LIGHTS. Limitations of Far-Infrared Tracers for Galactic Cirrus Mitigation in the Era of Ultra-Deep Imaging
Ouldouz Kaboud, Ignacio Trujillo, Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo +18
Current and forthcoming deep optical imaging surveys are reaching surface brightness levels fainter than 30 mag/arcsec, where Galactic cirrus emission becomes a significant con…
LIGHTS. The Thin Encircling Stellar Stream of NGC 3938
Dennis Zaritsky, Jacob Nibauer, Giulia Golini +17
We present a stellar stream found in images of the nearby, nearly face-on, late-type galaxy, NGC 3938 obtained for the LBT Imaging of Galactic Halos and Tidal Structures (LIGHTS) s…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake: A Low Surface Brightness Science Case
Mireia Montes, Ignacio Trujillo, David Martínez Delgado +27
The Extragalactic Low Surface Brightness (LSB, mag/arcsec) Universe represents a crucial, yet largely unseen, frontier in modern astrophysics. This faint realm…
LIGHTS. A robust technique to identify galaxy edges
Giulia Golini, Ignacio Trujillo, Dennis Zaritsky +19
The LIGHTS survey is imaging galaxies at a depth and spatial resolution comparable to what the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will produce in 10 years (i.e., 31 mag/a…
UV LIGHTS. New tools for revealing the low surface brightness regime in the ultraviolet
Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo, Ignacio Trujillo, Giulia Golini +16
Ultra-deep optical surveys have reached unprecedented depths, facilitating the study of faint galactic structures. However, the ultraviolet bands, crucial for stellar population st…
LIGHTS. The extended point spread functions of the LIGHTS survey at the LBT
Nafise Sedighi, Zahra Sharbaf, Ignacio Trujillo +13
With the arrival of the next generation of ultra-deep optical imaging surveys reaching 30 mag/arcsec (3; 10"10"), the removal of scattered light due to th…
LIGHTS. Survey Overview and a Search for Low Surface Brightness Satellite Galaxies
Dennis Zaritsky, Giulia Golini, Richard Donnerstein +12
We present an overview of the LIGHTS (LBT Imaging of Galactic Halos and Tidal Structures) survey, which currently includes 25 nearby galaxies that are on average 1 mag faint…
Structure of Early-Type Galaxies: 2D Fit of the Light Distribution for a Complete Volume-Limited Sample
E. Iodice, M. D'Onofrio, M. Capaccioli
We outline the results of a two-dimensional (2D) fit of the light distribution of early-type galaxies belonging to a complete volume-limited sample, and briefly discuss the signifi…
