A Wide-Field Survey of the Fornax Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
M. G. Coleman, G. S. Da Costa, J. Bland-Hawthorn +1
The results of a photometric survey of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy are presented herein. Accurate photometry in two colours (V and I) was collected over a 10 square degree a…
The cosmological significance of Low Surface Brightness galaxies found in a deep blind neutral-hydrogen survey
R. F. Minchin, M. J. Disney, Q. A. Parker +16
We have placed limits on the cosmological significance of gas-rich low surface-brightness (LSB) galaxies as a proportion of the total population of gas-rich galaxies by carrying ou…
Scaling Laws for Dark Matter Halos in Late-Type and Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies
John Kormendy, K. C. Freeman
Maximum disk mass models fitted to galaxy rotation curves are used to show that dark matter (DM) halos in late-type and dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies satisfy well defined scalin…
Very Luminous Carbon Stars in the Outer Disk of the Triangulum Spiral Galaxy
D. L. Block, K. C. Freeman, T. H. Jarrett +4
Stars with masses in the range from about 1.3 to 3.5 Mo pass through an evolutionary stage where they become carbon stars. In this stage, which lasts a few Myr, these stars are ext…
Galaxy dynamics with the Planetary Nebula Spectrograph
N. R. Napolitano, A. J. Romanowsky, N. G. Douglas +6
The Planetary Nebula Spectrograph is a dedicated instrument for measuring radial velocity of individual Planetary Nebulae (PNe) in galaxies. This new instrument is providing crucia…
Where are the High Velocity Clouds in Local Group Analogs?
D. J. Pisano, David Barnes, Brad Gibson +3
High-velocity clouds (HVCs) are clouds of HI seen around the Milky Way with velocities inconsistent with Galactic rotation, have unknown distances and masses and controversial orig…
