Seven broad absorption line quasars with excess broad band absorption near 2250 Å
Shaohua Zhang, Jian Ge, Peng Jiang +6
We report the discovery of excess broad band absorption near 2250 A (EBBA) in the spectra of seven broad absorption line (BAL) quasars. By comparing with the statistical results fr…
Recent stellar mass assembly of low-mass star-forming galaxies at redshifts 0.3 < z < 0.9
Lucía Rodríguez-Muñoz, Jesús Gallego, Camilla Pacifici +5
The epoch when low-mass star forming galaxies (LMSFGs) form the bulk of their stellar mass is uncertain. While some models predict an early formation, others favor a delayed scenar…
The evolution of the cluster optical galaxy luminosity function between z=0.4 and 0.9 in the DAFT/FADA survey
Nicolas Martinet, Florence Durret, Loic Guennou +8
We compute optical galaxy luminosity functions (GLFs) in the B, V, R, and I rest-frame bands for one of the largest medium-to-high-redshift (0.4 < z < 0.9) cluster samples to date…
Structure of the nucleus of 1928+738
J. Roland, S. Britzen, E. Kun +3
Modeling of the trajectories of VLBI components ejected by the nucleus of 1928+738 shows the VLBI jet contains three families of trajectories, i.e. VLBI components are ejected from…
OH and H2O maser variations in W33B
P. Colom, E. E. Lekht, M. I. Pashchenko +1
The active star-forming region W33B is a source of OH and H2O maser emission located in distinct zones around the central object. The aim was to obtain the complete Stokes pattern…
Disk fragmentation and the formation of population III stars
M. A. Latif, D. R. G. Schleicher
Our understanding of population III star formation is still in its infancy. They are formed in dark matter minihalos of at . Recent high resoluti…
Herschel Survey of Galactic OH+, H2O+, and H3O+: Probing the Molecular Hydrogen Fraction and Cosmic-Ray Ionization Rate
Nick Indriolo, D. A. Neufeld, M. Gerin +19
In diffuse interstellar clouds the chemistry that leads to the formation of the oxygen bearing ions OH+, H2O+, and H3O+ begins with the ionization of atomic hydrogen by cosmic rays…
On the importance of using appropriate spectral models to derive physical properties of galaxies at 0.7<z<2.8
Camilla Pacifici, Elisabete da Cunha, Stéphane Charlot +14
Interpreting observations of distant galaxies in terms of constraints on physical parameters - such as stellar mass, star-formation rate (SFR) and dust optical depth - requires spe…
Exceptional AGN-driven turbulence inhibits star formation in the 3C 326N radio-galaxy
P. Guillard, F. Boulanger, M. D. Lehnert +4
We detect bright [CII]158m line emission from the radio galaxy 3C 326N at z=0.09, which shows weak star formation (M~yr) despite having strong H l…
Reconstructing the star formation history of the Milky Way disc(s) from chemical abundances
O. Snaith, M. Haywood, P. Di Matteo +4
We develop a chemical evolution model in order to study the star formation history of the Milky Way. Our model assumes that the Milky Way is formed from a closed box-like system in…
Why the Milky Way's bulge is not only a bar formed from a cold thin disk
P. Di Matteo, A. Gomez, M. Haywood +6
By analyzing a N-body simulation of a bulge formed simply via a bar instability mechanism operating on a kinematically cold stellar disk, and by comparing the results of this analy…
The formation of supermassive black holes in rapidly rotating disks
M. A. Latif, D. R. G. Schleicher
Massive primordial halos exposed to moderate UV backgrounds are the potential birthplaces of supermassive black holes. In such a halo, an initially isothermal collapse will occur,…
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…
Constraining the primordial initial mass function with stellar archaeology
Tilman Hartwig, Volker Bromm, Ralf S. Klessen +1
We present a new near-field cosmological probe of the initial mass function (IMF) of the first stars. Specifically, we constrain the lower-mass limit of the Population III (Pop III…
Collisional excitation of water by hydrogen atoms
F. Daniel, A. Faure, P. J. Dagdigian +3
We present quantum dynamical calculations that describe the rotational excitation of HO due to collisions with H atoms. We used a recent, high accuracy potential energy surface…
