Bulges and disks in the Host Galaxies of low redshift 3CR Sources: a near-IR view of their radial brightness profile

Carlos J. Donzelli, Marco Chiaberge, F. Duccio Macchetto +3

We analyze the near-infrared luminosity profiles and photometric parameters of the host galaxies of 3CR radio sources with z<0.3, to investigate their physical nature. Our sample i…

Multi-frequency monitoring of gamma-ray loud blazars: I. Light curves and spectral energy distributions

U. Bach, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +23

Context: Being dominated by non-thermal emission from aligned relativistic jets, blazars allow us to elucidate the physics of extragalactic jets, and, ltimately, how the energy is…

Diffuse stellar component in galaxy clusters and the evolution of the most massive galaxies at z<~1

Pierluigi Monaco, Giuseppe Murante, Stefano Borgani +1

The high end of the stellar mass function of galaxies is observed to have little evolution since z~1. This represents a stringent constraint for merger--based models, aimed at expl…

Measuring supermassive black holes with gas kinematics: the active S0 galaxy NGC 3998

Giovanna De Francesco, Alessandro Capetti, Alessandro Marconi

We present results from a kinematical study of the gas in the nucleus of the active S0 galaxy NGC 3998 obtained from archival HST/STIS long-slit spectra. We analyzed the emission l…

TrES-2: The First Transiting Planet in the Kepler Field

Francis T. O'Donovan, David Charbonneau, Georgi Mandushev +17

We announce the discovery of the second transiting hot Jupiter discovered by the Trans-atlantic Exoplanet Survey. The planet, which we dub TrES-2, orbits the nearby star GSC 03549-…

Properties of the galaxy population in hydrodynamical simulations of clusters

A. Saro, S. Borgani, L. Tornatore +5

We present a study of the galaxy population predicted by hydrodynamical simulations for a set of 19 galaxy clusters based on the GADGET-2 Tree+SPH code. These simulations include g…
