Low surface brightness dwarf galaxies and their globular cluster populations around the low-density environment of our closest S0 NGC3115
Marco A. Canossa-Gosteinski, Ana L. Chies-Santos, Cristina Furlanetto +12
Understanding faint dwarf galaxies is fundamental to the development of a robust theory of galaxy formation on small scales. Since the discovery of a population of ultra diffuse ga…
A high occurrence of nuclear star clusters in faint Coma galaxies, and the roles of mass and environment
Emilio J. B. Zanatta, Rubén Sánchez-Janssen, Ana L. Chies-Santos +2
We use deep high resolution \textit{HST/ACS} imaging of two fields in the core of the Coma cluster to investigate the occurrence of nuclear star clusters (NSCs) in quiescent dwarf…
Chromodynamical Analysis of Lenticular Galaxies using Globular Clusters and Planetary Nebulae
Emilio J. B. Zanatta, Arianna Cortesi, Ana L. Chies-Santos +7
Recovering the origins of lenticular galaxies can shed light on the understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, since they present properties that can be found in both ellipti…
