Light element variations within the different age-metallicity populations in the nucleus of the Sagittarius dwarf
Alison Sills, Emanuele Dalessandro, Mario Cadelano +2
The cluster M54 lies at the centre of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy, and therefore may be the closest example of a nuclear star cluster. Either in-situ star formation, in…
A deep view into the nucleus of the Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy with MUSE. I. Data and stellar population characterization
Mayte Alfaro-Cuello, Nikolay Kacharov, Nadine Neumayer +9
The center of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Sgr dSph) hosts a nuclear star cluster, M54, which is the only galaxy nucleus that can be resolved into individual stars at o…
Constraining nuclear star cluster formation using MUSE-AO observations of the early-type galaxy FCC47
Katja Fahrion, Mariya Lyubenova, Glenn van de Ven +12
Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are found in at least 70% of all galaxies, but their formation path is still unclear. In the most common scenarios, NSCs form in-situ from the galaxy's…
A metal-poor ultra compact dwarf galaxy at a kiloparsec distance from the low-mass elliptical galaxy FCC47
Katja Fahrion, Iskren Georgiev, Michael Hilker +7
Photometric surveys of galaxy clusters have revealed a large number of ultra compact dwarfs (UCDs) around predominantly massive elliptical galaxies. Their origin is still debated a…
