The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. X. Color Gradients of Globular Cluster Systems in Early-Type Galaxies
Chengze Liu, Eric W. Peng, Andres Jordan +4
We use the largest homogeneous sample of globular clusters (GCs), drawn from the ACSVCS and ACSFCS, to investigate the color gradients of GC systems in 76 early-type galaxies. We f…
The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. IV. Deprojection of the Surface Brightness Profiles of Early-Type Galaxies in the Virgo and Fornax Clusters: Investigating the "Core/Power-Law Dichotomy"
Lisa Glass, Laura Ferrarese, Patrick Cote +8
Although early observations with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) pointed to a sharp dichotomy among early-type galaxies in terms of the logarithmic slope gamma' of their central s…
Star Formation Histories in a Cluster Environment at z~0.84
R. Demarco, R. Gobat, P. Rosati +8
We present a spectrophotometric analysis of galaxies belonging to the dynamically young, massive cluster RX J0152.7-1357 at z~0.84, aimed at understanding the effects of the cluste…
Surface Brightness Fluctuations in the Hubble Space Telescope ACS/WFC F814W Bandpass and an Update on Galaxy Distances
John P. Blakeslee, Michele Cantiello, Simona Mei +7
We measure surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) magnitudes in the F814W filter and g-I colors for nine bright early-type Fornax cluster galaxies imaged with the Hubble Space Telesc…
The Inner Halo of M87: A First Direct View of the Red-Giant Population
Sarah Bird, William E. Harris, John P. Blakeslee +1
An unusually deep (V,I) imaging dataset for the Virgo supergiant M87 with the Hubble Space Telescope ACS successfully resolves its brightest red-giant stars, reaching M_I(lim) = -2…
Ultra-Compact Dwarfs in the Core of the Coma Cluster
Juan P. Madrid, Alister W. Graham, William E. Harris +6
We have discovered both a red and a blue subpopulation of Ultra-Compact Dwarf (UCD) galaxy candidates in the Coma galaxy cluster. We analyzed deep F475W (Sloan g) and F814W (I) Hub…
