Deep MOS Spectroscopy of NGC 1316 Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
The giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 is the brightest galaxy in the Fornax cluster, and displays a number of morphological features that might be interpreted as an intermediate age merger remanent (∼3 Gyr).

ON THE DETERMINATION OF GALAXY STRUCTURE ELLIPTICITY

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2007
We discuss factors influencing the determination of the observed shape of galaxy clusters when the covariance ellipse method is involved. The analysis of 377 Abell clusters show that at greater distances from the cluster center the ellipticity is rather ...

Galactic cannibalism and CDM density profiles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Using N-body simulations we show that the process of formation of the brightest cluster galaxy through dissipationless galactic cannibalism can affect the inner cluster dark matter density profile.

THE DETERMINATION OF THE MORPHOLOGICAL TYPES OF GALAXY CLUSTERS USING CLUSTER CARTOGRAPHY

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2016
We discuss the possibility of using the Cluster Cartography set for the determined the morphological types of galaxy clusters. The applied morphological scheme was proposed by Panko (2013).

CLASH-VLT: The Inner Slope of the MACS J1206.2-0847 Dark Matter Density Profile

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The inner slope ( γ _DM ) of the dark matter (DM) density profile of cosmological halos carries information about the properties of DM and/or baryonic processes affecting the halo gravitational potential.

LINEAR SUBSTRUCTURES IN GALAXY CLUSTERS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2019
We propose detailed scheme that is describing the morphology of linear substructures in galaxy clusters. Our base morphological scheme di- vides galaxy clusters using numerical criteria according the parameters: concentration to the cluster center, the ...

MORPHOLOGICAL TYPES OF 254 RICH PF GALAXY CLUSTERS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2014
We determined the morphological types for 254 rich galaxy clusters from the PF Catalogue of Galaxy Clusters and Groups. The data set contains the PF galaxy clusters, which have no ACO coinciding ones.

The JWST PEARLS View of the El Gordo Galaxy Cluster and of the Structure It Magnifies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The massive galaxy cluster El Gordo ( z = 0.87) imprints multitudes of gravitationally lensed arcs onto James Webb Space Telescope Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) images.

Mind the Gap: Tightening the Mass-Richness Relation with Magnitude Gaps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We investigate the potential to improve optical tracers of cluster mass by exploiting measurements of the magnitude gap, m12, defined as the difference between the r-band absolute magnitude of the two brightest cluster members.

THE ELLIPTICITIES OF GALAXIES IN GALAXY CLUSTERS OF DIFFERENT MORPHOLOGICAL TYPE

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2014
The distribution of galaxy ellipticities was analyzed for 207 rich PF galaxy clusters found in the Munster Red Sky Survey Galaxy Catalogue. Clusters with BM types from a comparison with the ACO catalogue were also classified on the new scheme.
