GEMINI-GMOS spectroscopy in the Antlia cluster

F. Faifer, A. Smith Castelli, L. P. Bassino +2

We present preliminary results of a spectroscopic study performed in the Antlia cluster through GEMINI-GMOS data. We derived new radial velocities that allow us to confirm the clus…

A common colour-magnitude relation from giant elliptical galaxies to globular clusters?

A. V. Smith Castelli, L. P. Bassino, T. Richtler +3

We discuss the existence of a common colour-magnitude relation (CMR) of metal-poor globular clusters and early-type galaxies, i.e. giant ellipticals, normal ellipticals and lenticu…

Galaxy populations in the Antlia cluster. II. Compact elliptical galaxy candidates

Analia V. Smith Castelli, Favio R. Faifer, Tom Richtler +1

We present a photometric analysis of four galaxies classified as compact elliptical (cE) galaxies in the FS90 Antlia Group catalogue. Only 6 members of this rare type of galaxies a…

A Quantitative Link Between Globular Clusters and the Stellar Halos in Elliptical Galaxies

J. C. Forte, F. R. Faifer, D. Geisler

This paper explores the quantitative connection between globular clusters and the diffuse stellar population of the galaxies they are associated with. Both NGC 1399 and NGC 4486 (M…

The Globular Cluster Kinematics and Galaxy Dark Matter Content of NGC 4649 (M60)

T. Bridges, K. Gebhardt, R. Sharples +7

From observations with the GMOS multi-slit spectrograph on the Gemini North telescope, we have obtained spectra for 39 globular cluster candidates in the Virgo giant elliptical gal…
