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…
Near-Infrared photometry of carbon stars in the Sagittarius dwarf irregular galaxy and DDO 210
M. Gullieuszik, M. Rejkuba, M. R. Cioni +2
We investigate the intermediate-age asymptotic giant branch stellar population of two Local Group dwarf irregular galaxies to characterize their carbon star population in near-infr…
Millimagnitude Photometry for Transiting Extrasolar Planetary Candidates IV: The Puzzle of the Extremely Red OGLE-TR-82 Primary Solved
Sergio Hoyer, Sebastian Ramirez Alegria, Valentin D. Ivanov +12
We present precise new V, I, and K-band photometry for the planetary transit candidate star OGLE-TR-82. Good seeing V-band images acquired with VIMOS instrument at ESO VLT allowed…
Bright globular clusters in NGC 5128: the missing link between young massive clusters and evolved massive objects
M. Rejkuba, P. Dubath, D. Minniti +1
In order to investigate whether the brightest globular clusters (GCs) in the giant elliptical galaxies are similar to the less luminous GCs like those found in Local Group galaxies…
Properties of RR Lyrae stars in the inner regions of the Large Magellanic Cloud. II. The extended sample
J. Borissova, D. Minniti, M. Rejkuba +1
All galaxies that have been adequately examined so far have shown an extended stellar halo. To search for such a halo in the LMC we have obtained low-resolution spectra for 100 LMC…
Dwarf elliptical galaxies in Centaurus A group: stellar populations in AM 1339-445 and AM 1343-452
M. Rejkuba, G. S. Da Costa, H. Jerjen +2
We study the red giant populations of two dE galaxies, AM 1339-445 and AM 1343-452, with the aim of investigating the number and luminosity of any upper asymptotic giant branch (AG…
