Dynamical Evolution of Outer-Halo Globular Clusters
Andreas H. W. Küpper, Akram H. Zonoozi, Hosein Haghi +5
Outer-halo globular clusters show large half-light radii and flat stellar mass functions, depleted in low-mass stars. Using N-body simulations of globular clusters on eccentric orb…
The AIMSS Project III: The Stellar Populations of Compact Stellar Systems
Joachim Janz, Mark A. Norris, Duncan A. Forbes +11
In recent years, a growing zoo of compact stellar systems (CSSs) have been found whose physical properties (mass, size, velocity dispersion) place them between classical globular c…
Major mergers with small galaxies - the discovery of a Magellanic-type galaxy at z=0.12
Andreas Koch, Matthias J. Frank, Anna Pasquali +2
We report on the serendipitous discovery of a star-forming galaxy at redshift z=0.116 with morphological features that indicate an ongoing merger. This object exhibits two clearly…
Evidence for a chemical enrichment coupling of globular clusters and field stars in the Fornax dSph
Benjamin Hendricks, Corrado Boeche, Christian I. Johnson +4
The globular cluster H4, located in the center of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy, is crucial for understanding the formation and chemical evolution of star clusters in low-mass…
Strömgren uvby photometry of the peculiar globular cluster NGC 2419
Matthias J. Frank, Andreas Koch, Sofia Feltzing +3
NGC 2419 is a peculiar Galactic globular cluster in terms of size/luminosity, and chemical abundance anomalies. Here, we present Strömgren photometry of the cluster. Using t…
