Infrared Surface Brightness Fluctuation Distances for MASSIVE and Type Ia Supernova Host Galaxies
Joseph B. Jensen, John P. Blakeslee, Chung-Pei Ma +9
We measured high-quality surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) distances for a sample of 63 massive early-type galaxies using the WFC3/IR camera on the Hubble Space Telescope. The m…
Early-type galaxies at z~1.3. IV. Scaling relations in different environments
A. Raichoor, S. Mei, S. A. Stanford +15
We present the Kormendy and mass-size relations for early-type galaxies (ETGs) as a function of environment at z~1.3. Our sample includes 76 visually classified ETGs with masses 10…
The Color-Magnitude Relation for Metal-Poor Globular Clusters in M87: Confirmation From Deep HST/ACS Imaging
Eric W. Peng, Andres Jordan, John P. Blakeslee +6
Metal-poor globular clusters (GCs) are our local link to the earliest epochs of star formation and galaxy building. Studies of extragalactic GC systems using deep, high-quality ima…
The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey XV. The Formation Efficiencies of Globular Clusters in Early-Type Galaxies: The Effects of Mass and Environment
Eric W. Peng, Andres Jordan, Patrick Cote +8
The fraction of stellar mass contained in globular clusters (GCs), also measured by number as the specific frequency, is a fundamental quantity that reflects both a galaxy's early…
Trends in the Globular Cluster Luminosity Function of Early-Type Galaxies
Andres Jordan, Dean E. McLaughlin, Patrick Cote +8
We present results from a study of the globular cluster luminosity function (GCLF) in a sample of 89 early-type galaxies observed as part of the ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. Using a G…
The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. VIII. The Nuclei of Early-Type Galaxies
Patrick Cote, Slawomir Piatek, Laura Ferrarese +9
(Abridged) The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey is an HST program to obtain high-resolution, g and z-band images for 100 early-type members of the Virgo Cluster, spanning a range of ~460 i…
