Improved Photometric Calibration of the SNLS and the SDSS Supernova Surveys
M. Betoule, J. Marriner, N. Regnault +13
We present a combined photometric calibration of the SNLS and the SDSS supernova survey, which results from a joint effort of the SDSS and the SNLS collaborations. We deliver fluxe…
Distant galaxy clusters in the XMM Large Scale Structure survey
J. P. Willis, N. Clerc, M. N. Bremer +12
(Abridged) Distant galaxy clusters provide important tests of the growth of large scale structure in addition to highlighting the process of galaxy evolution in a consistently defi…
GOODS-Herschel: radio-excess signature of hidden AGN activity in distant star-forming galaxies
A. Del Moro, D. M. Alexander, J. R. Mullaney +23
We present here a new spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting approach that we adopt to select radio-excess sources amongst distant star-forming galaxies in the GOODS-Herschel (…
GOODS-Herschel: Impact of Active Galactic Nuclei and Star Formation Activity on Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions at High Redshift
Allison Kirkpatrick, Alexandra Pope, David M. Alexander +25
We explore the effects of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and star formation activity on the infrared (0.3-1000 microns) spectral energy distributions of luminous infrared galaxies fr…
Discovery of a giant HI tail in the galaxy group HCG 44
Paolo Serra, Baerbel Koribalski, Pierre-Alain Duc +25
We report the discovery of a giant HI tail in the intra-group medium of HCG 44 as part of the Atlas3D survey. The tail is ~300 kpc long in projection and contains ~5x10^8 M_sun of…
Evidence for a wide range of UV obscuration in z ~ 2 dusty galaxies from the GOODS-Herschel survey
Kyle Penner, Mark Dickinson, Alexandra Pope +20
Dusty galaxies at z ~ 2 span a wide range of relative brightness between rest-frame mid-infrared (8um) and ultraviolet wavelengths. We attempt to determine the physical mechanism r…
The GALEX Ultraviolet Virgo Cluster Survey (GUViCS). II. Constraints on star formation in ram-pressure stripped gas
S. Boissier, A. Boselli, P. -A. Duc +10
Context: Several galaxies in the Virgo cluster are known to have large HI gas tails related to a recent ram-pressure stripping event. The Virgo cluster has been extensively observe…
Searching for planetary-mass T-dwarfs in the core of Serpens
L. Spezzi, C. Alves de Oliveira, E. Moraux +5
We searched for isolated planetary-mass T-dwarfs in the 3Myr old Serpens Core cluster. We performed a deep imaging survey of the central part of this cluster using the WIRCam camer…
GOODS-Herschel: Ultra-deep XMM-Newton observations reveal AGN/star-formation connection
E. Rovilos, A. Comastri, R. Gilli +30
Models of galaxy evolution assume some connection between the AGN and star formation activity in galaxies. We use the multi-wavelength information of the CDFS to assess this issue.…
FMOS near-IR spectroscopy of Herschel selected galaxies: star formation rates, metallicity and dust attenuation at z~1
I. G. Roseboom, A. Bunker, M. Sumiyoshi +36
We investigate the properties (e.g. star formation rate, dust attentuation, stellar mass and metallicity) of a sample of infrared luminous galaxies at z \sim 1 via near-IR spectros…
The Red Supergiant Progenitor of Supernova 2012aw (PTF12bvh) in Messier 95
Schuyler D. Van Dyk, S. Bradley Cenko, Dovi Poznanski +9
We report on the direct detection and characterization of the probable red supergiant progenitor of the intermediate-luminosity Type II-Plateau (II-P) supernova (SN) 2012aw in the…
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): spectral classification through Principal Component Analysis
A. Marchetti, B. R. Granett, L. Guzzo +51
We develop a Principal Component Analysis aimed at classifying a sub-set of 27,350 spectra of galaxies in the range 0.4 < z < 1.0 collected by the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshi…
X-ray emission from star-forming galaxies - III. Calibration of the Lx-SFR relation up to redshift z1.3
S. Mineo, M. Gilfanov, B. D. Lehmer +2
We investigate the relation between total X-ray emission from star-forming galaxies and their star formation activity. Using nearby late-type galaxies and ULIRGs from Paper I and s…
The conceptual origins of gravitational lensing
David Valls-Gabaud
We critically examine the evidence available of the early ideas on the bending of light due to a gravitational attraction, which led to the concept of gravitational lenses, and att…
Stripped gas as fuel for newly formed HII regions in the encounter between VCC1249 and M49: a unified picture from NGVS and GUViCS
Fabrizio Arrigoni Battaia, Giuseppe Gavazzi, Michele Fumagalli +15
Context: We study the peculiar interacting galaxy system of VCC1249/M49 located in the core of the Virgo B subcluster. Owing to a recent interaction between the dwarf galaxy VCC124…
The SPLASH Survey: Kinematics of Andromeda's Inner Spheroid
Claire E. Dorman, Puragra Guhathakurta, Mark A. Fardal +12
The combination of large size, high stellar density, high metallicity, and Sersic surface brightness profile of the spheroidal component of the Andromeda galaxy (M31) within R_proj…
