Dwarf galaxies in the MATLAS Survey: Hubble Space Telescope observations of nuclear star clusters
Mélina Poulain, Francine R. Marleau, Pierre-Alain Duc +8
In dwarf galaxies, nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are believed to primarily form from the migration and merger of globular clusters (GCs), with a possible contribution from in-situ s…
Globular clusters in M104: Tracing kinematics and metallicities from the centre to the halo
Katja Fahrion, Michael A. Beasley, Eric Emsellem +4
As ancient star clusters, globular clusters (GCs) are regarded as powerful tracers of galaxy evolution and assembly. Due to their brightness and compact sizes, GCs are employed to…
Galaxies OBserved as Low-luminosity Identified Nebulae (GOBLIN): a catalog of 43,000 high-probability dwarf galaxy candidates in the UNIONS survey
Nick Heesters, David Chemaly, Oliver Müller +9
The detection of low surface brightness galaxies beyond the Local Group poses significant observational challenges, yet these faint systems are fundamental to our understanding of…
Evidence of star cluster migration and merger in dwarf galaxies
Mélina Poulain, Rory Smith, Pierre-Alain Duc +8
Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are the densest stellar systems in the Universe. They can be found at the center of all galaxy types, but tend to favor galaxies of intermediate stella…
Low Surface Brightness structures from annotated deep CFHT images: effects of the host galaxy's properties and environment
Elisabeth Sola, Pierre-Alain Duc, Mathias Urbano +20
Hierarchical galactic evolution models predict that mergers drive galaxy growth, producing low surface brightness (LSB) tidal features that trace galaxies' late assembly. These fai…
Euclid: Early Release Observations of diffuse stellar structures and globular clusters as probes of the mass assembly of galaxies in the Dorado group
M. Urbano, P. -A. Duc, T. Saifollahi +160
Deep surveys reveal tidal debris and associated compact stellar systems. Euclid's unique combination of capabilities (spatial resolution, depth, and wide sky coverage) will make it…
The Spatial Distribution of Globular Cluster Systems in Early Type Galaxies: Estimation Procedure and Catalog of Properties for Globular Cluster Systems Observed with Deep Imaging Surveys
Sungsoon Lim, Eric W. Peng, Patrick Côté +18
We present an analysis of the spatial distribution of globular cluster (GC) systems of 118 nearby early-type galaxies in the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) and Mass As…
Discovery of a Rare Group of Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Universe
Sanjaya Paudel, Cristiano G. Sabiu, Suk-Jin Yoon +3
We report the discovery of a rare isolated group of five dwarf galaxies located at z = 0.0086 ( = 36 Mpc). All member galaxies are star-forming, blue, and gas-rich with in…
