Variable stars and stellar populations in Andromeda XXI: II. Another merged galaxy satellite of M31?

F. Cusano, A. Garofalo, G. Clementini +8

B and V time-series photometry of the M31 dwarf spheroidal satellite Andromeda XXI (And XXI) was obtained with the Large Binocular Cameras at the Large Binocular Telescope. We have…

The VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey: Evolution in the Halo Occupation Number since z 1

U. Abbas, S. de la Torre, O. Le Fèvre +47

We model the evolution of the mean galaxy occupation of dark-matter halos over the range , using the data from the VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). The galaxy projected cor…

The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey: the group catalogue

O. Cucciati, C. Marinoni, A. Iovino +39

[Abridged] We present a homogeneous and complete catalogue of optical groups identified in the purely flux limited (17.5<=I<=24.0) VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). We use mock catalog…

The Variable Star Population of the Globular Cluster B514 in the Andromeda Galaxy

Gisella Clementini, Rodrigo Contreras, Luciana Federici +8

A rich harvest of RR Lyrae stars has been identified for the first time in B514, a metal-poor ([Fe/H] = 1.95 +/- 0.10 dex) globular cluster of the Andromeda galaxy (M31), based on…
