Revised Mass-to-Light Ratios For Nearby Galaxy Groups and Clusters
Yutong Shan, Michael McDonald, Stephane Courteau
We present a detailed investigation of the cluster stellar mass-to-light (M*/L) ratio and cumulative stellar masses, derived on a galaxy-by-galaxy basis, for 12 massive (M500 ~ 10^…
The Stellar Mass of M31 as inferred by the Andromeda Optical & Infrared Disk Survey
Jonathan Sick, Stephane Courteau, Jean-Charles Cuillandre +5
Our proximity and external vantage point make M31 an ideal testbed for understanding the structure of spiral galaxies. The Andromeda Optical and Infrared Disk Survey (ANDROIDS) has…
HST-COS Spectroscopy of the Cooling Flow in Abell 1795 - Evidence for Inefficient Star Formation in Condensing Intracluster Gas
Michael McDonald, Joel C. Roediger, Sylvain Veilleux +1
We present far-UV spectroscopy from the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope of a cool, star-forming filament in the core of Abell 1795. These data, which span…
A very deep Chandra observation of Abell 1795: The Cold Front and Cooling Wake
S. Ehlert, M. McDonald, E. D. Miller +2
We present a new analysis of very deep Chandra observations of the galaxy cluster Abell 1795. Utilizing nearly 750 ks of net ACIS imaging, we are able to resolve the thermodynamic…
