The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) Science White Paper
Vincenzo Mainieri, Richard I. Anderson, Jarle Brinchmann +214
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is proposed as a new facility dedicated to the efficient delivery of spectroscopic surveys. This white paper summarises the initial con…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). III. A Catalog of Surface Brightness Fluctuation Distances and the Three-Dimensional Distribution of Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
Michele Cantiello, John P. Blakeslee, Patrick Côté +9
The surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) method is a robust and efficient way of measuring distances to galaxies containing evolved stellar populations. Although many recent applic…
NSCs from groups to clusters: A catalogue of dwarf galaxies in the Shapley Supercluster and the role of environment in galaxy nucleation
Emilio J. B. Zanatta, Ruben Sanchéz-Janssen, Rafael S. de Souza +2
Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are dense star clusters located at the centre of galaxies spanning a wide range of masses and morphologies. Analysing NSC occupation statistics in diff…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XXVII.The Size and Structure of Globular Cluster Systems and their Connection to Dark Matter Halos
Sungsoon Lim, Eric W. Peng, Patrick Côté +18
We study the size and structure of globular clusters (GC) systems of 118 early-type galaxies from the NGVS, MATLAS, and ACSVCS surveys. Fitting Sérsic profiles, we investigate the…
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…
An evolutionary continuum from nucleated dwarf galaxies to star clusters
Kaixiang Wang, Eric W. Peng, Chengze Liu +21
Systematic studies have revealed hundreds of ultra-compact dwarf galaxies (UCDs) in the nearby Universe. With half-light radii of approximately 10-100 parsecs and stellar mas…
