The dynamical state of massive galaxy clusters
E. S. Cypriano, L. Sodre, J. -P. Kneib +1
We study the mass distribution of a sample of 24 X-ray bright Abell clusters through weak gravitational lensing. This method is independent of the dynamical state of the galaxy clu…
Velocity dispersion, mass and the luminosity function of the fossil cluster RX J1416.4+2315
Eduardo S. Cypriano, Claudia L. Mendes de Oliveira, Laerte Sodré
We study the properties of the fossil cluster RX J1416.4+2315 through g' and i'-band imaging and spectroscopy of 25 member galaxies. The system is at a mean redshift of 0.137 and h…
The K luminosity-metallicity relation for dwarf galaxies and the tidal dwarf galaxies in the tails of HCG 31
Claudia L. Mendes de Oliveira, Sonia Temporin, Eduardo S. Cypriano +4
We determine a K-band luminosity-metallicity (K-Z) relation for dwarf irregular galaxies, over a large range of magnitudes, -20.5 < M_K < -13.5, using a combination of K photometry…
Shrinking of Cluster Ellipticals: a Tidal Stripping explanation and Implications for the Intra-Cluster Light
Eduardo S. Cypriano, Laerte Sodré, Luis E. Campusano +2
We look for evidence of tidal stripping in elliptical galaxies through the analysis of homogeneous CCD data corresponding to a sample of 228 elliptical galaxies belonging to 24 clu…
