HI observations of the MATLAS dwarf and ultra-diffuse galaxies

Melina Poulain, Francine R. Marleau, Rebecca Habas +8

The presence of HI gas in galaxies is inextricably linked to their morphology and evolution. This paper aims to understand the HI content of the already identified 2210 dwarfs loca…

Ultra diffuse galaxies in the MATLAS low-to-moderate density fields

Francine R. Marleau, Rebecca Habas, Melina Poulain +10

Recent advances in deep dedicated imaging surveys over the past decade have uncovered a surprisingly large number of extremely faint low surface brightness galaxies with large phys…

Structure and morphology of the MATLAS dwarf galaxies and their central nuclei

Melina Poulain, Francine R. Marleau, Rebecca Habas +10

We present a photometric study of the dwarf galaxy population in the low to moderate density environments of the MATLAS (Mass Assembly of early-Type gaLAxies with their fine Struct…

The Pristine Dwarf-Galaxy survey -- IV. Probing the outskirts of the dwarf galaxy Boötes I

Nicolas Longeard, Pascale Jablonka, Anke Arentsen +12

We present a new spectroscopic study of the dwarf galaxy Bootes I (Boo I) with data from the Anglo-Australian Telescope and its AAOmega spectrograph together with the Two Degree Fi…

Fresh Insights on the Kinematics of M49's Globular Cluster System with MMT/Hectospec Spectroscopy

Matthew A. Taylor, Youkyung Ko, Patrick Côté +10

We present the first results of an MMT/Hectospec campaign to measure the kinematics of globular clusters (GCs) around M49 -- the brightest galaxy in the Virgo galaxy cluster, which…

A high occurrence of nuclear star clusters in faint Coma galaxies, and the roles of mass and environment

Emilio J. B. Zanatta, Rubén Sánchez-Janssen, Ana L. Chies-Santos +2

We use deep high resolution \textit{HST/ACS} imaging of two fields in the core of the Coma cluster to investigate the occurrence of nuclear star clusters (NSCs) in quiescent dwarf…
