Tracing the Giant Outer Halo of the Mysterious Massive Disk Galaxy M104 I. Photometry of the Extended Globular Cluster Systems
Jisu Kang, Myung Gyoon Lee, In Sung Jang +4
M104 (NGC 4594, the Sombrero galaxy) is a mysterious massive early-type galaxy that shows a dominant bulge and a prominent disk. However, the presence of a halo in M104 has been el…
A GMOS/IFU Study of Jellyfish Galaxies in Massive Clusters
Jeong Hwan Lee, Myung Gyoon Lee, Jae Yeon Mun +2
Jellyfish galaxies are an intriguing snapshot of galaxies undergoing ram-pressure stripping (RPS) in dense environments, showing spectacular star-forming knots in their disks and t…
Enhanced Star Formation Activity of Extreme Jellyfish Galaxies in Massive Clusters and the Role of Ram Pressure Stripping
Jeong Hwan Lee, Myung Gyoon Lee, Jae Yeon Mun +2
Jellyfish galaxies are an excellent tool to investigate the short-term effects of ram pressure stripping (RPS) on star formation in cluster environments. It has been thought that t…
A Rich Satellite Population of the NGC 4437 Group and Implications of a Magnitude Gap for Galaxy Group Assembly History
Yoo Jung Kim, Jisu Kang, Myung Gyoon Lee +1
Both observations and cosmological simulations have recently shown that there is a large scatter in the number of satellites of Milky Way (MW)-like galaxies. In this study, we inve…
Globular Cluster Systems of Massive Compact Elliptical Galaxies in the Local Universe: Evidence for Relic Red Nuggets?
Jisu Kang, Myung Gyoon Lee
Nearby massive compact elliptical galaxies (MCEGs) are strong candidates for relic galaxies (i.e. local analogs of red nuggets at high redshifts). It is expected that the globular…
Determination of the Local Hubble Constant from Virgo Infall Using TRGB Distances
Yoo Jung Kim, Jisu Kang, Myung Gyoon Lee +1
An independent determination of is crucial given the growing tension between the Hubble constant, , derived locally and that determined from the modeling of the cosmic m…
