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…
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: stellar population gradients of central galaxies
Giulia Santucci, Sarah Brough, Nicholas Scott +10
We examine the stellar population radial gradients (age, metallicity and [Fe]) of 100 passive central galaxies up to . The targeted groups have a halo mass r…
Surface Brightness Fluctuation spectra to constrain stellar population properties
A. Vazdekis, M. Cerviño, M. Montes +2
We present a new set of Surface Brightness Fluctuation spectra computed with the E-MILES stellar population synthesis models. The model SBF spectra cover the range 1680-50000 Angst…
The BUFFALO HST Survey
Charles L. Steinhardt, Mathilde Jauzac, Ana Acebron +91
The Beyond Ultra-deep Frontier Fields and Legacy Observations (BUFFALO) is a 101 orbit + 101 parallel Cycle 25 Hubble Space Telescope Treasury program taking data from 2018-2020. B…
The Vera Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time and the Low Surface Brightness Universe
Sarah Brough, Chris Collins, Ricardo Demarco +6
The 8.4m Vera Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will start a ten-year survey of the southern hemisphere sky in 2023. LSST will revolutionise low surface brig…
