THE NEXT GENERATION VIRGO CLUSTER SURVEY. XIV. Shell feature early-type dwarf galaxies in the Virgo cluster

Sanjaya Paudel, Rory Smith, Pierre-Alain Duc +15

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey is a deep (with a detection limit = 29~mag~arcsec in the band) optical panchromatic survey targeting the Virgo cluste…

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XXIV. The Red Sequence to 10 L and Comparisons with Galaxy Formation Models

Joel C. Roediger, Laura Ferrarese, Patrick Côté +22

We use deep optical photometry from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey [NGVS] to investigate the color-magnitude diagram for the galaxies inhabiting the core of this cluster.…

The MASSIVE Survey - V. Spatially-Resolved Stellar Angular Momentum, Velocity Dispersion, and Higher Moments of the 41 Most Massive Local Early-Type Galaxies

Melanie Veale, Chung-Pei Ma, Jens Thomas +6

We present spatially-resolved two-dimensional stellar kinematics for the 41 most massive early-type galaxies (MK <~ -25.7 mag, stellar mass M* >~ 10^11.8 Msun) of the volume-limite…

New Constraints on a complex relation between globular cluster colors and environment

Mathieu Powalka, Thomas H. Puzia, Ariane Lançon +25

We present an analysis of high-quality photometry for globular clusters (GCs) in the Virgo cluster core region, based on data from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) p…

The Next Generation Virgo cluster Survey (NGVS). XXV. Fiducial panchromatic colors of Virgo core globular clusters and their comparison to model predictions

Mathieu Powalka, Ariane Lançon, Thomas H. Puzia +17

The central region of the Virgo cluster of galaxies contains thousands of globular clusters (GCs), an order of magnitude more than the numbers found in the Local Group. Relics of e…

The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. XII. Diffuse Star Clusters in Early-type Galaxies

Yiqing Liu, Eric W. Peng, Sungsoon Lim +5

Diffuse star clusters (DSCs) are old and dynamically hot stellar systems that have lower surface brightness and more extended morphology than globular clusters (GCs). Using the ima…
