Probing the mass assembly of massive nearby galaxies with deep imaging
Pierre-Alain Duc
According to a popular scenario supported by numerical models, the mass assembly and growth of massive galaxies, in particular the Early-Type Galaxies (ETGs), is, below a redshift…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. IV. NGC 4216: A Bombarded Spiral in the Virgo Cluster
Sanjaya Paudel, Pierre-Alain Duc, Patrick Cote +16
We present an investigation into the origins of a series of interlaced narrow filamentary stellar structures, loops and plumes in the vicinity of the Virgo Cluster, edge-on spiral…
The Atlas-3D project - IX. The merger origin of a fast and a slow rotating Early-Type Galaxy revealed with deep optical imaging: first results
Pierre-Alain Duc, Jean-Charles Cuillandre, Paolo Serra +24
The mass assembly of galaxies leaves imprints in their outskirts, such as shells and tidal tails. The frequency and properties of such fine structures depend on the main acting mec…
Investigating the merger origin of Early-Type Galaxies using ultra-deep optical images
P. -A. Duc, J. -C. Cuillandre, K. Alatalo +28
The mass assembly of galaxies leaves various imprints on their surroundings, such as shells, streams and tidal tails. The frequency and properties of these fine structures depend o…
Faint dwarf galaxies in the Next Generation Virgo cluster Survey
Pierre-Alain Duc, Laura Ferrarese, Jean-Charles Cuillandre +5
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) is a CFHT Large Program that is using the wide field of view capabilities of the MegaCam camera to map the entire Virgo Cluster from…
