The globular cluster NGC7492 and the Sagittarius tidal stream: together but unmixed

Julio A. Carballo-Bello, Jesús M. Corral-Santana, Márcio Catelan +7

We have derived from VIMOS spectroscopy the radial velocities for a sample of 71 stars selected from CFHT/Megacam photometry around the Galactic globular cluster NGC7492. In the re…

Virgo Redux: The Masses and Stellar Content of Nuclei in Early-Type Galaxies from Multi-Band Photometry and Spectroscopy

Chelsea Spengler, Patrick Côté, Joel Roediger +14

We present an analysis of 39 nuclei and their early-type hosts in the Virgo Cluster using ten broadband filters: F300W, F475W, F850LP, F160W, , and . We describe the…

Chemical Mapping of the Milky Way With The Canada-France Imaging Survey: A Non-parametric Metallicity-Distance Decomposition of the Galaxy

Rodrigo Ibata, Alan McConnachie, Jean-Charles Cuillandre +41

We present the chemical distribution of the Milky Way, based on 2,900 of -band photometry taken as part of the Canada-France Imaging Survey. When complete, this…

The Canada-France Imaging Survey: First results from the u-band component

Rodrigo Ibata, Alan McConnachie, Jean-Charles Cuillandre +41

The Canada-France Imaging Survey (CFIS) will map the northern high Galactic latitude sky in the -band ("CFIS-u", 10,000) and in the -band ("CFIS-r", 5,000$\,…

The Pristine survey III: Spectroscopic confirmation of an efficient search for extremely metal-poor stars

K. Youakim, E. Starkenburg, D. S. Aguado +13

The Pristine survey is a narrow-band, photometric survey focused around the wavelength region of the Ca II H & K absorption lines, designed to efficiently search for extremely meta…

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XXVIII. Characterization of the Galactic White Dwarf Population

Nicholas J. Fantin, Patrick Côté, David A. Hanes +6

We use three different techniques to identify hundreds of white dwarf (WD) candidates in the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) based on photometry from the NGVS and GUViC…

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XX. RedGOLD Background Galaxy Cluster Detections

Rossella Licitra, Simona Mei, Anand Raichoor +13

We build a background cluster candidate catalog from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey, using our detection algorithm RedGOLD. The NGVS covers 104 of the Virgo cluste…

The Next Generation Virgo cluster Survey (NGVS). XXVI. The issues of photometric age and metallicity estimates for globular clusters

Mathieu Powalka, Ariane Lançon, Thomas H. Puzia +17

Large samples of globular clusters (GC) with precise multi-wavelength photometry are becoming increasingly available and can be used to constrain the formation history of galaxies.…

Galactic Pal-eontology: Abundance Analysis of the Disrupting Globular Cluster Palomar 5

Andreas Koch, Patrick Côté

We present a chemical abundance analysis of the tidally disrupted globular cluster (GC) Palomar 5. By co-adding high-resolution spectra of 15 member stars from the cluster's main b…
