VST-SMASH: VST Survey of Mass Assembly and Structural Hierarchy I. Survey presentation and deep photometry of IC 5332: tracing the mass assembly in the challenging faintest-end regime
R. Ragusa, C. Tortora, L. Hunt +9
Understanding the formation and evolution of late type galaxies (LTG) requires deep imaging for tracing the faintest stellar components in their outskirts. Despite their crucial ro…
Star-Galaxy Classification in Deep LSST Data with Random Forest: A Pilot study on the Data Preview 1 Release
M. Gatto, V. Ripepi, M. Bellazzini +2
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will produce unprecedentedly deep and wide photometric catalogs, enabling transformative studies of faint stell…
Euclid: Early Release Observations -- The extended stellar component of the IC10 dwarf galaxy
F. Annibali, A. M. N. Ferguson, P. M. Sanchez-Alarcon +175
We present a detailed analysis of the old, extended stellar component of the Local Group dwarf galaxy IC 10 using deep resolved-star photometry in the VIS and NISP bands of the Euc…
Deep in the Fields of the Andromeda Halo: Discovery of the Pegasus VII dwarf galaxy in UNIONS
Simon E. T. Smith, Alan W. McConnachie, Stephen Gwyn +8
We present the newly discovered dwarf galaxy Pegasus VII (Peg VII), a member of the M31 sub-group which has been uncovered in the photometric catalogs from the Ultraviolet Nea…
Quantifying the Detectability of Milky Way Satellites with Image Simulations: a Case Study with KiDS
Shiyang Zhang, Hendrik Hildebrandt, Ziang Yan +6
Ultra-faint dwarf galaxies, which can be detected as resolved satellite systems of the Milky Way, are critical to understanding galaxy formation, evolution, and the nature of dark…
VST-SMASH: the VST Survey of Mass Assembly and Structural Hierarchy
Crescenzo Tortora, Rossella Ragusa, Massimiliano Gatto +21
The VLT Survey Telescope Survey of Mass Assembly and Structural Hierarchy (VST-SMASH) aims to detect tidal features and remnants around very nearby galaxies, a unique and essential…
Old massive clusters (and a nuclear star cluster?) in the tidal tails of NGC5238
M. Bellazzini, F. Annibali, M. Correnti +12
New, deep HST photometry allowed us to identify and study eight compact and bright (M_V< -5.8) star clusters in the outskirts of the star-forming isolated dwarf galaxy NGC5238 (M_*…
The "Yes, Magellanic Clouds Again" survey: preliminary results
M. Gatto, V. Ripepi, M. Tosi +4
We present preliminary findings from the photometric survey "Yes, Magellanic Clouds Again" (YMCA, PI: V. Ripepi), covering 110 square degrees in the outer regions of the Magellanic…
New Kids in Town. Sextans~II: a new stellar system in the outskirts of the Milky Way
Massimiliano Gatto, Michele Bellazzini, Crescenzo Tortora +9
We report on the discovery of a significant and compact over-density of old and metal-poor stars in the KiDS survey (data release 4). The discovery is confirmed by deeper HSC-SSC d…
