We present a homogeneous and high signal-to-noise data set (mean S/N of ~60 per \AA) of Lick/IDS stellar population line indices and central velocity dispersions for a sample of 132 bright (b_j < 18.0) galaxies within the central 1 deg (=…

In this paper, we present a new method to select the faint, background galaxies used to derive the mass of galaxy clusters by weak lensing. The method is based on the simultaneous analysis of the shear signal, that should be consistent with…

Observations of radio halos and relics in galaxy clusters indicate efficient electron acceleration. Protons should likewise be accelerated, suggesting that clusters may also be sources of very high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) gamma-ray…

We present a catalogue of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the Coma cluster obtained from deep Subaru/Suprime-Cam V and R-band imaging data within a region of $\sim$4 deg$^2$. We increase the number of LSB galaxies presented in Yagi…

A search of more than 3,000 square degrees of high latitude sky by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey has yielded 251 faint high-latitude carbon stars (FHLCs), the large majority previously uncataloged. We present homogeneous spectroscopy,…

Mean ages and metal abundances are estimated for the stellar populations in a sample of 115 E and S0 galaxies in the central 64'x70' of the Coma cluster. The estimates are based on the line indices Mg2, <Fe> and Hbeta, and the mass-to-light…

A low-latitude anticenter field (l=189, b=+21) is investigated by using the full calibration tools of RGU photometry. The observed RGU data are reduced to the standard system and the separation of dwarfs and evolved stars is carried out by…

The Fornax Deep Survey Dwarf galaxy Catalog (FDSDC) includes 564 dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster and the in-falling Fornax A subgroup. We use the FDSDC galaxies for statistical analysis of the structural and stellar population…

In this paper we analyze the structural parameters of the dwarf galaxies in the Coma cluster with $-18 \le M_{B} \le -16$ and classify them in two types: those with surface brightness profiles well fitted by a single Sersic law were called…

We have undertaken a search for the infrared emission from the intracluster dust in the Coma cluster of galaxies by the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer. Our observations yield the deepest mid and far-infrared images of a galaxy…
