SDSS-IV MaNGA: Evidence of the importance of AGN feedback in low-mass galaxies

Samantha J. Penny, Karen L. Masters, Rebecca Smethurst +15

We present new evidence for AGN feedback in a subset of 69 quenched low-mass galaxies ( M, ) selected from the first t…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: The Different Quenching Histories of Fast and Slow Rotators

Rebecca Smethurst, Karen Masters, Chris Lintott +9

Do the theorised different formation mechanisms of fast and slow rotators produce an observable difference in their star formation histories? To study this we identify quenching sl…

The Fourteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and from the second phase of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment

Bela Abolfathi, D. S. Aguado, Gabriela Aguilar +344

The fourth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV) has been in operation since July 2014. This paper describes the second data release from this phase, and the fourtee…

A population of faint low surface brightness galaxies in the Perseus cluster core

Carolin Wittmann, Thorsten Lisker, Liyualem Ambachew Tilahun +7

We present the detection of 89 low surface brightness (LSB), and thus low stellar density galaxy candidates in the Perseus cluster core, of the kind named "ultra-diffuse galaxies",…

Implications for the origin of dwarf early-type galaxies: a detailed look at the isolated rotating dwarf early-type galaxy CG 611, with ramifications for the Fundamental Plane's (S_K)^2 kinematic scaling and the spin-ellipticity diagram

Alister W. Graham, Joachim Janz, Samantha J. Penny +4

Selected from a sample of nine, isolated, dwarf early-type galaxies (ETGs) having the same range of kinematic properties as dwarf ETGs in clusters, we use CG 611 (LEDA 2108986) to…

The WAGGS project - I. The WiFeS Atlas of Galactic Globular cluster Spectra

Christopher Usher, Nicola Pastorello, Sabine Bellstedt +9

We present the WiFeS Atlas of Galactic Globular cluster Spectra, a library of integrated spectra of Milky Way and Local Group globular clusters. We used the WiFeS integral field sp…

Implications for the origin of early-type dwarf galaxies --- the discovery of rotation in isolated, low-mass early-type galaxies

Joachim Janz, Samantha J. Penny, Alister W. Graham +2

We present the discovery of rotation in quenched, low-mass early-type galaxies that are isolated. This finding challenges the claim that (all) rotating dwarf early-type galaxies in…
