Tombaugh 2: The First Open Cluster with a Significant Abundance Spread or Embedded in a Cold Stellar Stream?
P. M. Frinchaboy, A. F. Marino, S. Villanova +3
We present new abundances and radial velocities for stars in the field of the open cluster Tombaugh 2, which has been suggested to be associated with the Galactic Anticenter Stella…
A Quantitative Link Between Globular Clusters and the Stellar Halos in Elliptical Galaxies
J. C. Forte, F. R. Faifer, D. Geisler
This paper explores the quantitative connection between globular clusters and the diffuse stellar population of the galaxies they are associated with. Both NGC 1399 and NGC 4486 (M…
Structural Parameters from Ground-based Observations of Newly Discovered Globular Clusters in NGC 5128
M. Gomez, D. Geisler, W. E. Harris +3
We have investigated a number of globular cluster candidates from a recent wide-field study by Harris et al. (2004a) of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 5128. We used the Magellan I…
The Globular Cluster System of NGC 1399: III. VLT Spectroscopy and Database
B. Dirsch, T. Richtler, D. Geisler +9
Radial velocities of 468 globular clusters around NGC 1399, the central galaxy in the Fornax cluster, have been obtained with FORS2 and the Mask Exchange Unit (MXU) at the ESO Very…
The Globular Cluster System of NGC 1399. II. Kinematics of a Large Sample of Globular Clusters
T. Richtler, B. Dirsch, K. Gebhardt +9
We study the kinematics and dynamics of the globular cluster system of NGC 1399, the central galaxy of the Fornax cluster. The observational data consists of medium resolution spec…
The Globular Cluster System of NGC 1399. I. A Wide-field Photometric Study
Boris Dirsch, Tom Richtler, Doug Geisler +3
We present a photometric investigation of the globular cluster population of NGC 1399, the central galaxy in the Fornax cluster, in Washington C and Kron R filters within a field o…
