AMIGA project: Quantification of the isolation of 950 CIG galaxies
S. Verley, S. Leon, L. Verdes-Montenegro +7
The role of the environment on galaxy evolution is still not fully understood. In order to quantify and set limits on the role of nurture one must identify and study a sample of is…
Stellar Population Constraints on the Dark Matter Content and Origin of Ultra-Compact Dwarf Galaxies
Igor Chilingarian, Veronique Cayatte, Gilles Bergond
We analyse intermediate-resolution VLT FLAMES/Giraffe spectra of six ultra-compact dwarf (UCD) galaxies in the Fornax cluster. We obtained velocity dispersions and stellar populati…
The AMIGA sample of isolated galaxies. VI. Radio continuum properties of isolated galaxies: a very radio quiet sample
S. Leon, L. Verdes-Montenegro, J. Sabater +7
The study of the radio properties of the AMIGA sample is intended to characterize the radio continuum emission for a sample least affected by local environment, thus providing a re…
[OIII] 5007 Emission from the Black-Hole X-ray Binary in a NGC 4472 Globular Cluster
Stephen E. Zepf, Thomas J. Maccarone, Gilles Bergond +3
We present the discovery of [OIII] 5007 emission associated with the black hole X-ray binary recently identified in a globular cluster in the Virgo elliptical galaxy NGC 4472. This…
The AMIGA sample of isolated galaxies. V. Quantification of the isolation
S. Verley, S. Leon, L. Verdes-Montenegro +8
The AMIGA project aims to build a well defined and statistically significant reference sample of isolated galaxies in order to estimate the environmental effects on the formation a…
The AMIGA sample of isolated galaxies. IV. A catalogue of neighbours around isolated galaxies
S. Verley, S. C. Odewahn, L. Verdes-Montenegro +8
Studies of the effects of environment on galaxy properties and evolution require well defined control samples. Such isolated galaxy samples have up to now been small or poorly defi…
