We present results obtained from spectroscopic observations of red giants located in the fields of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) globular clusters (GCs) NGC 1928 and NGC 1939. We used the GMOS and AAOmega+2dF spectrographs to obtain…
Context. Open clusters are very good tracers of the evolution of the Galactic disc. Thanks to Gaia, their kinematics can be investigated with an unprecedented precision and accuracy. Aims. The distribution of open clusters in the 6D phase…
(Abridge) We present a new analysis of the early-type galaxy population in the central region of the Antlia cluster, focusing on the faint systems like dwarf ellipticals (dE) and dwarf spheroidals (dSph). We confirm 22 early-type galaxies…
By using the ENACS data, we have studied the properties of emission-line galaxies (ELG) in clusters. The fraction of ELG in clusters is 16~%; this fraction is slightly dependent on the cluster velocity dispersion, being larger for…
We present a detailed dynamical analysis of the rich galaxy cluster A2744, containing a powerful diffuse radio halo.Our analysis is based on redshift data for 102 galaxies, part of them recovered from unexplored spectra in the ESO archive.…
Optical multi-slit spectra have been obtained for 47 globular clusters surrounding the brightest Virgo elliptical NGC 4472 (M49). Including data from the literature, we analyze velocities for a total sample of 57 clusters and present the…
We are undertaking a large scale radial velocity survey of the Galactic bulge which uses M giant stars selected from the 2MASS catalog as targets for the CTIO 4m Hydra multi-object spectrograph. The aim of this survey is to test dynamical…
We report millimeter/submillimeter continuum and molecular line observations of the Galactic super star cluster RCW 38, obtained from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array with a minimum angular resolution of $0''.17\times0''.15$…
Globular clusters are useful to test the validity of Newtonian dynamics in the low acceleration regime typical of galaxies, without the complications of non-baryonic dark matter. Specifically, in absence of disturbing effects, e.g. tidal…
Gas and star velocity dispersions have been derived for eight circumnuclear star-forming regions (CNSFRs) and the nucleus of the spiral galaxy NGC3310 using high resolution spectroscopy in the blue and far red. Stellar velocity dispersions…
We present the results of determining the parameters characterizing the shape and orientation of residual velocity ellipsoids from the Gaia DR3 red giants and subgiants. We show the distribution of velocity dispersions in the Galactic plane…
We present velocity dispersion measurements of 14 globular clusters in NGC 5128 (Centarus A) obtained with the MIKE echelle spectrograph on the 6.5m Magellan Clay telescope. These clusters are among the most luminous globular clusters in…
We present improved values of the three components of the absolute space velocity of the open cluster NGC6791. One HST ACS/WFC field with two-epoch observations provides astrometric measurements of objects in a field containing the cluster…
We present the peculiar in-plane velocities derived from the LAMOST red clump stars, which are purified and separated by a novel approach into two groups with different ages. The samples are mostly contributed around the Galactic…
The velocity distribution of galaxies in clusters is not universal; rather, galaxies are segregated according to their spectral type and relative luminosity. We examine the velocity distributions of different populations of galaxies within…
We present the results of seven Suzaku mosaic observations (>200 ks in total) of the nearest non-cool core cluster, the Antlia Cluster (or Group), beyond its degree-scale virial radius in its eastern direction. The temperature is consistent…
We have used the two-degree field (2dF) multi-fibre spectrograph of the Anglo-Australian Telescope to search for candidate members of the unusual globular cluster omega Centauri at and beyond the cluster tidal radius. Velocities with an…
A detailed dynamical analysis of the nearby rich Norma cluster (ACO 3627) is presented. From radial velocities of 296 cluster members, we find a mean velocity of 4871 +/- 54 km/s and a velocity dispersion of 925 km/s. The mean velocity of…
We present here central velocity dispersion measurements for 325 early-type galaxies in eight clusters and groups of galaxies, including new observations for 212 galaxies. The clusters and groups are the A262, A1367, Coma (A1656), A2634,…
Aims. This work considers the Virgo cluster of galaxies, focusing on its structure, kinematics, and morphological landscape. Our principal aim is to estimate the virial mass of the cluster. For this purpose, we present a sample of 1537…
