The evolution of the Galactic metallicity gradient from high-resolution spectroscopy of open clusters

Laura Magrini, Paola Sestito, Sofia Randich +1

Open clusters offer a unique possibility to study the time evolution of the radial metallicity gradients of several elements in our Galaxy, because they span large intervals in age…

The XMM-Newton long look of NGC 1365: uncovering of the obscured X-ray source

G. Risaliti, M. Salvati, M. Elvis +10

We present an analysis of the extreme obscuration variability observed during an XMM-Newton 5-days continuous monitoring of the AGN in NGC 1365. The source was in a reflection-domi…

Circumstellar disks around Herbig Be stars

T. Alonso-Albi, A. Fuente, R. Bachiller +5

We completed a search for circumstellar disks around Herbig Be stars using the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA) and the IRAM Plateau de Bure (PdB) interferometers. We present our new VL…

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…

The environments of starburst and post-starburst galaxies at z=0.4-0.8

Bianca M. Poggianti, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca, Dennis Zaritsky +16

Post-starburst (E+A or k+a) spectra, characterized by their exceptionally strong Balmer lines in absorption and the lack of emission lines, belong to galaxies in which the star for…

Gamma ray emission and stochastic particle acceleration in galaxy clusters

G. Brunetti, P. Blasi, R. Cassano +1

FERMI (formely GLAST) will shortly provide crucial information on relativistic particles in galaxy clusters. We discuss non-thermal emission in the context of general calculations…
