Galaxy populations in the Antlia cluster. II. Compact elliptical galaxy candidates
Analia V. Smith Castelli, Favio R. Faifer, Tom Richtler +1
We present a photometric analysis of four galaxies classified as compact elliptical (cE) galaxies in the FS90 Antlia Group catalogue. Only 6 members of this rare type of galaxies a…
Galaxy populations in the Antlia cluster. I. Photometric properties of early-type galaxies
A. V. Smith Castelli, L. P. Bassino, T. Richtler +3
We present the first colour-magnitude relation (CMR) of early-type galaxies in the central region of the Antlia cluster, obtained from CCD wide-field photometry in the Washington p…
VLT photometry in the Antlia Cluster: the giant ellipticals NGC 3258 and NGC 3268 and their globular cluster systems
Lilia P. Bassino, Tom Richtler, Boris Dirsch
We present a deep VLT photometry in the regions surrounding the two dominant galaxies of the Antlia cluster, the giant ellipticals NGC 3258 and NGC 3268. We construct the luminosit…
The dark matter halo of NGC 1399 - CDM or MOND?
T. Richtler, Y. Schuberth, M. Hilker +3
Central galaxies in galaxy clusters may be key discriminants in the competition between the cold dark matter (CDM) paradigm and modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND). We investigate t…
Intra Cluster Globular Clusters around NGC 1399 in Fornax?
Y. Schuberth, T. Richtler, L. Bassino +1
We investigate whether the globular clusters (GCs) in the recently published sample of GCs in the Fornax cluster by Bergond and coworkers are indeed intra-cluster objects. We combi…
Globular Clusters at the Centre of the Fornax Cluster: Tracing Interactions Between Galaxies
L. P. Bassino, T. Richtler, F. R. Faifer +4
We present the combined results of two investigations: a large-scale study of the globular cluster system (GCS) around NGC 1399, the central galaxy of the Fornax cluster, and a stu…
