UCD and bright GC in Fornax

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

All the previously cataloged ultracompact dwarf (UCD) galaxies in the Fornax and Virgo clusters have 17.5<b_J_<20.

Description

Using the 2dF spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope, we have carried out a search for fainter UCDs in the Fornax Cluster. In the magnitude interval 19.5<b_J_<21.5, we have found 54 additional compact cluster members within a projected radius of 0.9{deg} (320kpc) of the cluster center, all of which meet our selection and observational criteria to be UCDs.
