The Nature of UCDs: Internal Dynamics from an Expanded Sample and Homogeneous Database
Steffen Mieske, Michael Hilker, Andres Jordan +9
We have obtained high-resolution spectra of 23 ultra-compact dwarf galaxies (UCDs) in the Fornax cluster with -10.4>M_V>-13.5 mag (10^6<M/M_*<10^8), using FLAMES/Giraffe at the VLT…
The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. II. The Central Brightness Profiles of Early-Type Galaxies: A Characteristic Radius on Nuclear Scales and the Transition from Central Luminosity Deficit to Excess
Patrick Cote, Laura Ferrarese, Andres Jordan +9
We analyse HST surface brightness profiles for 143 early-type galaxies in the Virgo and Fornax Clusters. Sersic models provide accurate descriptions of the global profiles with a n…
Infrared Emission from the Nearby Cool Core Cluster Abell 2597
Megan Donahue, Andres Jordan, Stefi A. Baum +9
We observed the brightest central galaxy (BCG) in the nearby (z=0.0821) cool core galaxy cluster Abell 2597 with the IRAC and MIPS instruments on board the Spitzer Space Telescope.…
The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. XIII. SBF Distance Catalog and the Three-Dimensional Structure of the Virgo Cluster
Simona Mei, John Blakeslee, Patrick Cote +7
The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey consists of HST ACS imaging for 100 early-type galaxies in the Virgo Cluster, observed in the F475W and F850LP filters. We derive distances for 84 of t…
The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. XII. The Luminosity Function of Globular Clusters in Early Type Galaxies
Andres Jordan, Dean E. McLaughlin, Patrick Cote +7
We analyze the luminosity function of the globular clusters (GCs) belonging to the early-type galaxies observed in the ACS Virgo Cluster Survey. We have obtained estimates for a Ga…
The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. I. Introduction to the Survey and Data Reduction Procedures
Andres Jordan, John P. Blakeslee, Patrick Cote +7
The Fornax Cluster is a conspicuous cluster of galaxies in the southern hemisphere and the second largest collection of early-type galaxies within <~ 20 Mpc after the Virgo Cluster…
