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…

G2C2 II: Integrated colour-metallicity relations for Galactic Globular Clusters in SDSS passbands

Joachim Vanderbeke, Michael J. West, Roberto De Propris +8

We use our integrated SDSS photometry for 96 globular clusters in and , as well as and photometry for a subset of 56 clusters, to derive the integrated colour-metall…

Discovery of a New Member of the Inner Oort Cloud from The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey

Ying-Tung Chen, J. J. Kavelaars, Stephen Gwyn +6

We report the discovery of 2010 GB, a likely new member of the Inner Oort Cloud (IOC). 2010 GB is one of 91 Trans Neptunian Objects (TNOs) and Centaurs discovered i…

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…

The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. XVII. The Spatial Alignment of Globular Cluster Systems With Early-Type Host Galaxies

Qiushi Wang, Eric W. Peng, John P. Blakeslee +5

We study the azimuthal distribution of globular clusters (GCs) in early-type galaxies and compare them to their host galaxies using data from the ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. We find…

Kinematics of Outer Halo Globular Clusters in M31

J. Veljanoski, A. M. N. Ferguson, A. D. Mackey +12

We present the first kinematic analysis of the far outer halo globular cluster (GC) population in the Local Group galaxy M31. Our sample contains 53 objects with projected radii of…
