    Stellar Populations of Globular Clusters in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 1407
    We present high-quality Keck spectroscopic data for a sample of 20 globular clusters (GCs) in the massive E0 galaxy NGC 1407. A subset of 20 line-strength...

    Stellar populations of massive elliptical galaxies in very rich clusters
    We present a detailed stellar population analysis of 27 massive elliptical galaxies within four very rich clusters at redshift z ~ 0.2: A115, A655, A963 and...

    Stellar splashback: the edge of the intracluster light
    We examine the outskirts of galaxy clusters in the C-EAGLE simulations to quantify the 'edges' of the stellar and dark matter distribution. The radius of the...

    Stellar Tidal Streams in Spiral Galaxies of the Local Volume: A Pilot Survey with Modest Aperture Telescopes
    Within the hierarchical framework for galaxy formation, minor merging and tidal interactions are expected to shape all large galaxies to the present day. As a...

    Stellar velocity profiles and line strengths out to four effective radii in the early-type galaxies NGC3379 and 821
    We use the integral-field spectrograph SAURON to measure the stellar line-of-sight velocity distribution and absorption line strengths out to four effective...
