The haloes and environments of nearby galaxies (HERON) -- III. A 45 kpc spiral structure in the GLSB galaxy UGC 4599
Aleksandr V. Mosenkov, R. Michael Rich, Michael Fusco +10
We use a 0.7-m telescope in the framework of the Halos and Environments of Nearby Galaxies (HERON) survey to probe low surface brightness structures in nearby galaxies. One of our…
The changing material around (2060) Chiron from an occultation on 2022 December 15
J. L. Ortiz, C. L. Pereira, B. Sicardy +30
We could accurately predict the shadow path and successfully observe an occultation of a bright star by Chiron on 2022 December 15. The Kottamia Astronomical Observatory in Egypt d…
Quantified diffuse light in compact groups of galaxies
Denis Poliakov, Aleksandr V. Mosenkov, Noah Brosch +2
The vast majority of stars in galaxy groups are contained within their constituent galaxies. Some small fraction of stars is expected, however, to follow the global dark matter pot…
The Halos and Environments of Nearby Galaxies (HERON) II: The outer structure of edge-on galaxies
Aleksandr Mosenkov, R. Michael Rich, Andreas Koch +6
The HERON project is aimed at studying halos and low surface brightness details near galaxies. In this second HERON paper we consider in detail deep imaging (down to surface bright…
Closing gaps to our origins. The UV window into the Universe
Ana I. Gomez de Castro, Martin A. Barstow, Fréderic Baudin +23
The investigation of the emergence of life is a major endeavour of science. Astronomy is contributing to it in three fundamental manners: (1) by measuring the chemical enrichment o…
Structure of Brightest Cluster Galaxies and Intracluster Light
M. Kluge, B. Neureiter, A. Riffeser +6
Observations of 170 local () galaxy clusters in the northern hemisphere have been obtained with the Wendelstein Telescope Wide Field Imager (WWFI). We correct for sy…
