Morphology and enhanced star formation in a Cartwheel-like ring galaxy
F. Renaud, E. Athanassoula, P. Amram +8
We use hydrodynamical simulations of a Cartwheel-like ring galaxy, modelled as a nearly head-on collision of a small companion with a larger disc galaxy, to probe the evolution of…
Evolution of the mass, size, and star formation rate in high-redshift merging galaxies MIRAGE - A new sample of simulations with detailed stellar feedback
V. Perret, F. Renaud, B. Epinat +5
We aim at addressing the questions related to galaxy mass assembly through major and minor wet merging processes in the redshift range 1<z<2. A consequent fraction of Milky Way lik…
The intriguing life of star-forming galaxies in the redshift range 1 < z < 2 using MASSIV
P. Amram, C. Lopez-Sanjuan, B. Epinat +13
MASSIV (Massiv Assembly Survey with SINFONI in VVDS) is an ESO large program which consists of 84 star-forming galaxies, spanning in a wide range of stellar masses, observed with t…
MASSIV: Mass Assembly Survey with SINFONI in VVDS. VI. Metallicity-related fundamental relations in star-forming galaxies at
C. Divoy, T. Contini, E. Pérez-Montero +13
The MASSIV (Mass Assembly Survey with SINFONI in VVDS) project aims at finding constraints on the different processes involved in galaxy evolution. This study proposes to improve t…
GHASP: an H kinematic survey of spiral galaxies - X. Surface photometry, decompositions and the Tully-Fisher relation in the Rc-band
C. E. Barbosa, C. Mendes de Oliveira, P. Amram +6
We present Rc-band surface photometry for 170 of the 203 galaxies in GHASP, Gassendi H-Alpha survey of SPirals, a sample of late-type galaxies for which high-resolution Fabry-Perot…
MASSIV: Mass Assembly Survey with SINFONI in VVDS - II. Kinematics and close environment classification
B. Epinat, L. Tasca, P. Amram +12
(Abridged) Processes driving mass assembly are expected to evolve on different timescales along cosmic time. A transition might happen around z ~ 1 as the cosmic star formation rat…
