Euclid: Calibrating distances from surface brightness fluctuations with Early Release Observations of the Fornax cluster
R. Habas, M. Cantiello, G. Riccio +169
Surface brightness fluctuations (SBF), the pixel-to-pixel variations in flux that arise from the statistical distribution of stars in galaxy images, provide a powerful tool to meas…
Constraining the population of dark matter halo shapes using hierarchical inference with extragalactic stellar streams
David Chemaly, Elisabeth Sola, Vasily Belokurov +4
Stellar streams, the debris of tidally disrupted satellites, trace their host's gravitational potential and thus probe dark matter halo structure. While six-dimensional phase-space…
Euclid preparation LXXIX. Using mock low surface brightness dwarf galaxies to probe Euclid Wide Survey detection capabilities
Euclid Collaboration, M. Urbano, P. -A. Duc +313
Local Universe dwarf galaxies can serve as both cosmological and mass assembly probes. Deep surveys have enabled the study of these objects down to the low surface brightness (LSB)…
Living the stream: Properties and progenitors of tidal shells and streams around galaxies from Magneticum
Johannes Stoiber, Lucas M. Valenzuela, Rhea-Silvia Remus +4
Stellar shells and streams are remnants of satellite galaxies visible around galaxies. Advances in low-surface-brightness observations and increasing resolution of cosmological sim…
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…
Euclid: Early Release Observations of ram-pressure stripping in the Perseus cluster. Detection of parsec scale star formation with in the low surface brightness stripped tails of UGC 2665 and MCG +07-07-070
Koshy George, A. Boselli, J. -C. Cuillandre +177
Euclid is delivering optical and near-infrared imaging data over 14,000 deg on the sky at spatial resolution and surface brightness levels that can be used to understand the mo…
