The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XXXV. First Kinematical Clues of Overly-Massive Dark Matter Halos in Several Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster

Elisa Toloba, Laura V. Sales, Sungsoon Lim +8

We present Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopy of the first complete sample of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the Virgo cluster. We select all UDGs in Virgo that contain at least 10 globula…

UVIT view of NGC 5291: Ongoing star formation in tidal dwarf galaxies at ~ 0.35 kpc resolution

Rakhi R, Geethika Santhosh, Prajwel Joseph +14

NGC 5291, an early-type galaxy surrounded by a giant HI ring, is believed to be formed from collision with another galaxy. Several star forming complexes and tidal dwarf galaxies a…

Ultraviolet imaging observations of three jellyfish galaxies: Star formation suppression in the centre and ongoing star formation in stripped tails

Koshy George, B. M. Poggianti, Neven Tomičić +13

Spiral galaxies undergo strong ram-pressure effects when they fall into the galaxy cluster potential. As a consequence, their gas is stripped to form extended tails within which st…

Globular Cluster UVIT legacy Survey (GlobUleS) III. Omega Centauri in Far-Ultraviolet

Deepthi S. Prabhu, Annapurni Subramaniam, Snehalata Sahu +21

We present the first comprehensive study of the most massive globular cluster Omega Centauri in the far-ultraviolet (FUV) extending from the center to ~ 28% of the tidal radius usi…

Deepest far ultraviolet view of a central field in the Coma cluster by AstroSat UVIT

Smriti Mahajan, Kulinder Pal Singh, Joseph E. Postma +3

We present analysis of the far ultraviolet (FUV) emission of sources in the central region of the Coma cluster (z=0.023) using the data taken by the UVIT aboard the multi-wavelengt…

The Color Gradients of the Globular Cluster Systems in M87 and M49

Yiming Wu, Chengze Liu, Eric W. Peng +8

Combining data from the ACS Virgo Cluster Survey (ACSVCS) and the Next Generation Virgo cluster Survey (NGVS), we extend previous studies of color gradients of the globular cluster…

The Distance and Dynamical History of the Virgo Cluster Ultradiffuse Galaxy VCC 615

J. Christopher Mihos, Patrick R. Durrell, Elisa Toloba +6

We use deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging to derive a distance to the Virgo Cluster ultradiffuse galaxy (UDG) VCC 615 using the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) distance estimat…
