Looking into the faintEst WIth MUSE (LEWIS): Exploring the nature of ultra-diffuse galaxies in the Hydra-I cluster. VI. A star-forming UDG in Hydra I: a rare UDG or a transition phase?
Luca Rossi, Chiara Buttitta, Goran Doll +21
This paper presents a detailed analysis of a gas-rich star-forming ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG) as part of the ESO Large Programme 'Looking into the faintEst WIth MUSE (LEWIS)'. Amon…
Dark matter-deficient twins: FCC 224 and FCC 240 as possible analogues of NGC 1052-DF2 and DF4
Maria Luisa Buzzo, Pieter van Dokkum, Michael Hilker +3
The recent "bullet-dwarf" model proposes that high-velocity collisions between dwarf galaxies can produce stellar systems with overluminous globular clusters (GCs) and a deficiency…
Merge and Strip II: Imprint of galaxy formation physics and viscosity on baryon-dominated dwarf galaxies
Anna Ivleva, Klaus Dolag, Rhea-Silvia Remus +2
Motivated by the discovery of peculiar dwarf galaxies inside galaxy clusters such as blue candidates (BCs), dark galaxies and ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs), we present hydrodynamic…
Revisiting the distance and the globular cluster system of the remarkable galaxy UDG1 in the NGC 5846 group
Duncan A. Forbes, Bas van Heumen, Yimeng Tang
Two studies that utilised the same HST/WFC3 imaging of NGC5846_UDG1 have reported quite different total counts for its globular cluster (GC) system, i.e. 54 9 vs 33 3 G…
The Dawes Review 14: A Decade of Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies
Jonah S. Gannon, Anna Ferré-Mateu, Duncan A. Forbes
It has been 10 years since the initial discovery of Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs) in the Coma cluster and the revelation that large, low surface brightness galaxies may constitute…
Looking into the faintEst WIth MUSE (LEWIS): on the nature of ultra-diffuse galaxies in the Hydra I cluster. V. Integrated stellar population properties
Goran Doll, Chiara Buttitta, Enrichetta Iodice +19
Context: This paper presents new results from the ESO Large Programme Looking into the faintEst WIth MUSE (LEWIS). The sample consists of low-surface brightness (LSB) and ultra-dif…
