Young Globular Clusters and Dwarf Spheroidals
Sidney van den Bergh
Most of the globular clusters in the main body of the Galactic halo were formed almost simultaneously. However, globular cluster formation in dwarf spheroidal galaxies appears to h…
The Mass of the Centaurus A Group of Galaxies
Sidney van den Bergh
The mass M, and the radius R_h, of the Centaurus A group are estimated from the positions and radial velocities of 30 probable cluster members. For an assumed distance of 3.9 Mpc i…
The Future of Extragalactic Research
Sidney van den Bergh
It is argued that the astronomy of the twenty-first century will be dominated by computer-based manipulation of huge homogeneous surveys of various types of astronomical objects. F…
The Stellar Mass Spectrum in the Young Populous Cluster NGC 1866
Sidney van den Bergh
The young populous cluster NGC 1866 in the Large Magellanic Cloud LMC), which is probably one of the most massive object formed in the LMC during the last ~ 3 Gyr, appears to have…
The Nearest Group of Galaxies
Sidney van den Bergh
The small Antlia-Sextans clustering of galaxies is located at a distance of only 1.36 Mpc from the Sun, and 1.72 Mpc from the adopted barycenter of the Local Group. The latter valu…
The Luminosity Distribution of Local Group Galaxies
C. J. Pritchet, S. van den Bergh
From a rediscussion of Local Group membership, and of distances to individual galaxies, we obtain values for 35 probable and possible Local Group members. The luminosity func…
