Coupling between stellar and HI lopsidedness in Milky Way-type galaxies from the Auriga Superstars cosmological simulations
Arianna Dolfi, Facundo A. Gómez, Rebekka Bieri +5
Lopsidedness is common in disk galaxies, yet its origin and evolution remain unclear. Previous studies typically examined stellar and gas asymmetries separately, but a combined ana…
On the origin of counterrotating stellar disks in TNG50. I
M. C. Bugueño, Facundo A. Gómez, Arianna Dolfi +1
Understanding galaxy evolution is key to explaining the structures we observe in the present-day Universe. Counterrotating stellar disks (CRDs), i.e. co-spatial stellar disks rotat…
Tracing the origins of galaxy lopsidedness across cosmic time
Arianna Dolfi, Facundo A. Gomez, Antonela Monachesi +3
Current studies of large-scale asymmetries (i.e. lopsidedness) in the stellar density distribution of disk galaxies have mainly focused on the local Universe. Recent observations h…
A statistical study of lopsided galaxies using random forest
Valentina Fontirroig, Facundo A. Gomez, Marcelo Jaque Arancibia +2
Lopsided galaxies are late-type galaxies with a non-axisymmetric disk due to an uneven distribution of their stellar mass. Despite being a relatively common perturbation, several q…
Lopsidedness as a tracer of early galactic assembly history
Arianna Dolfi, Facundo A. Gomez, Antonela Monachesi +4
Large-scale asymmetries (i.e. lopsidedness) are a common feature in the stellar density distribution of nearby disk galaxies both in low- and high-density environments. In this wor…
A Trail of the Invisible: Blue Globular Clusters Trace the Radial Density Distribution of the Dark Matter -- Case Study of NGC 4278
Matthias Kluge, Rhea-Silvia Remus, Iurii V. Babyk +2
We present new, deep optical observations of the early-type galaxy NGC 4278, which is located in a small loose group. We find that the galaxy lacks fine substructure, i.e., it appe…
The present-day globular cluster kinematics of lenticular galaxies from the E-MOSAICS simulations and their relation to the galaxy assembly histories
Arianna Dolfi, Joel Pfeffer, Duncan A. Forbes +5
We study the present-day rotational velocity () and velocity dispersion () profiles of the globular cluster (GC) systems in a sample of 50 lenticular (S0) galaxies from…
The two formation pathways of S0 galaxies
Simon Deeley, Michael J. Drinkwater, Sarah M. Sweet +4
Despite their ubiquity throughout the Universe, the formation of S0 galaxies remains uncertain. Recent observations have revealed that S0 galaxies make up a diverse population whic…
The SLUGGS survey: combining stars, globular clusters and planetary nebulae to understand the assembly history of early-type galaxies from their large radii kinematics
A. Dolfi, D. A. Forbes, W. J. Couch +4
We investigate the kinematic properties of nine nearby early-type galaxies with evidence of a disk-like component. Three of these galaxies are located in the field, five in the gro…
The assembly history of the nearest S0 galaxy NGC 3115 from its kinematics out to six half-light radii
Arianna Dolfi, Duncan A. Forbes, Warrick J. Couch +6
Using new and archival data, we study the kinematic properties of the nearest field S0 galaxy, NGC 3115, out to half-light radii () from its stars (integrat…
