The Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (SG): Precise Stellar Mass Distributions from Automated Dust Correction at 3.6 microns
M. Querejeta, S. E. Meidt, E. Schinnerer +26
The mid-infrared is an optimal window to trace stellar mass in nearby galaxies and the 3.6 IRAC band has been exploited to this effect, but such mass estimates can be biased by…
The AIMSS Project II: Dynamical-to-Stellar Mass Ratios Across the Star Cluster - Galaxy Divide
Duncan A. Forbes, Mark A. Norris, Jay Strader +5
The previously clear division between small galaxies and massive star clusters is now occupied by objects called ultra compact dwarfs (UCDs) and compact ellipticals (cEs). Here we…
Being WISE I: Validating Stellar Population Models and M/L ratios at 3.4 and 4.6 microns
Mark A. Norris, Sharon Meidt, Glenn Van de Ven +3
Using data from the WISE mission, we have measured near infra-red (NIR) photometry of a diverse sample of dust-free stellar systems (globular clusters, dwarf and giant early-type g…
The AIMSS Project I: Bridging the Star Cluster - Galaxy Divide
Mark A. Norris, Sheila J. Kannappan, Duncan A. Forbes +15
We describe the structural and kinematic properties of the first compact stellar systems discovered by the AIMSS project. These spectroscopically confirmed objects have sizes ($\si…
Globular clusters of NGC 3115 in the near-infrared. Demonstrating the correctness of two opposing scenarios
Michele Cantiello, John P. Blakeslee, Gabriella Raimondo +4
We combined new near-infrared VLT/HAWK-I data of the globular clusters (GCs) in the isolated edge-on S0 galaxy NGC 3115 with optical and spectroscopic ones taken from the literatur…
