Optical SBFs of shell galaxies
I. Biscardi, G. Raimondo, M. Cantiello +1
We measure F814W Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBFs) for a sample of distant shell galaxies observed with the Advanced Camera for Survey (ACS) on board of HST. To evaluate the d…
Distances and Stellar Population properties using the SBF method
Michele Cantiello, Gabriella Raimondo, Enzo Brocato +1
We present some results on the study of stellar population properties and distances of galaxies using the SBF technique. The applications summarized here show that the Surface Brig…
Field Camera Unit for WSO-UV: Phase A Study Report
I. Pagano, F. Bacciotti, L. Bedin +33
World Space Observatory UltraViolet (WSO-UV) is a multipurpose space observatory, made by a 170 cm aperture telescope, capable of UV high-resolution spectroscopy, long slit low-res…
Surface Brightness Fluctuations from archival ACS images: a stellar population and distance study
Michele Cantiello, John P. Blakeslee, Gabriella Raimondo +2
We derive Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) and integrated magnitudes in the V- and I-bands using Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) archival data. The sample includes 14 galaxi…
Simulating CCD images of elliptical galaxies
M. Cantiello, G. Raimondo, E. Brocato +2
We introduce a procedure developed by the ``Teramo Stellar Populations Tools'' group (Teramo-SPoT), specifically optimized to obtain realistic simulations of CCD images of elliptic…
SBF: multi-wavelength data and models
M. Cantiello, G. Raimondo, J. P. Blakeslee +2
Recent applications have proved that the Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) technique is a reliable distance indicator in a wide range of distances, and a promising tool to anal…
