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…
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…
A deep wide survey of faint low surface brightness galaxies in the direction of the Coma cluster of galaxies
C. Adami, R. Scheidegger, M. P. Ulmer +8
We report on a search for faint (R total magnitude fainter than 21) and low surface brightness galaxies (R central surface brightness fainter than ~24) (fLSBs) in a 0.72x0.82 deg2…
Deep and wide field imaging of the Coma cluster: the data
C. Adami, J. P. Picat, C. Savine +10
We have obtained deep and wide field imaging of the Coma cluster of galaxies with the CFH12K camera at CFHT in the B, V, R and I filters. In this paper, we present the observations…
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…
XMM-Newton Detection of the Rare FR II BAL Quasar FIRST J101614.3+520916
Justin J. Schaefer, Michael S. Brotherton, Zhaohui Shang +5
We have detected FIRST J101614.3+520916 with the XMM-Newton X-ray Observatory. FIRST J101614.3+520916, one of the most extreme radio-loud, broad absorption line (BAL) quasars so fa…
