Intra Cluster Light properties in the CLASH-VLT cluster MACS J1206.2-0847
V. Presotto, M. Girardi, M. Nonino +46
We aim at constraining the assembly history of clusters by studying the intra cluster light (ICL) properties, estimating its contribution to the fraction of baryons in stars, f*, a…
CLASH: Extending galaxy strong lensing to small physical scales with distant sources highly-magnified by galaxy cluster members
C. Grillo, R. Gobat, V. Presotto +35
We present a strong lensing system in which a double source is imaged 5 times by 2 early-type galaxies. We take advantage in this target of the multi-band photometry obtained as pa…
NGC1266 as a Local Candidate for Rapid Cessation of Star Formation
Katherine Alatalo, Kristina Nyland, Genevieve Graves +27
We present new Spectrographic Areal Unit for Research on Optical Nebulae (SAURON) integral-field spectroscopy and Swift Ultraviolet Optical Telescope (UVOT) observations of molecul…
The Contribution of Halos with Different Mass Ratios to the Overall Growth of Cluster-Sized Halos
Doron Lemze, Marc Postman, Shy Genel +39
We provide a new observational test for a key prediction of the ΛCDM cosmological model: the contributions of mergers with different halo-to-main-cluster mass ratios to cluster-siz…
CLASH-VLT: The mass, velocity-anisotropy, and pseudo-phase-space density profiles of the z=0.44 galaxy cluster MACS 1206.2-0847
A. Biviano, P. Rosati, I. Balestra +44
We use an unprecedented data-set of about 600 redshifts for cluster members, obtained as part of a VLT/VIMOS large programme, to constrain the mass profile of the z=0.44 cluster MA…
The Stellar Halos of Massive Elliptical Galaxies II: Detailed Abundance Ratios at Large Radius
Jenny E Greene, Jeremy D Murphy, Genevieve J Graves +4
We study the radial dependence in stellar populations of 33 nearby early-type galaxies with central stellar velocity dispersions sigma* > 150 km/s. We measure stellar population pr…
