LIGHTS. Limitations of Far-Infrared Tracers for Galactic Cirrus Mitigation in the Era of Ultra-Deep Imaging

Ouldouz Kaboud, Ignacio Trujillo, Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo +18

Current and forthcoming deep optical imaging surveys are reaching surface brightness levels fainter than 30 mag/arcsec, where Galactic cirrus emission becomes a significant con…

Global trends in morphology from massive to dwarf galaxies

Ilin Lazar, Sugata Kaviraj, Christopher J. Conselice +7

The morphological properties of dwarf galaxies (Mstar < 10^9.5 MSun) remain largely unexplored, particularly outside the local neighbourhood. We explore how morphology changes acro…

LIGHTS. A robust technique to identify galaxy edges

Giulia Golini, Ignacio Trujillo, Dennis Zaritsky +19

The LIGHTS survey is imaging galaxies at a depth and spatial resolution comparable to what the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will produce in 10 years (i.e., 31 mag/a…

Intra-Cluster Light as a Dynamical Clock for Galaxy Clusters: Insights from the MAGNETICUM, IllustrisTNG, Hydrangea and Horizon-AGN Simulations

Lucas C. Kimmig, Sarah Brough, Klaus Dolag +19

As the most massive nodes of the cosmic web, galaxy clusters represent the best probes of structure formation. Over time, they grow by accreting and disrupting satellite galaxies,…

UV LIGHTS. New tools for revealing the low surface brightness regime in the ultraviolet

Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo, Ignacio Trujillo, Giulia Golini +16

Ultra-deep optical surveys have reached unprecedented depths, facilitating the study of faint galactic structures. However, the ultraviolet bands, crucial for stellar population st…

LIGHTS. The extended point spread functions of the LIGHTS survey at the LBT

Nafise Sedighi, Zahra Sharbaf, Ignacio Trujillo +13

With the arrival of the next generation of ultra-deep optical imaging surveys reaching 30 mag/arcsec (3; 10"10"), the removal of scattered light due to th…

Assembly of the Intracluster Light in the Horizon-AGN Simulation

Harley J. Brown, Garreth Martin, Frazer R. Pearce +3

The diffuse stellar component of galaxy clusters made up of intergalactic stars is termed the intracluster light (ICL). Though there is a developing understanding of the mechanisms…

LIGHTS. Survey Overview and a Search for Low Surface Brightness Satellite Galaxies

Dennis Zaritsky, Giulia Golini, Richard Donnerstein +12

We present an overview of the LIGHTS (LBT Imaging of Galactic Halos and Tidal Structures) survey, which currently includes 25 nearby galaxies that are on average 1 mag faint…

The morphological mix of dwarf galaxies in the nearby Universe

Ilin Lazar, Sugata Kaviraj, Aaron E. Watkins +3

We use a complete, unbiased sample of 257 dwarf (10^8 MSun < Mstar < 10^9.5 MSun) galaxies at z < 0.08, in the COSMOS field, to study the morphological mix of the dwarf population…

Preparing for low surface brightness science with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory: A Comparison of Observable and Simulated Intracluster Light Fractions

Sarah Brough, Syeda Lammim Ahad, Yannick M. Bahe +13

Intracluster Light (ICL) provides an important record of the interactions galaxy clusters have undergone. However, we are limited in our understanding by our measurement methods. T…

A physically motivated framework to compare pair fractions of isolated low and high mass galaxies across cosmic time

Katie Chamberlain, Gurtina Besla, Ekta Patel +9

Low mass galaxy pair fractions are understudied, and it is unclear whether low mass pair fractions evolve in the same way as more massive systems over cosmic time. In the era of JW…
