Empirical calibration of the near-IR Ca II triplet - III. Fitting functions

A. J. Cenarro, J. Gorgas, N. Cardiel +2

Using a near-IR stellar library of 706 stars with a wide coverage of atmospheric parameters, we study the behaviour of the Ca II triplet strength in terms of effective temperature,…

The dynamics of S0 galaxies and their Tully-Fisher relation

Anne Mathieu, Michael Merrifield, Konrad Kuijken

This paper investigates the detailed dynamical properties of a relatively homogeneous sample of disc-dominated S0 galaxies, with a view to understanding their formation, evolution…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The amplitudes of fluctuations in the 2dFGRS and the CMB, and implications for galaxy biasing

Ofer Lahav, Sarah L. Bridle, Will J. Percival +26

We compare the amplitudes of fluctuations probed by the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and by the latest measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies. By combining the…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The bias of galaxies and the density of the Universe

Licia Verde, Alan F. Heavens, Will J. Percival +27

We compute the bispectrum of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) and use it to measure the bias parameter of the galaxies. This parameter quantifies the strength of clustering…

The evolution of disk galaxies in clusters

A. Aragon-Salamanca, B. Milvang-Jensen, G. Hau +2

We are carrying out a programme to measure the evolution of the stellar and dynamical masses and M/L ratios for a sizeable sample of morphologically-classified disk galaxies in ric…

Measurements of the Composite Fermion masses from the spin polarization of 2-D electrons in the region

R. Chughtai, V. Zhitomirsky, R. J. Nicholas +1

Measurements of the reflectivity of a 2-D electron gas are used to deduce the polarization of the Composite Fermion hole system formed for Landau level occupancies in the regime 1<…
