Intra-cluster patches of baryons in the core of the Fornax cluster

E. Iodice, M. Spavone, M. Cantiello +12

In the core of the Fornax cluster, on the West side of NGC1399, we have detected a previously unknown region of intra-cluster light (ICL). It is made up by several faint ($μ_r \sim…

Tidal origin of NGC 1427A in the Fornax cluster

K. Lee-Waddell, P. Serra, B. Koribalski +8

We present new HI observations from the Australia Telescope Compact Array and deep optical imaging from OmegaCam on the VLT Survey Telescope of NGC 1427A, an arrow-shaped dwarf irr…

Connecting traces of galaxy evolution: the missing core mass -- morphological fine structure relation

P. Bonfini, T. Bitsakis, A. Zezas +5

Deep exposure imaging of early-type galaxies (ETGs) are revealing the second-order complexity of these objects, which have been long considered uniform, dispersion-supported sphero…

The Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) with the VST: III. Low Surface Brightness (LSB) dwarfs and Ultra Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs) in the center of the Fornax cluster

A. Venhola, R. Peletier, E. Laurikainen +16

Studies of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in nearby clusters have revealed a sub-population of extremely diffuse galaxies with central surface brightness > 24 mag…

VEGAS: A VST Early-type GAlaxy Survey. II. Photometric study of giant ellipticals and their stellar halos

M. Spavone, M. Capaccioli, N. R. Napolitano +8

Observations of diffuse starlight in the outskirts of galaxies are thought to be a fundamental source of constraints on the cosmological context of galaxy assembly in the CDM mo…

The Fornax Deep Survey with VST. II. Fornax A: a two-phase assembly caught on act

E. Iodice, M. Spavone, M. Capaccioli +14

As part of the Fornax Deep Survey with the ESO VLT Survey Telescope, we present new and bands mosaics of the SW group of the Fornax cluster. It covers an area of $3 \times…
