Why do some Ultra Diffuse Galaxies have Rich Globular Cluster Systems?

Duncan A. Forbes, Maria Luisa Buzzo, Anna Ferre-Mateu +4

Some ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) reveal many more globular clusters (GCs) than classical dwarf galaxies of the same stellar mass. These UDGs, with a mass in their GC system (M$_{…

The multiple classes of ultra-diffuse galaxies: Can we tell them apart?

Maria Luisa Buzzo, Duncan A. Forbes, Thomas H. Jarrett +9

This study compiles stellar populations and internal properties of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) to highlight correlations with their local environment, globular cluster (GC) richn…

Testing the Bullet Dwarf Collision Scenario in the NGC 1052 Group Through Morphologies and Stellar Populations

Yimeng Tang, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Pieter G. van Dokkum +8

NGC 1052-DF2 and -DF4 are two ultra-diffuse galaxies that have been reported as deficient in dark matter and associated with the same galaxy group. Recent findings suggest that DF2…

A Catalogue and Analysis of Ultra-Diffuse Galaxy Spectroscopic Properties

Jonah S. Gannon, Anna Ferré-Mateu, Duncan A. Forbes +3

In order to help facilitate the future study of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) we compile a catalogue of their spectroscopic properties. Using it, we investigate some of the biases…

Analysis of Galaxies at the Extremes: A Kinematic Analysis of the Virgo Cluster Dwarfs VCC 9 and VCC 1448 using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager

Jonah S. Gannon, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +8

We present spatially resolved Keck Cosmic Web Imager stellar spectroscopy of the Virgo cluster dwarf galaxies VCC 9 and VCC 1448. These galaxies have similar stellar masses and lar…

Origin of the correlation between stellar kinematics and globular cluster system richness in ultra-diffuse galaxies

Joel Pfeffer, Steven R. Janssens, Maria Luisa Buzzo +9

Observational surveys have found that the dynamical masses of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) correlate with the richness of their globular cluster (GC) system. This could be explain…

Constraining the stellar populations of ultra-diffuse galaxies in the MATLAS survey using spectral energy distribution fitting

Maria Luisa Buzzo, Duncan A. Forbes, Thomas H. Jarrett +12

We use spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting to place constraints on the stellar populations of 59 ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the low-to-moderate density fields of the M…
