The Globular Cluster Luminosity Function as a Distance Indicator : Dynamical
The dynamical evolution of the globular cluster systems in galaxies is predicted, based on the standard dynamical theory normalized to the example of the Milky Way. The major processes varying with the galactocentric distance are the tidal shocks and dynamical friction. Our simple model explains, on a quantitative basis, the observed diierences of the inner and outer populations of globular clu...
متن کاملStellar Populations in the Central Galaxies of Fossil Groups
It is inferred from the symmetrical and luminous X-ray emission of fossil groups that they are mature, relaxed galaxy systems. Cosmological simulations and observations focusing on their dark halo and inter-galactic medium properties confirm their early formation. Recent photometric observations suggest that, unlike the majority of non-fossil brightest group galaxies (BGGs), the central early-t...

متن کاملCluster luminosity function and n th ranked magnitude as a distance indicator ⋆ ⋆ ⋆
We define here a standard candle to determine the distance of clusters of galaxies and to investigate their peculiar velocities by using the n rank galaxy (magnitude mn). We address the question of the universality of the luminosity function for a sample of 28 rich clusters of galaxies (cz≃20000 km.s) in order to model the influence on mn of cluster richness. This luminosity function is found t...
متن کاملThe galaxy stellar mass function of X-ray detected groups
We study the stellar mass distribution for galaxies in 160 X-ray detected groups of 1013 < Log(M200/M ) < 2 × 1014 and compare it with that of galaxies in the field to investigate the action of environment on the build-up of the stellar mass. We highlight differences in the build-up of the passive population in the field, which imprint features in the distribution of stellar mass of passive gal...
