Low surface brightness dwarf galaxies and their globular cluster populations around the low-density environment of our closest S0 NGC3115

Marco A. Canossa-Gosteinski, Ana L. Chies-Santos, Cristina Furlanetto +12

Understanding faint dwarf galaxies is fundamental to the development of a robust theory of galaxy formation on small scales. Since the discovery of a population of ultra diffuse ga…

The relation between globular cluster systems and supermassive black holes in spiral galaxies III. The link to the correlation

Rosa A. González-Lópezlira, Luis Lomelí-Núñez, Yasna Ordenes-Briceño +6

We continue to explore the relationship between globular cluster total number, , and central black hole mass, , in spiral galaxies. We present here results f…

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XXXIV. Ultra-Compact Dwarf (UCD) Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster

Chengze Liu, Patrick Côté, Eric W. Peng +26

We present a study of ultra compact dwarf (UCD) galaxies in the Virgo cluster based mainly on imaging from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). Using 100 deg$^{2}…

The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS): VI. The Alignment of Dwarf Galaxies in The Fornax Cluster

Yu Rong, Thomas H. Puzia, Paul Eigenthaler +16

Using the photometric data from the Next Generation Fornax Survey, we find a significant radial alignment signal among the Fornax dwarf galaxies. For the first time, we report that…

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XXIII. Fundamentals of nuclear star clusters over seven decades in galaxy mass

R. Sánchez-Janssen, P. Côté, L. Ferrarese +25

Using deep, high resolution optical imaging from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey we study the properties of nuclear star clusters (NSCs) in a sample of nearly 400 quiescen…

The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS): IV. Mass and Age Bimodality of Nuclear Clusters in the Fornax Core Region

Y. Ordenes-Briceño, T. H. Puzia, P. Eigenthaler +15

We present the analysis of 61 nucleated dwarf galaxies in the central regions () of the Fornax galaxy cluster. The galaxies and their nuclei are studied as part of…

The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS): III. Revealing the Spatial Substructure of the Dwarf Galaxy Population inside half of Fornax's Virial Radius

Y. Ordenes-Briceño, P. Eigenthaler, M. A. Taylor +15

We report the discovery of 271 previously undetected dwarf galaxies in the outer Fornax cluster regions at radii using data from the Next Genera…

Unveiling a Rich System of Faint Dwarf Galaxies in the Next Generation Fornax Survey

Roberto P. Munoz, Paul Eigenthaler, Thomas H. Puzia +18

We report the discovery of 158 previously undetected dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster central regions using a deep coadded and -band image obtained with the DECam wid…

The dynamical state of brightest cluster galaxies and the formation of clusters

R. Coziol, H. Andernach, C. A. Caretta +2

A large sample of Abell clusters of galaxies, selected for the likely presence of a dominant galaxy, is used to study the dynamical properties of brightest cluster members (BCMs).…
