The Gaia-ESO Survey: N-body modelling of the Gamma Velorum cluster

M. Mapelli, A. Vallenari, R. D. Jeffries +22

The Gaia-ESO Survey has recently unveiled the complex kinematic signature of the Gamma Velorum cluster: this cluster is composed of two kinematically distinct populations (hereafte…

WISE colours and star-formation in the host galaxies of radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1

A. Caccianiga, S. Anton, L. Ballo +7

We investigate the mid-infrared properties of the largest (42 objects) sample of radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (RL NLS1) collected to date, using data from the Wide-field Infrar…

The GALEX Ultraviolet Virgo Cluster Survey (GUViCS). V. Ultraviolet diffuse emission and cirrus properties in the Virgo cluster direction

S. Boissier, A. Boselli, E. Voyer +9

CONTEXT: The Virgo direction has been observed at many wavelengths in the recent years, in particular in the ultraviolet with GALEX. The far ultraviolet (FUV) diffuse light detecte…

Evidence for Mature Bulges and an Inside-out Quenching Phase 3 Billion Years After the Big Bang

S. Tacchella, C. M. Carollo, A. Renzini +14

Most present-day galaxies with stellar masses solar masses show no ongoing star formation and are dense spheroids. Ten billion years ago, similarly massive galaxies w…

The environment of the strongest galactic methanol maser

A. Sanna, K. M. Menten, C. Carrasco-González +6

The high-mass star-forming site G009.62+00.20E hosts the 6.7 GHz methanol maser source with the greatest flux density in the Galaxy which has been flaring periodically over the las…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: a quiescent Milky Way with no significant dark/stellar accreted disc

G. R. Ruchti, J. I. Read, S. Feltzing +26

According to our current cosmological model, galaxies like the Milky Way are expected to experience many mergers over their lifetimes. The most massive of the merging galaxies will…
