Physical properties of galaxies and their evolution in the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey. I. The evolution of the mass-metallicity relation up to z~0.9

F. Lamareille, J. Brinchmann, T. Contini +43

We derive the mass-metallicity relation of star-forming galaxies up to , using data from the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey. Automatic measurement of emission-line fluxes and equi…

Mass loss from hot massive stars

J. Puls, J. S. Vink, F. Najarro

Mass loss is a key process in the evolution of massive stars, and must be understood quantitatively to be successfully included in broader astrophysical applications. In this revie…

HVS7: a chemically peculiar hyper-velocity star

N. Przybilla, M. F. Nieva, A. Tillich +3

Context: Hyper-velocity stars are suggested to originate from the dynamical interaction of binary stars with the supermassive black hole in the Galactic centre (GC), which accelera…

The supermassive black hole of Fornax A

N. Nowak, R. P. Saglia, J. Thomas +3

The radio galaxy Fornax A (NGC 1316) is a prominent merger remnant in the outskirts of the Fornax cluster. Its giant radio lobes suggest the presence of a powerful AGN and thus a c…

LMC origin of the hyper-velocity star HE 0437-5439. Beyond the supermassive black hole paradigm

N. Przybilla, M. F. Nieva, U. Heber +4

Context: Hyper-velocity stars move so fast that only a supermassive black hole (SMBH) seems to be capable to accelerate them. Hence the Galactic centre (GC) is their only suggested…
