The Milky Way's nuclear stellar disc: A dynamically cool and metal-rich component formed from the Central Molecular Zone?
M. Schultheis, T. K. Fritz, G. Nandakumar +10
The nuclear stellar disc (NSD) is, together with the nuclear star cluster (NSC) and the central massive black hole, one of the main components in the central parts of our Milky Way…
A KMOS survey of the nuclear disk of the Milky Way I: Survey design and metallicities
Tobias K. Fritz, Lee Patrick, Anja Feldmeier-Krause +7
In the central few degrees of the bulge of the Milky Way there is a flattened structure of gas, dust and stars (the central molecular zone) similar to nuclear disks in other galaxi…
On the origin of a rotating metal-poor stellar population in the Milky Way Nuclear Cluster
Manuel Arca Sedda, Alessia Gualandris, Tuan Do +3
We explore the origin of a population of stars recently detected in the inner parsec of the Milky Way Nuclear Cluster (NC), which exhibit sub-solar metallicity and a higher rotatio…
Revealing the Formation of the Milky Way Nuclear Star Cluster via Chemo-Dynamical Modeling
Tuan Do, Gregory David Martinez, Wolfgang Kerzendorf +4
The Milky Way nuclear star cluster (MW NSC) has been used as a template to understand the origin and evolution of galactic nuclei and the interaction of nuclear star clusters with…
Measuring the stellar population parameters of the early-type galaxy NGC 3923 -- The challenging measurement of the initial mass function
A. Feldmeier-Krause, I. Lonoce, W. L. Freedman
Recent studies of early-type galaxies have suggested that the initial mass function (IMF) slope is bottom-heavy, i.e. they contain a larger fraction of low-mass stars than the Milk…
Shadows in the Dark: Low-Surface-Brightness Galaxies Discovered in the Dark Energy Survey
D. Tanoglidis, A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Wei +67
We present a catalog of 23,790 extended low-surface-brightness galaxies (LSBGs) identified in from the first three years of imaging data from the Dark Energy Survey…
