The SLUGGS Survey: stellar kinematics, kinemetry and trends at large radii in 25 early-type galaxies
Caroline Foster, Nicola Pastorello, Joel Roediger +9
Due to longer dynamical timescales, the outskirts of early-type galaxies retain the footprint of their formation and assembly. Under the popular two-phase galaxy formation scenario…
The SLUGGS survey: chromo-dynamical modelling of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1023
Arianna Cortesi, Ana L. Chies-Santos, Vincenzo Pota +12
Globular clusters (GCs) can be considered discrete, long-lived, dynamical tracers that retain crucial information about the assembly history of their parent galaxy. In this paper,…
Hiding in plain sight: record-breaking compact stellar systems in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Michael A. Sandoval, Richard P. Vo, Aaron J. Romanowsky +10
Motivated by the recent, serendipitous discovery of the densest known galaxy, M60-UCD1, we present two initial findings from a follow-up search, using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey,…
Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): the effect of close interactions on star formation in galaxies
L. J. M. Davies, A. S. G. Robotham, S. P. Driver +25
The modification of star formation (SF) in galaxy interactions is a complex process, with SF observed to be both enhanced in major mergers and suppressed in minor pair interactions…
Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): end of survey report and data release 2
J. Liske, I. K. Baldry, S. P. Driver +67
The Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey is one of the largest contemporary spectroscopic surveys of low-redshift galaxies. Covering an area of ~286 deg^2 (split among five surve…
The SLUGGS Survey: Globular cluster kinematics in a "double sigma" galaxy - NGC 4473
Adebusola B. Alabi, Caroline Foster, Duncan A. Forbes +6
NGC 4473 is a so--called double sigma (2) galaxy, i.e. a galaxy with rare, double peaks in its 2D stellar velocity dispersion. Here, we present the globular cluster (GC) kinemat…
