Complexity on Small Scales: The Metallicity Distribution of the Carina Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
A. Koch, E. K. Grebel, R. F. G. Wyse +5
The Carina dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy is the only galaxy of this type that shows clearly episodic star formation separated by long pauses. Here we present metallicities for 437…
A Search for PNe in Nearby Galaxies with SDSS Imaging Data
Alexei Y. Kniazev, Eva K. Grebel, Daniel B. Zucker +4
We present the latest results from our project to search for new planetary nebulae in nearby galaxies using Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging data. Our method is based on pho…
A Catalog of Edge-on Disk Galaxies: From Galaxies with a Bulge to Superthin Galaxies
S. J. Kautsch, E. K. Grebel, F. D. Barazza +1
The formation and evolution of disk-dominated galaxies is difficult to explain, yet these objects exist. We therefore embarked on a study aimed at a better understanding of these e…
Near-Field Cosmology with Local Group Dwarf Spheroidals
Eva K. Grebel
The Local Group offers an excellent laboratory for near-field cosmology by permitting us to use the resolved stellar content of its constituent galaxies as probes of galaxy formati…
The Anisotropic Distribution of M 31 Satellite Galaxies: A Polar Great Plane of Early-Type Companions
A. Koch, E. K. Grebel
The highly anisotropic distribution and apparent alignment of the Galactic satellites in polar great planes begs the question how common such distributions are. The satellite syste…
Stellar Populations in the Local Group of Galaxies
Eva K. Grebel
The characteristics and properties of the stellar populations and evolutionary histories of Local Group galaxies are summarized and compared to predictions of cosmological models.…
