The SLUGGS survey: Globular cluster stellar population trends from weak absorption lines in stacked spectra
Christopher Usher, Duncan A. Forbes, Jean P. Brodie +7
As part of the SLUGGS survey, we stack 1137 Keck DEIMOS spectra of globular clusters from 10 galaxies to study their stellar populations in detail. The stacked spectra have median…
Galaxy And Mass Assembly: Deconstructing Bimodality - I. Red ones and blue ones
Edward N. Taylor, Andrew M. Hopkins, Ivan K. Baldry +18
We measure the mass functions for generically red and blue galaxies, using a z < 0.12 sample of log M* > 8.7 field galaxies from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey. Our mot…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: instrument specification and target selection
J. J. Bryant, M. S. Owers, A. S. G. Robotham +54
The SAMI Galaxy Survey will observe 3400 galaxies with the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral-field spectrograph (SAMI) on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT) in a 3-year survey whi…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Early Data Release
J. T. Allen, S. M. Croom, I. S. Konstantopoulos +45
We present the Early Data Release of the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field spectrograph (SAMI) Galaxy Survey. The SAMI Galaxy Survey is an ongoing integral field spectroscopic…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Cubism and covariance, putting round pegs into square holes
R. Sharp, J. T. Allen, L. M. R. Fogarty +46
We present a methodology for the regularisation and combination of sparse sampled and irregularly gridded observations from fibre-optic multi-object integral-field spectroscopy. Th…
Kinematics and simulations of the stellar stream in the halo of the Umbrella Galaxy
Caroline Foster, Hanni Lux, Aaron J. Romanowsky +9
We study the dynamics of faint stellar substructures around the Umbrella Galaxy, NGC 4651, which hosts a dramatic system of streams and shells formed through the tidal disruption o…
