Tightening weak lensing constraints on the ellipticity of galaxy-scale dark matter haloes
Tim Schrabback, Henk Hoekstra, Ludovic Van Waerbeke +19
Cosmological simulations predict that galaxies are embedded into triaxial dark matter haloes, which appear approximately elliptical in projection. Weak gravitational lensing allows…
Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XXI. The weak lensing masses of the CFHTLS and NGVS RedGOLD galaxy clusters and calibration of the optical richness
Carolina Parroni, Simona Mei, Thomas Erben +14
We measured stacked weak lensing cluster masses for a sample of 1325 galaxy clusters detected by the RedGOLD algorithm in the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey W1 and th…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey - Infrared (NGVS-IR): I. A new Near-UV/Optical/Near-IR Globular Cluster selection tool
Roberto P. Muñoz, Thomas H. Puzia, Ariane Lançon +35
The NGVS-IR project (Next Generation Virgo Survey - Infrared) is a contiguous near-infrared imaging survey of the Virgo cluster of galaxies. It complements the optical wide-field s…
The Rich Globular Cluster System of Abell 1689 and the Radial Dependence of the Globular Cluster Formation Efficiency
K. A. Alamo-Martínez, J. P. Blakeslee, M. J. Jee +7
We study the rich globular cluster (GC) system in the center of the massive cluster of galaxies Abell 1689 (z=0.18), one of the most powerful gravitational lenses known. With 28 HS…
Globular cluster systems in fossil groups: NGC6482, NGC1132 and ESO306-017
K. A. Alamo-Martínez, M. J. West, J. P. Blakeslee +6
We study the globular cluster (GC) systems in three representative fossil group galaxies: the nearest (NGC6482), the prototype (NGC1132) and the most massive known to date (ESO306-…
The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey VIII. CO data and the L(CO3-2)-L(FIR) correlation in the SINGS sample
C. D. Wilson, B. E. Warren, F. P. Israel +57
The James Clerk Maxwell Telescope Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey (NGLS) comprises an HI-selected sample of 155 galaxies spanning all morphological types with distances less than 25…
Stripped gas as fuel for newly formed HII regions in the encounter between VCC1249 and M49: a unified picture from NGVS and GUViCS
Fabrizio Arrigoni Battaia, Giuseppe Gavazzi, Michele Fumagalli +15
Context: We study the peculiar interacting galaxy system of VCC1249/M49 located in the core of the Virgo B subcluster. Owing to a recent interaction between the dwarf galaxy VCC124…
Investigating the merger origin of Early-Type Galaxies using ultra-deep optical images
P. -A. Duc, J. -C. Cuillandre, K. Alatalo +28
The mass assembly of galaxies leaves various imprints on their surroundings, such as shells, streams and tidal tails. The frequency and properties of these fine structures depend o…
