Ultradiffuse Galaxies—A Distinct Population? Dwarf Galaxies in the Coma Cluster and A262 from Deep u′–g′–r′ Wendelstein Imaging Data

In this study, we compare the structural parameters of ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs) to those of other dwarf galaxies and investigate whether UDGs form a distinct population. We observed deep $u^{\prime} $ -, $g^{\prime} $ -, and $r^{\prime} $ -band images (maximum limiting surface brightness [3 σ ,...
