A Normal Abundance of Faint Satellites in the Fossil Group NGC 6482
S. Lieder, S. Mieske, R. Sánchez-Janssen +3
Fossil groups are considered the end product in a galaxy group's evolution -- a massive central galaxy that dominates the luminosity budget of the group, as the outcome of efficien…
Larger sizes of massive quiescent early-type galaxies in clusters than in the field at 0.8 < z < 1.5
L. Delaye, M. Huertas-Company, S. Mei +13
[abridged] The mass-size relation of early-type galaxies (ETGs) has been largely studied in the last years to probe the mass assembly of the most massive objects in the Universe. I…
The importance of major mergers in the build up of stellar mass in brightest cluster galaxies at z=1
C. Lidman, G. Iacobuta, A. E. Bauer +22
Recent independent results from numerical simulations and observations have shown that brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) have increased their stellar mass by a factor of almost two…
The relation between bar formation, galaxy luminosity, and environment
E. M. Corsini, J. Mendez-Abreu, R. Sanchez-Janssen +2
We derive the bar fraction in three different environments ranging from the field to Virgo and Coma clusters, covering an unprecedentedly large range of galaxy luminosities (or, eq…
A Virtual Observatory Census to Address Dwarfs Origins. AVOCADO - I. Science goals, sample selection and analysis tools
R. Sánchez-Janssen, R. Amorín, M. García-Vargas +9
(Abridged) AVOCADO aims at establishing firm conclusions on the formation and evolution of dwarf galaxies by constructing and analysing a homogeneous, multiwavelength dataset for a…
