Assessing Colour-dependent Occupation Statistics Inferred from Galaxy Group Catalogues
Duncan Campbell, Frank C van den Bosch, Andrew Hearin +5
We investigate the ability of current implementations of galaxy group finders to recover colour-dependent halo occupation statistics. To test the fidelity of group catalogue inferr…
P-MaNGA: Full spectral fitting and stellar population maps from prototype observations
David M. Wilkinson, Claudia Maraston, Daniel Thomas +31
MaNGA (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory) is a 6-year SDSS-IV survey that will obtain resolved spectroscopy from 3600 to 10300 for a representative sample…
P-MaNGA: Gradients in Recent Star Formation Histories as Diagnostics for Galaxy Growth and Death
Cheng Li, Enci Wang, Lin Lin +31
We present an analysis of the data produced by the MaNGA prototype run (P-MaNGA), aiming to test how the radial gradients in recent star formation histories, as indicated by the 40…
The High-Mass Stellar Initial Mass Function in M31 Clusters
Daniel R. Weisz, L. Clifton Johnson, Daniel Foreman-Mackey +16
We have undertaken the largest systematic study of the high-mass stellar initial mass function (IMF) to date using the optical color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of 85 resolved, young…
Globular Cluster Streams as Galactic High-Precision Scales - The Poster Child Palomar 5
Andreas H. W. Küpper, Eduardo Balbinot, Ana Bonaca +4
Using the example of the tidal stream of the Milky Way globular cluster Palomar 5 (Pal 5), we demonstrate how observational data on streams can be efficiently reduced in dimensiona…
Probing the Physics of Narrow Line Regions in Active Galaxies III: Accretion and Cocoon Shocks in the LINER NGC1052
Michael A. Dopita, I-Ting Ho, Linda L. Dressell +16
We present Wide Field Spectrograph (WiFeS) integral field spectroscopy and HST FOS spectroscopy for the LINER galaxy NGC 1052. We infer the presence of a turbulent accretion flow f…
