The turbulent life of NGC 4696 as told by its globular cluster system
S. Federle, M. Gómez, S. Mieske +4
In this work we perform the photometric analysis of the globular cluster system (GCS) of the giant elliptical NGC4696, which is the brightest member of Centaurus, a rich and dynami…
The outermost stellar halo of NGC 5128 (Centaurus A): Radial structure
M. Rejkuba, W. E. Harris, L. Greggio +2
The extended stellar halos of galaxies contain important clues for investigating their assembly history and evolution. We investigate the resolved stellar content and the extended…
Measuring Dark Matter in Galaxies: The Mass Fraction Within 5 Effective Radii
William E. Harris, Rhea-Silvia Remus, Gretchen L. H. Harris +1
Large galaxies may contain an "atmosphere" of hot interstellar X-ray gas, and the temperature and radial density profile of this gas can be used to measure the total mass of the ga…
Globular Cluster Systems and X-Ray Atmospheres in Galaxies
Gretchen L. H. Harris, Iurii V. Babyk, William E. Harris +1
We compare the empirical relationships between the mass of a galaxy's globular system M_GCS, the gas mass in the hot X-ray atmosphere M_X within a fiducial radius of 5 r_e, the tot…
Galactic Dark Matter Halos and Globular Cluster Populations. III: Extension to Extreme Environments
William E. Harris, John P. Blakeslee, Gretchen L. H. Harris
The total mass M_GCS in the globular cluster (GC) system of a galaxy is empirically a near-constant fraction of the total mass M_h = M_bary + M_dark of the galaxy, across a range o…
Dark Matter Halos in Galaxies and Globular Cluster Populations. II: Metallicity and Morphology
William Harris, Gretchen Harris, Michael Hudson
An increasing body of data reveals a one-to-one linear correlation between galaxy halo mass and the total mass in its globular cluster (GC) population, M_{GCS} ~ M_h^{1.03 \pm 0.03…
