"A Survey of Dwarfs and Tidal Debris around Nearby Massive Galaxies\r\n–\r\nDeep Imaging with Medium-Sized Telescopes"^^ . "The goal of this thesis was to search for interaction signatures among massive galaxies and to quantify\r\nthe properties of their satellites. We performed deep wide-field imaging on nearby massive spiral\r\ngalaxies in a distance range of 8 to 35 Mpc. The spirals cover a variety of morphologies and are located\r\nin environments of different densities and richness. We studied the surroundings of 47 massive galaxies.\r\n29 targets were studied in detail. For all of them, we were able to detect dwarf companions. In total we\r\nfound 55 mostly new candidate dwarf galaxies (CDG), on average about two CDGs per target. Based\r\non their structural parameters and colors, we classified the majority of the CDGs as dwarf spheroidal\r\ngalaxies, but also dwarf elliptical and dwarf irregular galaxies are included in the sample. The satellites’\r\nobserved surface brightness in the B-band falls in the range 22 < μ_B < 26 mag arcsec^−2, the colors\r\nvary from 0.8 < (B − R)_0 < 1.5 mag, and the measured range of luminosities is −8 < M_B,0 < −17.\r\nThe number of CDGs observed is quantitatively in agreement with the expected number compared to\r\nthe Milky Way or M31 within our sensitivity limits. Furthermore, about 54% of our host galaxies show\r\nsigns of tidal interactions. These range from prominent tidal tails, plumes and clouds to thin and faint\r\nstellar streams. 35% of the massive galaxies exhibit signs of tidal tails or bridges, 11% show plumes or\r\nclouds, and only 8% show stellar streams. We discuss possible progenitors of these features based on\r\ntheir colors."^^ . "2014" . . . . . . . "Johannes"^^ . "Ludwig"^^ . "Johannes Ludwig"^^ . . . . . .
