Confirmation of an anomalously low dark matter content for the galaxy NGC1052-DF4 from deep, high resolution continuum spectroscopy
Zili Shen, Pieter van Dokkum, Shany Danieli
NGC1052-DF4 was found to be the second "galaxy lacking dark matter" in the NGC1052 group, based on its velocity dispersion of km/s as measured from t…
A candidate runaway supermassive black hole identified by shocks and star formation in its wake
Pieter van Dokkum, Imad Pasha, Maria Luisa Buzzo +13
The interaction of a runaway supermassive black hole (SMBH) with the circumgalactic medium (CGM) can lead to the formation of a wake of shocked gas and young stars behind it. Here…
From Data to Software to Science with the Rubin Observatory LSST
Katelyn Breivik, Andrew J. Connolly, K. E. Saavik Ford +97
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) dataset will dramatically alter our understanding of the Universe, from the origins of the Solar System to the…
A Nascent Tidal Dwarf Galaxy Forming within the Northern HI Streamer of M82
Imad Pasha, Deborah Lokhorst, Pieter G. van Dokkum +12
We identify a 600 pc-wide region of active star formation located within a tidal streamer of M82 via emission ( erg s cm), us…
The Dragonfly Nearby Galaxies Survey. II. Ultra diffuse galaxies near the elliptical galaxy NGC 5485
Allison Merritt, Pieter van Dokkum, Shany Danieli +4
We present the unexpected discovery of four ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in a group environment. We recently identified seven extremely low surface brightness galaxies in the vici…
A High Stellar Velocity Dispersion and ~100 Globular Clusters for the Ultra Diffuse Galaxy Dragonfly 44
Pieter van Dokkum, Roberto Abraham, Jean Brodie +6
Recently a population of large, very low surface brightness, spheroidal galaxies was identified in the Coma cluster. The apparent survival of these Ultra Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs) in…
