Origin of CH+ in diffuse molecular clouds warm H2 and ion-neutral drift

Valeska Valdivia, Benjamin Godard, Patrick Hennebelle +3

This paper assesses the roles of the presence of warm H2, and the increased formation rate due to the ion-neutral drift. We performed ideal MHD simulations that include the heating…

Measuring Diffuse Interstellar Bands with cool stars. An improved line list to model the background stellar spectra

A. Monreal-Ibero, R. Lallement

DIBs are ubiquitous in stellar spectra. Traditionally, they have been studied through their extraction from hot stars, because of their smooth continuum. In an era where there are…

The ALHAMBRA survey : band luminosity function of quiescent and star-forming galaxies at by PDF analysis

C. López-Sanjuan, E. Tempel, N. Benítez +34

Our goal is to study the evolution of the band luminosity function (LF) since using ALHAMBRA data. We used the photometric redshift and the band selection magnitude p…

On the kinematic detection of accreted streams in the Gaia era: a cautionary tale

I. Jean-Baptiste, P. Di Matteo, M. Haywood +4

The CDM cosmological scenario predicts that our Galaxy should contain hundreds of stellar streams at the solar vicinity, fossil relics of the merging history of the Milky Way an…

High-redshift major mergers weakly enhance star formation

J. Fensch, F. Renaud, F. Bournaud +11

Galaxy mergers are believed to trigger strong starbursts. This is well assessed by observations in the local Universe. However the efficiency of this mechanism has poorly been test…

Understanding active galactic nuclei using near-infrared high angular resolution polarimetry I : MontAGN - stokes comparison

Lucas Grosset, Frédéric Marin, Damien Gratadour +5

In this first research note of a series of two, we present a comparison between two Monte Carlo radiative transfer codes: MontAGN and STOKES. Both were developed in order to better…
