Integral field spectroscopy of HII regions in M33

Jesús López-Hernández, Elena Terlevich, Roberto Terlevich +5

Integral field spectroscopy (IFS) is presented for star forming regions in M33. A central area of 300 x 500 pc^2 and the external HII region IC 132, at a galactocentric distance {\…

Effect of the interactions and environment on nuclear activity

J. Sabater, P. N. Best, M. Argudo-Fernández

We present a study of the prevalence of optical and radio nuclear activity with respect to the environment and interactions in a sample of SDSS galaxies. We defined a local density…

Helium in natal HII regions: the origin of the X-ray absorption in gamma-ray burst afterglows

Darach Watson, Tayyaba Zafar, Anja C. Andersen +8

Soft X-ray absorption in excess of Galactic is observed in the afterglows of most gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), but the correct solution to its origin has not been arrived at after more…

Piecing together the puzzle of NGC 5253: abundances, kinematics and WR stars

M. S. Westmoquette, B. James, A. Monreal-Ibero +1

We present Gemini-S/GMOS-IFU optical spectroscopy of four regions near the centre of the nearby (3.8 Mpc) dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 5253. This galaxy is famous for hosting a radio…
