The galactic acceleration scale is imprinted on globular cluster systems of early-type galaxies of most masses and on red and blue globular cluster subpopulations

Michal Bílek, Michael Hilker, Florent Renaud +3

Context. Globular clusters (GCs) carry information about the formation histories and gravitational fields of their host galaxies. Bílek et al. (2019, BSR19 hereafter) reported that…

Expanding on the Fundamental Metallicity Relation in Dwarf Galaxies with MUSE

Teodora-Elena Bulichi, Katja Fahrion, François Mernier +10

The mass-metallicity relation (MZR) represents one of the most important scaling relations in the context of galaxy evolution, comprising a positive correlation between stellar mas…

Ultra diffuse galaxies in the Hydra I cluster from the LEWIS Project: Phase-Space distribution and globular cluster richness

Duncan Forbes, Jonah Gannon, Enrichetta Iodice +18

Although ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are found in large numbers in clusters of galaxies, the role of the cluster environment in shaping their low surface brightness and large siz…

Do old globular clusters in low mass galaxies disprove modified gravity?

Michal Bílek, Hongsheng Zhao, Benoit Famaey +6

The controversy "dark matter vs. modified gravity" constitutes a major topic of discussion. It was proposed that dynamical friction could be used to discriminate between the two al…

The SAMI-Fornax Dwarfs Survey III: Evolution of [/Fe] in dwarfs, from Galaxy Clusters to the Local Group

J. Romero-Gómez, Reynier F. Peletier, J. A. L. Aguerri +10

Using very deep, high spectral resolution data from the SAMI Integral Field Spectrograph we study the stellar population properties of a sample of dwarf galaxies in the Fornax Clus…
