Fuzzy Galaxies or Cirrus? Decomposition of Galactic Cirrus in Deep Wide-Field Images
Qing Liu, Roberto Abraham, Peter G. Martin +12
Diffuse Galactic cirrus, or Diffuse Galactic Light (DGL), can be a prominent component in the background of deep wide-field imaging surveys. The DGL provides unique insights into t…
Testing the Bullet Dwarf Collision Scenario in the NGC 1052 Group Through Morphologies and Stellar Populations
Yimeng Tang, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Pieter G. van Dokkum +8
NGC 1052-DF2 and -DF4 are two ultra-diffuse galaxies that have been reported as deficient in dark matter and associated with the same galaxy group. Recent findings suggest that DF2…
Merian: A Wide-Field Imaging Survey of Dwarf Galaxies at z~0.06-0.10
Shany Danieli, Erin Kado-Fong, Song Huang +32
We present the Merian Survey, an optical imaging survey optimized for studying the physical properties of bright star-forming dwarf galaxies. Merian is carried out with two medium-…
A Nonparametric Morphological Analysis of H Emission in Bright Dwarfs Using the Merian Survey
Abby Mintz, Jenny E. Greene, Erin Kado-Fong +10
Using medium-band imaging from the newly released Merian Survey, we conduct a nonparametric morphological analysis of H emission maps and stellar continua for a sample of galaxi…
Discovery of Two Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies with Unusually Bright Globular Cluster Luminosity Functions via a Mark-Dependently Thinned Point Process (MATHPOP)
Dayi Li, Gwendolyn Eadie, Patrick Brown +8
We present \textsc{Mathpop}, a novel method to infer the globular cluster (GC) counts in ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) and low-surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs). Many known UDGs…
Hedgehog: An Isolated Quiescent Dwarf Galaxy at 2.4 Mpc
Jiaxuan Li, Jenny E. Greene, Scott G. Carlsten +1
It is well-known that almost all isolated dwarf galaxies are actively forming stars. We report the discovery of dw1322m2053 (nicknamed Hedgehog), an isolated quiescent dwarf galaxy…
