Observing the Very Low Surface Brightness Dwarfs in a Deep Field In

N. Menci, E. Giallongo, A. Grazian, D. Paris, A. Fontana, and L. Pentericci INAF–Osservatorio Astronomico di Roma, via Frascati 33, 00078 Monteporzio, Italy e-mail: [email protected] Received 24 May 2017 / Accepted 13 June 2017 ABSTRACT 2 We report the discovery of 11 very faint (r . 23), low surface brightness (µr . 27 mag/arcsec ) dwarf galaxies in one deep field in the Virgo cluster, obtained by the prime focus cameras (LBC) at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT). These extend our previous sample to reach a total number of 27 galaxies in a field of just ∼0.17 deg2 located at a median distance of 390 kpc from the cluster centre. The association of such galaxies with the Virgo cluster is supported by their separate position in the central surface brightness – total magnitude plane with respect to the background galaxies of similar total magnitude. For a significant fraction (26%) of the sample, the association to the cluster is confirmed by spectroscopic follow-up. We show that the mere abundance of satellite galaxies corresponding to our observed number in the target field provides extremely tight constraints on dark matter models with suppressed power spectrum compared to the cold dark matter case, independently of the galaxy luminosity distribution. In particular, the requirement that the observed number of satellite galaxies not exceed the predicted abundance of dark matter sub-halos yields a limit of mX ≥ 3 keV at 1-σ and mX ≥ 2:3 keV at 2-σ confidence level for the mass of thermal warm dark matter particles. -

We have matched objects in the GALEX GR1 public release and the first IR1.1 internal release, with the RC3 early-type galaxies having a morphological type À5:5 T < À1:5, with mean error on T < 1:5 and mean error on (B À V )T < 0:05. After visual inspection of each match, we are left with 130 galaxies with reliable GALEX pipeline photometry in the far-UVand near-UV bands. This sample is divided into ellipticals (À5:5 T < À3:5) and lenticulars (À3:5 T < À1:5). After correction for Galactic extinction, the color-color diagrams FUV À NUV versus (B À V )Tc are plotted for the two subsamples. -
Making a Sky Atlas
Appendix A Making a Sky Atlas Although a number of very advanced sky atlases are now available in print, none is likely to be ideal for any given task. Published atlases will probably have too few or too many guide stars, too few or too many deep-sky objects plotted in them, wrong- size charts, etc. I found that with MegaStar I could design and make, specifically for my survey, a “just right” personalized atlas. My atlas consists of 108 charts, each about twenty square degrees in size, with guide stars down to magnitude 8.9. I used only the northernmost 78 charts, since I observed the sky only down to –35°. On the charts I plotted only the objects I wanted to observe. In addition I made enlargements of small, overcrowded areas (“quad charts”) as well as separate large-scale charts for the Virgo Galaxy Cluster, the latter with guide stars down to magnitude 11.4. I put the charts in plastic sheet protectors in a three-ring binder, taking them out and plac- ing them on my telescope mount’s clipboard as needed. To find an object I would use the 35 mm finder (except in the Virgo Cluster, where I used the 60 mm as the finder) to point the ensemble of telescopes at the indicated spot among the guide stars. If the object was not seen in the 35 mm, as it usually was not, I would then look in the larger telescopes. If the object was not immediately visible even in the primary telescope – a not uncommon occur- rence due to inexact initial pointing – I would then scan around for it. -

Beckman2,3 Instituto de Astrof´ısicade Canarias, C/ Via L´acteas/n, 38200 La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain To appear in ApJ Letters ABSTRACT We report evidence for a striking difference between S0 galaxies in the local field and in the Virgo Cluster. While field S0 galaxies have disks whose surface-brightness profiles are roughly equally divided between the three main types (Types I, II, and III: single-exponential, truncated, and antitruncated), Virgo S0s appear to be entirely lacking in disk truncations. More specifically, the fraction of trunca- +7 +4 tions in S0 galaxies with MB < −17 is 28−6% for the field, versus 0−0% for the Virgo Cluster galaxies; the difference is significant at the 99.7% level. The discrepancy is made up almost entirely by Type I profiles, which are almost twice as frequent in the Virgo Cluster as they are in the field. This suggests that S0 formation may be driven by different processes in cluster and field environ- ments, and that outer-disk effects can be useful tests of S0 formation models.

X-Ray Constraints on the Hot Gas Content of Early-Type Galaxies In
Draft version July 12, 2021 Typeset using LATEX preprint style in AASTeX63 X-ray Constraints on the Hot Gas Content of Early-type Galaxies in Virgo Meicun Hou,1,2 Zhiyuan Li,1,2 Christine Jones,3 William Forman,3 and Yuanyuan Su4 1School of Astronomy and Space Science, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210046, China 2Key Laboratory of Modern Astronomy and Astrophysics (Nanjing University), Ministry of Education, Nanjing 210046, China 3Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA 4Department of Physics & Astronomy, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506, USA ABSTRACT We present a systematic study of the diffuse hot gas around early-type galaxies (ETGs) residing in the Virgo cluster, based on archival Chandra observations. Our representative sample consists of 79 galaxies with low-to-intermediate stellar masses 9−11 (M∗ ≈ 10 M⊙), a mass range that has not been extensively explored with X-ray observations thus far. We detect diffuse X-ray emission in only eight galaxies and find that in five cases a substantial fraction of the detected emission can be unambiguously attributed to truly diffuse hot gas, based on their spatial distribution and spectral properties. For the individually non-detected galaxies, we constrain their average X- ray emission by performing a stacking analysis, finding a specific X-ray luminosity of 28 −1 −1 LX/M∗ ∼ 10 erg s M⊙ , which is consistent with unresolved stellar populations. The apparent paucity of truly diffuse hot gas in these low- and intermediate-mass ETGs may be the result of efficient ram pressure stripping by the hot intra-cluster medium. However, we also find no significant diffuse hot gas in a comparison sample of 57 field ETGs of similar stellar masses, for which archival Chandra observations with similar sensitivity are available.
