The ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury. X. Quantifying the Star Cluster Formation Efficiency of Nearby Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yes, 2012
We study the relationship between the field star formation and cluster formation properties in a large sample of nearby dwarf galaxies. We use optical data from the Hubble Space Telescope and from ground-based telescopes to derive the ages and masses of ...

PEARLS: Globular Clusters and Ultracompact Dwarfs in the El Gordo Galaxies at z = 0.87

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
JWST/NIRCam 0.9 to 2.0 μ m images reveal a population of point sources around the major galaxies in the El Gordo cluster at redshift z = 0.87. Their distribution in the color–magnitude diagrams shows a narrow sequence well separated from field-galaxy ...

XRISM Reveals Low Nonthermal Pressure in the Core of the Hot, Relaxed Galaxy Cluster A2029

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present XRISM Resolve observations of the core of the hot, relaxed galaxy cluster Abell 2029 (A2029). We find that the line-of-sight bulk velocity of the intracluster medium (ICM) within the central 180 kpc is at rest with respect to the brightest ...

Weak-lensing Characterization of the Dark Matter in 29 Merging Clusters that Exhibit Radio Relics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present a multiwavelength analysis of 29 merging galaxy clusters that exhibit radio relics. For each merging system, we perform a weak-lensing analysis on Subaru optical imaging.

On the Merging Cluster Abell 578 and Its Central Radio Galaxy 4C +67.13

open access: yes, 2015
Here we analyze radio, optical, and X-ray data for a peculiar cluster Abell 578. This cluster is not fully relaxed and consists of two merging sub-systems.

Fundamental parameters of brightest cluster galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1991
Photometry and spectroscopy of a sample of the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) are presented, and the relationships between scale length, surface brightness, velocity dispersion, and line strength are determined and compared with the relations determined for lower luminosity ellipticals (LLEs).

Correlations in Relaxed Clusters of Galaxies

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2014
The correlations among different quantities in galaxy clusters, observed by Newman et al. (2013a,b), are investigated. We find an anti-correlation among the slope α, the effective radius, Re, and a correlation among the core radius rcore and Re. Moreover,
