Clash of Titans: a MUSE dynamical study of the extreme cluster merger SPT-CL J0307-6225
D. Hernández-Lang, A. Zenteno, A. Diaz-Ocampo +23
We present VLT/MUSE spectroscopy, along with archival Gemini/GMOS spectroscopy, Magellan/Megacam imaging, and Chandra X-ray emission for SPT-CL J0305-6225, a z=0.58 major merging g…
Raman-scattered laser guide star photons to monitor the scatter of astronomical telescope mirrors
F. P. A. Vogt, J. L. Álvarez, D. Bonaccini Calia +26
The first observations of laser guide star photons Raman-scattered by air molecules above the Very Large Telescope (VLT) were reported in June 2017. The initial detection came from…
Mapping the Kinematically Decoupled Core in NGC 1407 with MUSE
Evelyn J. Johnston, George K. T. Hau, Lodovico Coccato +1
Studies of the kinematics of NGC 1407 have revealed complex kinematical structure, consisting of the outer galaxy, an embedded disc within a radius of arcsec, and a kinema…
A 3.5-million Solar Masses Black Hole in the Centre of the Ultracompact Dwarf Galaxy Fornax UCD3
Anton V. Afanasiev, Igor V. Chilingarian, Steffen Mieske +16
The origin of ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs), a class of compact stellar systems discovered two decades ago, still remains a matter of debate. Recent discoveries of central supermassiv…
GASP IX. Jellyfish galaxies in phase-space: an orbital study of intense ram-pressure stripping in clusters
Yara L. Jaffé, Bianca M. Poggianti, Alessia Moretti +11
It is well known that galaxies falling into clusters can experience gas stripping due to ram-pressure by the intra-cluster medium (ICM). The most spectacular examples are galaxies…
Ram pressure feeding super-massive black holes
Bianca M. Poggianti, Yara L. Jaffé, Alessia Moretti +10
When supermassive black holes at the center of galaxies accrete matter (usually gas), they give rise to highly energetic phenomena named Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). A number of p…
