HST/ACS observations of shell galaxies: inner shells, shell colours and dust
G. Sikkema, D. Carter, R. F. Peletier +3
AIM:Learn more about the origin of shells and dust in early type galaxies. METHOD: V-I colours of shells and underlying galaxies are derived, using HST Advanced Camera for Surveys…
Globular cluster systems of six shell galaxies
G. Sikkema, R. F. Peletier, D. Carter +2
Shells in Elliptical Galaxies are faint, sharp-edged features, believed to provide evidence of a recent ( years ago) merger event. We analyse the Globular…
A deep kinematic survey of planetary nebulae in the Andromeda Galaxy using the Planetary Nebula Spectrograph
H. R. Merrett, M. R. Merrifield, N. G. Douglas +13
We present a catalogue of positions, magnitudes and velocities for 3300 emission-line objects found by the Planetary Nebula Spectrograph in a survey of the Andromeda Galaxy, M31. O…
Tracing the Star Stream Through M31 Using Planetary Nebula Kinematics
H. R. Merrett, K. Kuijken, M. R. Merrifield +12
We present a possible orbit for the Southern Stream of stars in M31, which connects it to the Northern Spur. Support for this model comes from the dynamics of planetary nebulae (PN…
B-R Colors of Globular Clusters in NGC 6166 (A2199)
T. J. Bridges, D. Carter, W. E. Harris +1
We have analysed new R-band photometry of globular clusters in NGC 6166, the cD galaxy in the cooling flow cluster A2199. In combination with the earlier B photometry of Pritchet \…
