The Puzzling Origin of Massive Compact Galaxies in MaNGA

A. Schnorr-Müller, M. Trevisan, R. Riffel +7

We characterized the kinematics, morphology, and stellar population (SP) properties of a sample of massive compact quiescent galaxies (MCGs, /$M_\odot \le…

Globular Cluster Systems of Relic Galaxies

Karla A. Alamo-Martínez, Ana L. Chies-Santos, Michael A. Beasley +6

We analyse the globular cluster (GC) systems of a sample of 15 massive, compact early-type galaxies (ETGs), 13 of which have already been identified as good relic galaxy candidates…

Spectroscopy of NGC 4258 globular cluster candidates: membership confirmation and kinematics

Rosa A. Gonzaléz-Lópezlira, Y. D. Mayya, Laurent Loinard +9

We present multi-object spectroscopic observations of 23 globular cluster candidates (GCCs) in the prototypical megamaser galaxy NGC 4258, carried out with the OSIRIS instrument at…

The Next Generation Fornax Survey (NGFS): V. Discovery of a dwarf-dwarf galaxy pair at z=0.30 and its characterization using deep VLT/MUSE observations

Evelyn J. Johnston, Paul Eigenthaler, Thomas Puzia +11

We report the detection of a pair of dwarf galaxies at which may be in the early stages of an interaction. Both galaxies have stellar masses of , and d…

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) XXXI. The kinematics of intra-cluster globular clusters in the core of the Virgo cluster

Alessia Longobardi, Eric W. Peng, Patrick Côté +21

Intra-cluster (IC) populations are expected to be a natural result of the hierarchical assembly of clusters, yet their low space densities make them difficult to detect and study.…

Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XXXII:~Search for a Globular Cluster Substructure in the Virgo Galaxy Cluster Core

Mathieu Powalka, Thomas H. Puzia, Ariane Lançon +19

Substructure in globular cluster (GC) populations around large galaxies is expected in galaxy formation scenarios that involve accretion or merger events, and it has been searched…

The relation between globular cluster systems and supermassive black holes in spiral galaxies. The case study of NGC 4258

Rosa A. González-Lópezlira, Luis Lomelí-Núñez, Karla Álamo-Martínez +7

We aim to explore the relationship between globular cluster total number, , and central black hole mass, , in spiral galaxies, and compare it with that recen…

New Constraints on a complex relation between globular cluster colors and environment

Mathieu Powalka, Thomas H. Puzia, Ariane Lançon +25

We present an analysis of high-quality photometry for globular clusters (GCs) in the Virgo cluster core region, based on data from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) p…

The Most Massive Ultra-Compact Dwarf Galaxy in the Virgo Cluster

Chengze Liu, Eric W. Peng, Elisa Toloba +15

We report on the properties of the most massive ultra-compact dwarf galaxy (UCD) in the nearby Virgo Cluster of galaxies using imaging from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey…
