GEMINI-GMOS spectroscopy in the Antlia cluster
F. Faifer, A. Smith Castelli, L. P. Bassino +2
We present preliminary results of a spectroscopic study performed in the Antlia cluster through GEMINI-GMOS data. We derived new radial velocities that allow us to confirm the clus…
A common colour-magnitude relation from giant elliptical galaxies to globular clusters?
A. V. Smith Castelli, L. P. Bassino, T. Richtler +3
We discuss the existence of a common colour-magnitude relation (CMR) of metal-poor globular clusters and early-type galaxies, i.e. giant ellipticals, normal ellipticals and lenticu…
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…
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…
