Visualization, Exploration and Data Analysis of Complex Astrophysical Data
Marco Comparato, Ugo Becciani, Alessandro Costa +4
In this paper we show how advanced visualization tools can help the researcher in investigating and extracting information from data. The focus is on VisIVO, a novel open source gr…
Two-Color Surface Photometry of Brightest Cluster Members
Bianca Garilli, Giorgio Sangalli, Stefano Andreon +3
The Gunn g, r and i CCD images of a representative sample of 17 Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCM) have been analyzed in order to derive surface brightness and color profiles, togeth…
Can dark energy viscosity be detected with the Euclid survey?
Domenico Sapone, Elisabetta Majerotto, Martin Kunz +1
Recent work has demonstrated that it is important to constrain the dynamics of cosmological perturbations, in addition to the evolution of the background, if we want to distinguish…
Protoclusters as Drivers of Stellar Mass Growth in the Early Universe, a Case Study: Taralay -- a Massive Protocluster at z ~ 4.57
Priti Staab, Brian C. Lemaux, Ben Forrest +26
Simulations predict that the galaxy populations inhabiting protoclusters may contribute considerably to the total amount of stellar mass growth of galaxies in the early universe. I…

Giuliano Taffoni, Ugo Becciani, Bianca Garilli +5
CHIPP (Computing HTC in INAF Pilot Project) is an Italian project funded by the Italian Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) and promoted by the ICT office of INAF. The main purpose o…
The VIMOS Mask Preparation Software
Dario Bottini, Bianca Garilli, Laurence Tresse
The main scientific characteristic of VIMOS (VIsible Multi Object Spectrograph, to be placed on ESO Very Large Telescope) is its high multiplexing capability, allowing astronomers…
