FORECASTOR -- I. Finding Optics Requirements and Exposure times for the Cosmological Advanced Survey Telescope for Optical and UV Research mission
Isaac Cheng, Tyrone E. Woods, Patrick Côté +21
The Cosmological Advanced Survey Telescope for Optical and ultraviolet Research (CASTOR) is a proposed Canadian-led 1m-class space telescope that will carry out ultraviolet and blu…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). III. A Catalog of Surface Brightness Fluctuation Distances and the Three-Dimensional Distribution of Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
Michele Cantiello, John P. Blakeslee, Patrick Côté +9
The surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) method is a robust and efficient way of measuring distances to galaxies containing evolved stellar populations. Although many recent applic…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XXVII.The Size and Structure of Globular Cluster Systems and their Connection to Dark Matter Halos
Sungsoon Lim, Eric W. Peng, Patrick Côté +18
We study the size and structure of globular clusters (GC) systems of 118 early-type galaxies from the NGVS, MATLAS, and ACSVCS surveys. Fitting Sérsic profiles, we investigate the…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XXXVII. Distant RR Lyrae Stars and the Milky Way Stellar Halo out to 300 kpc
Yuting Feng, Puragra Guhathakurta, Eric W. Peng +6
RR Lyrae stars are standard candles with characteristic photometric variability and serve as powerful tracers of Galactic structure, substructure, accretion history, and dark matte…
