Discovery of two M32 twins in Abell 1689
S. Mieske, L. Infante, M. Hilker +5
The M31 satellite galaxy M32 has long been considered an object of unique properties, being the most extreme example of the very rare compact elliptical galaxy class. Here we prese…
Strong Lensing Analysis of A1689 from Deep Advanced Camera Images
Tom Broadhurst, Narciso Benitez, Dan Coe +6
We analyse deep multi-colour Advanced Camera images of the largest known gravitational lens, A1689. Radial and tangential arcs delineate the critical curves in unprecedented detail…
Ultra Compact Dwarf galaxies in Abell 1689: a photometric study with the ACS
S. Mieske, L. Infante, N. Benitez +37
The properties of Ultra Compact Dwarf (UCD) galaxy candidates in Abell 1689 (z=0.183) are investigated, based on deep high resolution ACS images. A UCD candidate has to be unresolv…
