The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XXXIV. Ultracompact Dwarf Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2020 We present a study of ultracompact dwarf (UCD) galaxies in the Virgo cluster based mainly on imaging from the Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). Using ∼100 deg2 of u*giz imaging, we have identified more than 600 candidate UCDs, from the core of

The Extended Virgo Cluster Catalog [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2014 We present a new catalog of galaxies in the wider region of the Virgo cluster, based on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7. The Extended Virgo Cluster Catalog (EVCC) covers an area of 725 deg^2 or 60.1 Mpc^2.

Virgo Filaments. I. Processing of gas in cosmological filaments around the Virgo cluster [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 It is now well established that galaxies have different morphology, gas content and star formation rate in dense environments like galaxy clusters.

The GALEX Ultraviolet Virgo Cluster Survey (GUViCS) [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2020 Aims. We present the first detection of diffuse dust in the intra-cluster medium of the Virgo cluster out to ∼0.4 virial radii, and study the radial variation of its properties on a radial scale of the virial radius. Methods.

Globular Cluster Formation in the Virgo Cluster [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2014 Metal poor globular clusters (MPGCs) are a unique probe of the early universe, in particular the reionization era. Systems of globular clusters in galaxy clusters are particularly interesting as it is in the progenitors of galaxy clusters that the ...

The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey: I. Luminosity functions [PDF]
Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2010 We describe the Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey (HeViCS) and the first data obtained as part of the Science Demonstration Phase (SDP). The data cover a central 4x4 sq deg region of the cluster. We use SPIRE and PACS photometry data to produce 100, 160, 250,

The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XXXII. A Search for Globular Cluster Substructures in the Virgo Galaxy Cluster Core [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2018 Substructure in globular cluster (GC) populations around large galaxies is expected in galaxy formation scenarios that involve accretion or merger events, and it has been searched for using direct associations between GCs and structure in the diffuse ...

THE NEXT GENERATION VIRGO CLUSTER SURVEY. XXII. SHELL FEATURE EARLY-TYPE DWARF GALAXIES IN THE VIRGO CLUSTER [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2016 The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey is a deep (with a 2σ detection limit μg = 29 mag arcsec−2 in the g-band) optical panchromatic survey targeting the Virgo cluster from its core to virial radius, for a total areal coverage of 104 square degrees. As

THE NEXT GENERATION VIRGO CLUSTER SURVEY. VI. THE KINEMATICS OF ULTRA-COMPACT DWARFS AND GLOBULAR CLUSTERS IN M87 [PDF]
, 2015 The origin of ultra-compact dwarfs (UCDs; rh ≳ 10 pc)—objects larger and more massive than typical globular clusters (GCs), but more compact than typical dwarf galaxies—has been hotly debated in the 15 years since their discovery.
