The SLUGGS Survey: NGC 3115, A Critical Test Case for Metallicity Bimodality in Globular Cluster Systems
Jean P. Brodie, Christopher Usher, Charlie Conroy +4
Due to its proximity (9 Mpc) and the strongly bimodal color distribution of its spectroscopically well-sampled globular cluster (GC) system, the early-type galaxy NGC 3115 provides…
The SLUGGS Survey: Kinematics for over 2500 Globular Clusters in Twelve Early-type Galaxies
Vincenzo Pota, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +10
We present a spectro-photometric survey of 2522 extragalactic globular clusters (GCs) around twelve early-type galaxies, nine of which have not been published previously. Combining…
The SLUGGS Survey: Calcium Triplet-based Spectroscopic Metallicities for Over 900 Globular Clusters
Christopher Usher, Duncan A. Forbes, Jean P. Brodie +6
Although the colour distribution of globular clusters in massive galaxies is well known to be bimodal, the spectroscopic metallicity distribution has been measured in only a few ga…
Dwarfs Gobbling Dwarfs: A Stellar Tidal Stream Around NGC 4449 and Hierarchical Galaxy Formation on Small Scales
David Martinez-Delgado, Aaron J. Romanowsky, R. Jay GaBany +13
A candidate diffuse stellar substructure was previously reported in the halo of the nearby dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 4449 by Karachentsev et al. We map and analyze this feature us…
