Red giants in the outer halo of the elliptical galaxy NGC 5128 / Centaurus A
Sarah A. Bird, Chris Flynn, William E. Harris +1
We used VIMOS on VLT to perform and band imaging of the outermost halo of NGC 5128 / Centaurus A (), 65 kpc from the galaxy's center and along the maj…
Globular Cluster Systems in Brightest Cluster Galaxies: A Near-Universal Luminosity Function?
William E. Harris, Warren Morningstar, Oleg Y. Gnedin +10
We present the first results from our HST Brightest Cluster Galaxy (BCG) survey of seven central supergiant cluster galaxies and their globular cluster (GC) systems. We measure a t…
The Effects of Orbital Inclination on the Scale Size and Evolution of Tidally Filling Star Clusters
Jeremy J. Webb, Alison Sills, William E. Harris +1
We have performed N-body simulations of tidally filling star clusters with a range of orbits in a Milky Way-like potential to study the effects of orbital inclination and eccentric…
The Effect of Orbital Eccentricity on the Dynamical Evolution of Star Clusters
Jeremy J. Webb, Nathan Leigh, Alison Sills +2
We use N-body simulations to explore the influence of orbital eccentricity on the dynamical evolution of star clusters. Specifically we compare the mass loss rate, velocity dispers…
The pre-processing of subhaloes in SDSS groups and clusters
Annie Hou, Laura C. Parker, William E. Harris
We investigate pre-processing using the observed quenched fraction of group and cluster galaxies in the Yang et al. (2007) SDSS-DR7 group catalogue in the redshift range of 0.01 <…
Dark Matter Halos in Galaxies and Globular Cluster Populations
Michael J. Hudson, Gretchen L. Harris, William E. Harris
We combine a new, comprehensive database for globular cluster populations in all types of galaxies with a new calibration of galaxy halo masses based entirely on weak lensing. Corr…
