The formation and disruption of globular cluster populations in simulations of present-day galaxies with controlled assembly histories
Oliver Newton, Jonathan J. Davies, Joel Pfeffer +4
Globular clusters (GCs) are sensitive tracers of galaxy assembly histories but interpreting the information they encode is challenging because mergers are thought to promote both t…
The cosmic globular cluster formation history in the E-MOSAICS simulations
Philipp S. Joschko, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Sebastian Trujillo-Gomez +4
We present a comprehensive analysis of globular cluster (GC) formation and evolution across the Mpc volume of the E-MOSAICS galaxy formation simulations. Defining GCs as…
Comparing E-MOSAICS predictions of high-redshift proto-globular clusters with JWST observations in lensed galaxies
Joel Pfeffer, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +8
High-resolution imaging and strong gravitational lensing of high-redshift galaxies have enabled the detection of compact sources with properties similar to nearby massive star clus…
The PIPER Survey. II. The Globular Cluster Systems of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies in the Perseus Cluster
Steven R. Janssens, Duncan A. Forbes, Aaron J. Romanowsky +7
We present Hubble Space Telescope ACS/WFC and WFC3/UVIS imaging for a sample of 50 low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the 10 M Perseus cluster, which w…
