The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
Shoko Jin, Scott C. Trager, Gavin B. Dalton +212
WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, will see first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-degree…
Forecasting the success of the WEAVE Wide-Field Cluster Survey on the extraction of the cosmic web filaments around galaxy clusters
Daniel J. Cornwell, Ulrike Kuchner, Alfonso Aragón-Salamanca +7
Next-generation wide-field spectroscopic surveys will observe the infall regions around large numbers of galaxy clusters with high sampling rates for the first time. Here we assess…
Optimisation of the WEAVE target assignment algorithm
Sarah Hughes, Gavin Dalton, Daniel Smith +12
WEAVE is the new wide-field spectroscopic facility for the prime focus of the William Herschel Telescope in La Palma, Spain. Its fibre positioner is essential for the accurate plac…
Fossil group origins XII. Large-scale environment around fossil systems
S. Zarattini, J. A. L. Aguerri, R. Calvi +1
We analyse the large-scale structure out to 100 Mpc around a sample of 16 confirmed fossil systems using spectroscopic information from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 16…
A slow bar in the lenticular barred galaxy NGC 4277
C. Buttitta, E. M. Corsini, V. Cuomo +9
Aims: We characterised the properties of the bar hosted in lenticular galaxy NGC 4277, which is located behind the Virgo cluster. Methods: We measured the bar length and strength f…
A slow lopsided bar in the interacting dwarf galaxy IC 3167
V. Cuomo, E. M. Corsini, L. Morelli +6
We present surface photometry and stellar kinematics of IC 3167, a dwarf galaxy hosting a lopsided weak bar and infalling into the Virgo cluster. We measured the bar radius and str…
