift z~0.05. This object, named FCSS J033710.0-354727, is a background galaxy in the…
A panoramic VISTA of the stellar halo of NGC 253
Laura Greggio, Marina Rejkuba, Oscar A. Gonzalez +5
Outskirts of large galaxies contain important information about the galaxy formation and assembly process, and resolved star count studies can probe the extremely low surface brigh…
