Journal ArticleDOI
The Globular Cluster System of NGC 1399. I. A Wide-Field Photometric Study
Boris Dirsch,Tom Richtler,Doug Geisler,Juan Carlos Forte,Lilia Patricia Bassino,Wolfgang Gieren +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a photometric investigation of the globular cluster population of NGC 1399, the central galaxy in the Fornax cluster, in Washington C and Kron R filters was performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale study of the ngc 1399 globular cluster system in fornax
Lilia Patricia Bassino,Lilia Patricia Bassino,F. R. Faifer,F. R. Faifer,Juan Carlos Forte,Boris Dirsch,Thomas Richtler,Douglas Geisler,Y. Schuberth +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a photometric study of the globular cluster system of NGC 1399, the central galaxy of the Fornax cluster, is presented, where a large areal coverage is achieved with three adjoining fields of the MOSAIC II Imager at the CTIO 4m telescope.
Journal ArticleDOI
The globular cluster system of NGC 1399. II. Kinematics of a large sample of globular clusters
Thomas Richtler,Boris Dirsch,Karl Gebhardt,Doug Geisler,Michael Hilker,M. V. Alonso,Juan Carlos Forte,Eva K. Grebel,Leopoldo Infante,Søren S. Larsen,Dante Minniti,Marina Rejkuba +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the kinematics and dynamics of the globular cluster system of NGC 1399, the brightest elliptical galaxy near the center of the Fornax cluster of galaxies, were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
The connection between globular cluster systems and the host galaxies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated correlations between the mean colour of the blue and red subpopulations with galaxy velocity dispersion and found that the red subpopulation has similar, and possibly identical, colours to the galaxy halo stars.
Journal ArticleDOI
