Multicolour-metallicity Relations from Globular Clusters in NGC 4486 (M87)

Juan C. Forte, Favio R. Faifer, E. Irene Vega +4

We present Gemini griz photometry for 521 globular cluster (GC) candidates in a 5.5 x 5.5 arcmin field centered 3.8 arcmin to the south and 0.9 arcmin to the west of the center of…

Evolutionary properties of the low-luminosity galaxy population in the NGC5044 Group

A. Buzzoni, S. A. Cellone, P. Saracco +1

With this third paper of a series we present Johnson-Gunn B,g,V,r,i,z multicolour photometry for 79 objects, including a significant fraction of the faintest galaxies around NGC504…

Galaxy populations in the Antlia cluster - III. Properties of faint early-type galaxies

Analia V. Smith Castelli, Sergio A. Cellone, Favio R. Faifer +5

(Abridge) We present a new analysis of the early-type galaxy population in the central region of the Antlia cluster, focusing on the faint systems like dwarf ellipticals (dE) and d…

Two confirmed compact elliptical galaxies in the Antlia cluster

Analia V. Smith Castelli, Favio R. Faifer, Lilia P. Bassino +3

We confirm the existence of two compact elliptical (cE) galaxies in the central region of the Antlia cluster through MAGELLAN-MIKE and GEMINI-GMOS spectra. Only about a dozen galax…

GEMINI-GMOS spectroscopy in the Antlia cluster

F. Faifer, A. Smith Castelli, L. P. Bassino +2

We present preliminary results of a spectroscopic study performed in the Antlia cluster through GEMINI-GMOS data. We derived new radial velocities that allow us to confirm the clus…

A common colour-magnitude relation from giant elliptical galaxies to globular clusters?

A. V. Smith Castelli, L. P. Bassino, T. Richtler +3

We discuss the existence of a common colour-magnitude relation (CMR) of metal-poor globular clusters and early-type galaxies, i.e. giant ellipticals, normal ellipticals and lenticu…
