Chasing Gamma-Ray Signals from Binary Neutron Star Coalescences with the Cherenkov Telescope Array: Prospects and Observing Strategies

S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +457

The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo (GW170817), together with its electromagnetic counterpart, th…

Prospects for dark matter observations in dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory

K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +491

The dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) orbiting the Milky Way are widely regarded as systems supported by velocity dispersion against self-gravity, and as prime targets for the sear…

Carl Wirtz' article from 1924 in Astronomische Nachrichten on the radial motions of spiral nebulae

Tom Richtler

In the year 1924, a paper by Carl Wirtz appeared in Astronomische Nachrichten, entitled 'De Sitter's cosmology and the radial motion of spiral galaxies'. This paper and its author…

Galactic transient sources with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory

Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory Consortium

A wide variety of Galactic sources show transient emission at soft and hard X-ray energies: low- and high-mass X-ray binaries containing compact objects, isolated neutron stars exh…

Prospects for a survey of the Galactic plane with the Cherenkov Telescope Array

CTA Consortium

Approximately one hundred sources of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma rays are known in the Milky Way. A survey of the entire Galactic Plane in the energy range from a few tens of GeV…

Ultra-Compact Dwarfs around NGC 3258 in Antlia

Juan Pablo Caso, L. P. Bassino, T. Richtler +2

We present the first compact stellar systems with luminosities in the range of ultra-compact dwarfs (UCDs), discovered in the Antlia galaxy cluster (-10.5 < M_V < -11.6). The magni…

A large population of ultra-compact dwarf galaxies in the Hydra I cluster

I. Misgeld, S. Mieske, M. Hilker +3

We performed a large spectroscopic survey of compact, unresolved objects in the core of the Hydra I galaxy cluster (Abell 1060), with the aim of identifying ultra-compact dwarf gal…

Young Massive Clusters in Non-Interacting Galaxies

S. S. Larsen, J. P. Brodie, D. A. Hunter +1

Young star clusters with masses well in excess of 100.000 Msun have been observed not only in merger galaxies and large-scale starbursts, but also in fairly normal, undisturbed spi…

The brightness of SN 1991T and the uniformity of decline-rate and colour corrected absolute magnitudes of supernovae Ia

T. Richtler, J. B. Jensen, J. Tonry +2

We present a distance to NGC 4527, the host galaxy of the type Ia SN 1991T, measured by surface brightness fluctuations. This supernova has been labelled ``peculiar'' both on the g…
