A giant bar induced by a merger event at z=0.4?

Sébastien Peirani, Francois Hammer, Hector Flores +2

(Aims) We present a physical model of the formation of J033239.72-275154.7, a galaxy observed at z=0.41 and characterized by a big young bar of size 6 kpc. The study of this system…

On the nature of faint Low Surface Brightness galaxies in the Coma cluster

C. Adami, R. Pello, M. P. Ulmer +5

This project is the continuation of our study of faint Low Surface Brightness Galaxies (fLSBs) in one of the densest nearby galaxy regions known, the Coma cluster. Our goal is to i…

Testing gravity on large scales. The skewness of the galaxy distribution at z~1

C. Marinoni, L. Guzzo, A. Cappi +54

We study the evolution of the low-order moments of the galaxy overdensity distribution over the redshift interval 0.7<z<1.5. We find that the variance and the normalized skewness e…

Magnetic activity in the photosphere of CoRoT-Exo-2a. Active longitudes and short-term spot cycle in a young Sun-like star

A. F. Lanza, I. Pagano, G. Leto +18

The space experiment CoRoT has recently detected transits by a hot Jupiter across the disc of an active G7V star (CoRoT-Exo-2a) that can be considered as a good proxy for the Sun a…

Stellar activity of planetary host star HD 189733

I. Boisse, C. Moutou, A. Vidal-Madjar +20

Extra-solar planet search programs require high-precision velocity measurements. They need to study how to disentangle radial-velocity variations due to Doppler motion from the noi…

The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets XVII. Six long-period giant planets around BD -17 0063, HD 20868, HD 73267, HD 131664, HD 145377, HD 153950

C. Moutou, M. Mayor, G. Lo Curto +8

We report the discovery of six new substellar companions of main-sequence stars, detected through multiple Doppler measurements with the instrument HARPS installed on the ESO 3.6m…
