TL;DR: In this article, the authors present new g-and r-band mosaics of the SW group of the Fornax Cluster, which cover an area of 3 × 2 square degrees around the central galaxy NGC 1316.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the observing strategy, data reduction tools, and early results of a supernova search project, named SUDARE, conducted with the ESO VST telescope, which is aimed at measuring the rate of the different types of SNe in the redshift range 0.2 < z < 0.8.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Fornax Deep Survey (FDS) dwarf galaxy catalog as discussed by the authors was used to study the galaxies down to r'-band magnitude m(r') approximate to 21 mag (M-r' approximate to -10.5 mag), which opens a new parameter regime to investigate the evolution of dwarf galaxies in the cluster environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the discovery of a complex extended density enhancement in the Globular Clusters (GCs) in the central similar to 0.5(degrees) 2 (similar to 2.06 Mpc(2)) of the Fornax cluster, corresponding to roughly 50% of the area within 1 core radius.
