A spectroscopic measure of the star-formation rate density in dwarf galaxies at z~1
G. T. Davies, David Gilbank, Karl Glazebrook +7
We use a K-selected (22.5 < K_AB < 24.0) sample of dwarf galaxies (8.4 < log(M*/Msun) < 10) at 0.89<z<1.15 in the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS) to measure their contribution to t…
The Outer Halo Globular Clusters of M31
A. Alves-Brito, D. A. Forbes, J. T. Mendel +2
We present Keck/HIRES spectra of 3 globular clusters in the outer halo of M31, at projected distances beyond ~80 kpc from M31. The measured recession velocities for all 3 globular…
An Ultra Compact Dwarf around the Sombrero galaxy (M104): the Nearest Massive UCD
George K. T. Hau, Lee R. Spitler, Duncan A. Forbes +5
We report the discovery of an Ultra Compact Dwarf (UCD) associated with the Sombrero galaxy (M104). This is the closest massive UCD known and the first spectroscopically verified m…
The early-type galaxies NGC 1407 and NGC 1400 - II: star formation and chemical evolutionary history
Max Spolaor, Duncan A. Forbes, Robert N. Proctor +2
We present a possible star formation and chemical evolutionary history for two early-type galaxies NGC 1407 and NGC 1400. They are the two brightest galaxies of the NGC 1407 (or Er…
Is NGC 3108 transforming itself from an early to late type galaxy -- an astronomical hermaphrodite?
George Hau, Richard Bower, Virginia Kilborn +3
A common feature of hierarchical galaxy formation models is the process of "inverse" morphological transformation: a bulge dominated galaxy accretes a gas disk, dramatically reduci…
