A spectroscopic census of the Fornax cluster and beyond: preparing for next generation surveys

Natasha Maddox, Paolo Serra, Aku Venhola +3

The Fornax cluster is the nearest, large cluster in the southern sky, and is currently experiencing active assembly of mass. It is thus the target of a number of ongoing observing…

Neutral hydrogen gas within and around NGC 1316

P. Serra, F. M. Maccagni, D. Kleiner +20

We present MeerKAT observations of neutral hydrogen gas (HI) in the nearby merger remnant NGC 1316 (Fornax A), the brightest member of a galaxy group which is falling into the Forn…

Constraining nuclear star cluster formation using MUSE-AO observations of the early-type galaxy FCC47

Katja Fahrion, Mariya Lyubenova, Glenn van de Ven +12

Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are found in at least 70% of all galaxies, but their formation path is still unclear. In the most common scenarios, NSCs form in-situ from the galaxy's…

An Ultra diffuse Galaxy in the NGC 5846 group from the VEGAS survey

Duncan A. Forbes, Jonah Gannon, Warrick J Couch +5

Many ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) have now been identified in clusters of galaxies. However, the number of nearby UDGs suitable for detailed follow-up remain rare. Our aim is to b…

The Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) with VST. VI. Optical properties of the dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster

Aku Venhola, Reynier Peletier, Eija Laurikainen +18

The Fornax Deep Survey Dwarf galaxy Catalog (FDSDC) includes 564 dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster and the in-falling Fornax A subgroup. We use the FDSDC galaxies for statistica…

VEGAS: a VST Early-type GAlaxy Survey. IV. NGC 1533, IC 2038 and IC 2039: an interacting triplet in the Dorado group

A. Cattapan, M. Spavone, E. Iodice +10

This paper focuses on NGC 1533 and the pair IC 2038 and IC 2039 in Dorado a nearby, clumpy, still un-virialized group. We obtained their surface photometry from deep OmegaCAM@ESO-V…
