Massive Star Populations in Wolf-Rayet Galaxies
I. F. Fernandes, R. de Carvalho, T. Contini +1
We analyze longslit spectral observations of fourteen Wolf-Rayet galaxies from the sample of Schaerer, Contini & Pindao (1999). All 14 galaxies show broad Wolf-Rayet emission in th…
Environmental effects in the interaction and merging of galaxies in zCOSMOS
P. Kampczyk, S. J. Lilly, L. de Ravel +56
(Abridged) We analyze the environments and galactic properties (morphologies and star-formation histories) of a sample of 153 close kinematic pairs in the redshift range 0.2 < z <…
Mass and environment as drivers of galaxy evolution in SDSS and zCOSMOS and the origin of the Schechter function
Y. Peng, S. J. Lilly, K. Kovac +61
We explore the inter-relationships between mass, star-formation rate and environment in the SDSS, zCOSMOS and other surveys. The differential effects of mass and environment are co…
The zCOSMOS survey: the role of the environment in the evolution of the luminosity function of different galaxy types
E. Zucca, S. Bardelli, M. Bolzonella +64
(Abridged) We studied the evolution in the B band luminosity function to z~1 in the zCOSMOS 10k sample, for which both accurate galaxy classifications and a detailed description of…
Tracing the cosmic growth of super massive black holes to z ~ 3 with Herschel
I. Delvecchio, C. Gruppioni, F. Pozzi +23
We study a sample of Herschel-PACS selected galaxies within the GOODS-South and the COSMOS fields in the framework of the PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP) project. Starting from the r…
Starbursts in barred spiral galaxies. V. Morphological analysis of bars
S. Chapelon, T. Contini, E. Davoust
We have measured the bar lengths and widths of 125 barred galaxies observed with CCDs. The dependence of bar strength (identified with bar axis ratio) on morphological type, nuclea…
