Centaurus Compact Object Survey

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Our aim is to extend the investigations of ultra-compact dwarf galaxies (UCD) beyond the well studied Fornax and Virgo clusters.

Description

We measured spectroscopic redshifts of about 400 compact object candidates with 19.2<V<22.4mag in the central region of the Centaurus galaxy cluster (d=43Mpc), using 3 pointings with VIMOS@VLT. The luminosity range of the candidates covers the bright end of the globular cluster (GC) luminosity function and the luminosity regime of UCDs in Fornax and Virgo.

Within the area surveyed, our completeness in terms of slit allocation is ~30%.
