The SAGES Legacy Unifying Globulars and GalaxieS Survey (SLUGGS): Sample definition, methods, and initial results
Jean P. Brodie, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Jay Strader +14
We introduce and provide the scientific motivation for a wide-field photometric and spectroscopic chemodynamical survey of nearby early-type galaxies (ETGs) and their globular clus…
The SLUGGS Survey: New evidence for a tidal interaction between the early type galaxies NGC 4365 and NGC 4342
Christina Blom, Duncan A. Forbes, Caroline Foster +2
We present new imaging and spectral data for globular clusters (GCs) around NGC 4365 and NGC 4342. NGC 4342 is a compact, X-ray luminous S0 galaxy with an unusually massive central…
The SLUGGS Survey: Wide-field Stellar Kinematics of Early-type Galaxies
Jacob A. Arnold, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Jean P. Brodie +10
We present stellar kinematics of 22 nearby early-type galaxies (ETGs), based on two-dimensional (2D) absorption line stellar spectroscopy out to ~2-4 R_e (effective radii), as part…
The SLUGGS Survey: Kinematics for over 2500 Globular Clusters in Twelve Early-type Galaxies
Vincenzo Pota, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +10
We present a spectro-photometric survey of 2522 extragalactic globular clusters (GCs) around twelve early-type galaxies, nine of which have not been published previously. Combining…
The SLUGGS Survey: Globular cluster system kinematics and substructure in NGC 4365
Christina Blom, Duncan A. Forbes, Jean P. Brodie +4
We present a kinematic analysis of the globular cluster (GC) system of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4365 and find several distinct kinematic substructures. This analysis is carr…
Chandra observations of NGC4342, an optically faint, X-ray gas-rich early-type galaxy
Akos Bogdan, William R. Forman, Ralph P. Kraft +10
Chandra X-ray observations of NGC4342, a low stellar mass (M_K=-22.79 mag) early-type galaxy, show luminous, diffuse X-ray emission originating from hot gas with temperature of kT~…
