    • Abundance ratios and IMF slopes in the dwarf elliptical galaxy NGC 1396 with MUSE 

      Mentz, J.J.; Loubser, S.I.; La Barbera, F.; Peletier, R.F.; Falcón-Barroso, J. (Oxford Univ Press, 2016)
      Deep observations of the dwarf elliptical (dE) galaxy NGC 1396 (MV = −16.60, Mass ∼4 × 108 M⊙), located in the Fornax cluster, have been performed with the Very Large Telescope/Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer spectrograph ...

    • Abundance ratios in dwarf elliptical galaxies 

      Sen, S.; Mentz, J.J.; Peletier, R.F.; Boselli, A.; Den Brok, M. (Oxford Univ Press, 2018)
      We determine abundance ratios of 37 dwarf ellipticals (dEs) in the nearby Virgo cluster. This sample is representative of the early-type population of galaxies in the absolute magnitude range −19.0 < Mr < −16.0. We analyse ...

    • Detecting metal-poor gas accretion in the star-forming dwarf galaxies UM 461 and Mrk 600 

      Lagos, P.; Scott, T.C.; Nigoche-Netro, A.; Demarco, R.; Humphrey, A. (Oxford Univ Press, 2018)
      Using VIsible MultiObject Spectrograph (VIMOS)-integral field unit (IFU) observations, we study the interstellar medium (ISM) of two star-forming dwarf galaxies, UM 461 and Mrk 600. Our aim was to search for the existence ...
