The buildup of the intracluster light of Abell 85 as seen by Subaru's Hyper Suprime-Cam

Mireia Montes, Sarah Brough, Matt S. Owers +1

The study of low surface brightness light in large, deep imaging surveys is still uncharted territory as automated data reduction pipelines over-subtract or eliminate this light. U…

Galactic cirri in deep optical imaging

Javier Román, Ignacio Trujillo, Mireia Montes

The presence of Galactic cirri in deep optical observations is one of the most challenging problems that the extragalactic community is already facing, and it is expected to be eve…

Stellar splashback: the edge of the intracluster light

Alis J. Deason, Kyle A. Oman, Azadeh Fattahi +8

We examine the outskirts of galaxy clusters in the C-EAGLE simulations to quantify the `edges' of the stellar and dark matter distribution. The radius of the steepest slope in the…

The galaxy "missing dark matter" NGC1052-DF4 is undergoing tidal disruption

Mireia Montes, Raúl Infante-Sainz, Alberto Madrigal-Aguado +4

The existence of long-lived galaxies lacking dark matter represents a challenge to our understanding of how galaxies form. Here, we present evidence that explains the lack of dark…

Surface Brightness Fluctuations for constraining the chemical enrichment of massive galaxies

A. Vazdekis, P. Rodríguez-Beltrán, M. Cerviño +3

Based on very deep photometry, Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) have been traditionally used to determine galaxy distances. We have recently computed SBF spectra of stellar po…

Reconstructing the mass accretion histories of nearby Red Nuggets with their globular cluster systems

Michael A. Beasley, Ryan Leaman, Ignacio Trujillo +6

It is generally recognized that massive galaxies form through a combination of in-situ collapse and ex-situ accretion. The in-situ component forms early, where gas collapse and com…
