Revisiting the Size-Luminosity Relation in the Era of Ultra Diffuse Galaxies
Shany Danieli, Pieter van Dokkum
Galaxies are generally found to follow a relation between their size and luminosity, such that luminous galaxies typically have large sizes. The recent identification of a signific…
The Distance of the Dark Matter Deficient Galaxy NGC1052-DF2
Pieter van Dokkum, Shany Danieli, Yotam Cohen +2
We recently inferred that the galaxy NGC1052-DF2 has little or no dark matter and a rich system of unusual globular clusters. We assumed that the galaxy is a satellite of the lumin…
A Deficit of Dark Matter from Jeans Modeling of the Ultra-diffuse Galaxy NGC 1052-DF2
Asher Wasserman, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Jean Brodie +5
The discovery of the ultra-diffuse galaxy NGC 1052-DF2 and its peculiar population of star clusters has raised new questions about the connections between galaxies and dark matter…
The Dragonfly Nearby Galaxies Survey. V. HST/ACS Observations of 23 Low Surface Brightness Objects in the Fields of NGC1052, NGC1084, M96, and NGC4258
Yotam Cohen, Pieter van Dokkum, Shany Danieli +8
We present HST/ACS imaging of twenty-three very low surface brightness (=25-27.5) galaxies detected in the fields of four nearby galaxy groups. These objects were selected…
A Revised Velocity for the Globular Cluster GC-98 in the Ultra Diffuse Galaxy NGC1052-DF2
Pieter van Dokkum, Yotam Cohen, Shany Danieli +9
We recently published velocity measurements of luminous globular clusters in the galaxy NGC1052-DF2, concluding that it lies far off the canonical stellar mass - halo mass relation…
The Maybe Stream: A Possible Cold Stellar Stream in the Ultra-Diffuse Galaxy NGC1052-DF2
Roberto Abraham, Shany Danieli, Pieter van Dokkum +10
We report tentative evidence for a cold stellar stream in the ultra-diffuse galaxy NGC1052-DF2. If confirmed, this stream (which we refer to as "The Maybe Stream") would be the fir…
