Galaxy Photometry in the Cluster Shakhbazian I
نویسنده
چکیده
Newly obtained photoelectric V magnitudes for three galaxies in Shakhbazian I, when combined with the virial analysis of Robinson and Wampler, show that the cluster mass-to-luminosity ratio is WL ~ 4. The first brightest galaxy in the cluster (an elliptical) has (U—B) and (B—V) color indices which are consistent with those of normal ellipticals in the Virgo and Coma clusters, and it is suggested that the galaxies in Shakhbazian I are not compact galaxies.

Pulsating red giant and supergiant stars in the Local Group dwarf galaxy Andromeda I
We have conducted an optical long-term monitoring survey of the majority of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group, with the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT), to identify the long period variable (LPV) stars. LPV stars vary on timescales of months to years, and reach the largest amplitudes of their brightness variations at optical wavelengths, due to the changing temperature. They trace stellar populati...

متن کاملGlobular Cluster Systems in the Hydra I Galaxy Cluster
In this contribution, first results of deep VLT photometry (V,I) in the central region of the Hydra I galaxy cluster are presented. Many star clusters have been identified not only around several earlytype galaxies, but also in the intra-cluster field, as far as 250 kpc from the cluster center. Outside the bulges of the central galaxies NGC 3311 and NGC 3309, the intra-cluster globular cluster ...
متن کاملOptical ( VRI ) Photometry in the Field of the Galaxy Cluster AC 118 at z = 0 . 31 ⋆
We present new photometric V-, R-and I-band data for the rich galaxy cluster AC 118 at z = 0.31. The new photometry covers an area of 8.6×8.6 arcmin 2 , corresponding to 2.9×2.9 Mpc 2 (H0 = 50 km s −1 Mpc −1 , q0 = 0.5 and Λ = 0). The data have been collected for a project aimed at studying galaxy evolution through the color-magnitude relation and the fundamental plane. We provide a catalogue i...
متن کاملGlobular Clusters in nearby Galaxy Clusters
The discovery of a large population of intra-cluster star clusters in the central region of the Hydra I and Centaurus galaxy clusters is presented. Based on deep VLT photometry (V, I), many star clusters have been identified not only around the early-type galaxies, but also in the intra-cluster field, as far as 250 kpc from the galaxy centres. These intra-cluster globulars are predominantly blu...
