The Formation of Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies in Clusters

Laura V. Sales, Julio F. Navarro, Louis Penafiel +3

We use the IllustrisTNG cosmological hydrodynamical simulation to study the formation of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in galaxy clusters. We supplement the simulations with a real…

Ks Band Luminosity Evolution of the Asymptotic Giant Branch Population Based on Star Clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Youkyung Ko, Myung Gyoon Lee, Sungsoon Lim

We present a study of Ks band luminosity evolution of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) population in simple stellar systems using star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)…

The Star Cluster System in the Nearby Starburst Galaxy M82

Sungsoon Lim, Narae Hwang, Myung Gyoon Lee

We present a photometric study of star clusters in the nearby starburst galaxy M82 based on the UBVI, YJ and H band Hubble Space Telescope images. We find 1105 star clusters with V…

Discovery of the most isolated globular cluster in the local universe

In Sung Jang, Sungsoon Lim, Hong Soo Park +1

We report the discovery of two new globular clusters in the remote halos of M81 and M82 in the M81 Group based on Hubble Space Telescope archive images. They are brighter than typi…

Merging Galaxy Cluster Abell 2255 in Mid-Infrared

Hyunjin Shim, Myungshin Im, Hyung Mok Lee +11

We present the mid-infrared (MIR) observation of a nearby galaxy cluster, Abell 2255 by the AKARI space telescope. Using the AKARI's continuous wavelength coverage between 3-24 mic…

Wandering globular clusters: the first dwarf galaxies in the universe?

Myung Gyoon Lee, Sungsoon Lim, Hong Soo Park +2

In the last decade we witness an advent of new types of dwarf stellar systems in cluding ultra-compact dwarfs, ultra-faint dwarf spheroidals, and exotic globular clusters, breaking…

The Mid-infrared View of Red Sequence Galaxies in Abell 2218 with AKARI

Jongwan Ko, Myungshin Im, Hyung Mok Lee +16

We present the {\it AKARI} InfraRed Camera (IRC) imaging observation of early-type galaxies in A2218 at z 0.175. Mid-infrared (MIR) emission from early-type galaxies trace…
