Modelling galaxy spectra in presence of interstellar dust-III. From nearby galaxies to the distant Universe
Letizia P. Cassarà, Lorenzo Piovan, Cesare Chiosi
Improving upon the standard evolutionary population synthesis (EPS) technique, we present spectrophotometric models of galaxies whose morphology goes from spherical structures to d…
The nature of obscuration in AGN: II. insights from clustering properties
Li Shao, Cheng Li, Guinevere Kauffmann +1
Based on large optical and mid-infrared (IR) surveys, we investigate the relation between nuclear activity in local Seyfert 2 galaxies and galaxy interactions using a statistical n…
The SILCC (SImulating the LifeCycle of molecular Clouds) project: I. Chemical evolution of the supernova-driven ISM
S. K. Walch, P. Girichidis, T. Naab +7
The SILCC project (SImulating the Life-Cycle of molecular Clouds) aims at a more self-consistent understanding of the interstellar medium (ISM) on small scales and its link to gala…
Local Group galaxies emerge from the dark
Till Sawala, Carlos S. Frenk, Azadeh Fattahi +13
The "Lambda Cold Dark Matter" (LCDM) model of cosmic structure formation is eminently falsifiable: once its parameters are fixed on large scales, it becomes testable in the nearby…
Overview of the SDSS-IV MaNGA Survey: Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory
Kevin Bundy, Matthew A. Bershady, David R. Law +65
We present an overview of a new integral field spectroscopic survey called MaNGA (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory), one of three core programs in the fourth-gen…
The variation in molecular gas depletion time among nearby galaxies: II the impact of galaxy internal structures
Mei-Ling Huang, Guinevere Kauffmann
We use a data set of nearby galaxies drawn from the HERACLES, ATLAS3D, and COLD GASS surveys to study variations in molecular gas depletion time (Tdep) in galaxy structures such as…
The dynamical evolution of molecular clouds near the Galactic Centre - I. Orbital structure and evolutionary timeline
J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, James E. Dale, Steven N. Longmore
We recently proposed that the star-forming potential of dense molecular clouds in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ, i.e. the central few 100 pc) of the Milky Way is linked to their…
The suppression of direct collapse black hole formation by soft X-ray irradiation
Kohei Inayoshi, Takamitsu L. Tanaka
The origin of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in galactic nuclei is one of the major unsolved problems in astrophysics. One hypothesis is that they grew from >10^5 M_sun black hol…
Planck intermediate results. XXXIII. Signature of the magnetic field geometry of interstellar filaments in dust polarization maps
Planck Collaboration, P. A. R. Ade, N. Aghanim +187
Planck observations at 353GHz provide the first fully-sampled maps of the polarized dust emission towards interstellar filaments and their backgrounds. The polarization data provid…
Modelling the supernova-driven ISM in different environments
A. Gatto, S. Walch, M. -M. Mac Low +11
We use hydrodynamical simulations in a periodic box to model the impact of supernova (SN) explosions on the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM) for initial de…
Star formation quenching in simulated group and cluster galaxies: When, how, and why?
Yannick M. Bahe, Ian G. McCarthy
Star formation is observed to be suppressed in group and cluster galaxies compared to the field. To gain insight into the quenching process, we have analysed ~2000 galaxies formed…
A comprehensive X-ray and multiwavelength study of the Colliding Galaxy Pair NGC2207/IC2163
S. Mineo, S. Rappaport, A. Levine +3
We present a comprehensive study of the total X-ray emission from the colliding galaxy pair NGC2207/IC2163, based on Chandra, Spitzer, and GALEX data. We detect 28 ultra-luminous X…
The Atlas3D project -- XXIX. The new look of early-type galaxies and surrounding fields disclosed by extremely deep optical images
Pierre-Alain Duc, Jean-Charles Cuillandre, Emin Karabal +24
Galactic archeology based on star counts is instrumental to reconstruct the past mass assembly of Local Group galaxies. The development of new observing techniques and data-reducti…
The white dwarf cooling sequence of 47 Tucanae
Enrique García-Berro, Santiago Torres, Leandro G. Althaus +1
47 Tucanae is one of the most interesting and well observed and theoretically studied globular clusters. This allows us to study the reliability of our understanding of white dwarf…
The stellar accretion origin of stellar population gradients in massive galaxies at large radii
Michaela Hirschmann, Thorsten Naab, Jeremiah P. Ostriker +5
We investigate the evolution of stellar population gradients from to in massive galaxies at large radii () using ten cosmological zoom simulation…
Galaxy formation in the Planck Cosmology - I. Matching the observed evolution of star formation rates, colours and stellar masses
Bruno Henriques, Simon White, Peter Thomas +5
We have updated the Munich galaxy formation model to the Planck first-year cosmology, while modifying the treatment of baryonic processes to reproduce recent data on the abundance…
The energy and momentum input of supernova explosions in structured and ionised molecular clouds
S. K. Walch, T. Naab
We investigate the early impact of single and binary supernova (SN) explosions on dense gas clouds with three-dimensional, high-resolution, hydrodynamic simulations. The effect of…
