The Fornax Cluster VLT Spectroscopic Survey - V. Mass modelling of the BCG NGC 1399 out to 150 kpc

Avinash Chaturvedi, Nicola R. Napolitano, Michael Hilker +7

NGC 1399, the bright central galaxy of the Fornax cluster, hosts an extensive population of globular clusters (GCs) extending beyond 200 kpc into its outer halo, about 6.5 effectiv…

Supermassive black holes in six triaxial galaxies: Insights from SINFONI and MUSE observations

Sabine Thater, Avinash Chaturvedi, Davor Krajnovic +5

Dynamical modelling can be used to constrain the masses of central black holes; however, modelling massive galaxies is challenging due to their complexity. In this work, we report…

The complex history of NGC 1427A revealed by its star clusters and star formation history

Katja Fahrion, Michael Hilker, Avinash Chaturvedi +2

Star-forming low-mass galaxies in the dense environments of galaxy clusters provide opportunities to study how environmental effects such as ram-pressure stripping, tidal interacti…

The Spatial Distribution of Intra-Cluster Globular Clusters in the Fornax Cluster

Raffaele D'Abrusco, Marco Mirabile, Michele Cantiello +6

We investigate the spatial distribution of the Intra-Cluster Globular Clusters (ICGCs) detected in the core of the Fornax galaxy cluster. By separately modeling different component…

Searching for supermassive black holes binaries within SRG/eROSITA-De I: Properties of the X-ray selected candidates

D. Tubín-Arenas, M. Krumpe, D. Homan +20

Abridged: Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) separated by (sub)-pc scales represent one of the latest stages of hierarchical galaxy assembly. However, many of these objects…

The S-PLUS Fornax Project (S+FP): Mapping globular clusters systems within 5 virial radii around NGC 1399

Luis Lomelí-Núñez, A. Cortesi, A. V. Smith Castelli +25

We present the largest sample (13,000 candidates, 3000 of wich are bona-fide candidates) of globular cluster (GCs) candidates reported in the Fornax Cluster so far. The…

The SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey: View of the Fornax galaxy cluster

T. H. Reiprich, A. Veronica, F. Pacaud +18

The Fornax cluster is one of the closest X-ray-bright galaxy clusters. Previous observations of the intracluster medium were limited to less than R500. We aim to significantly exte…

Observational predictions for the survival of atomic hydrogen in simulated Fornax-like galaxy clusters

Avinash Chaturvedi, Stephanie Tonnesen, Greg L. Bryan +4

The presence of dense, neutral hydrogen clouds in the hot, diffuse intra-group and intra-cluster medium is an important clue to the physical processes controlling the survival of c…

The galactic acceleration scale is imprinted on globular cluster systems of early-type galaxies of most masses and on red and blue globular cluster subpopulations

Michal Bílek, Michael Hilker, Florent Renaud +3

Context. Globular clusters (GCs) carry information about the formation histories and gravitational fields of their host galaxies. Bílek et al. (2019, BSR19 hereafter) reported that…

Imprint of the galactic acceleration scale on globular cluster systems: Galaxies in the Fornax Cluster

Michal Bílek, Michael Hilker, Florent Renaud +3

Dark matter is required in galaxies at galactocentric radii that are larger than the -radius, which is where the gravitational acceleration generated by baryons of the galaxy…

The Fornax Cluster VLT Spectroscopic Survey IV -- Cold kinematical substructures in the Fornax core from COSTA

N. R. Napolitano, M. Gatto, C. Spiniello +15

The COld STream finder Algorithm (COSTA) is a novel algorithm to find streams in the phase space of planetary nebulae (PNe) and globular cluster (GCs) populations. COSTA isolates g…

The Fornax Cluster VLT Spectroscopic Survey III -- Kinematical characterisation of globular clusters across the Fornax galaxy cluster

Avinash Chaturvedi, Michael Hilker, Michele Cantiello +7

The Fornax cluster provides an unparalleled opportunity to investigate in detail the formation and evolution of early-type galaxies in a dense environment. We aim at kinematically…
