Dynamical masses of ultra-compact dwarf galaxies in Fornax
M. Hilker, H. Baumgardt, L. Infante +3
Aims. We determine masses and mass-to-light ratios of five ultra-compact dwarf galaxies and one dwarf elliptical nucleus in the Fornax cluster from high resolution spectroscopy. Me…
Internal Properties of Ultra-Compact Dwarf Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
E. A. Evstigneeva, M. D. Gregg, M. J. Drinkwater +1
We present new imaging and spectroscopic observations of six ultra-compact dwarf (UCD) galaxies in the Virgo Cluster, along with re-analysed data for five Fornax Cluster UCDs. Thes…
Kinematics, Substructure and Luminosity-weighted Dynamics of Six Nearby Galaxy Groups
P. Firth, E. Evstigneeva, J. B. Jones +3
We have redefined group membership of six southern galaxy groups in the local universe (mean cz < 2000 km/s) based on new redshift measurements from our recently acquired Anglo-Aus…
Ultra-Compact Stellar Systems in the Fornax Galaxy Cluster
P. Firth, M. J. Drinkwater, E. A. Evstigneeva +6
Our VLT (FLAMES) observations near NGC1399 investigate the connection between ultra-compact dwarf galaxies (UCDs), NGC1399 globular clusters and intra-cluster globulars. We have un…
