Decoding the stellar fossils of the dusty Milky Way progenitors

Matteo de Bennassuti, Raffaella Schneider, Rosa Valiante +1

We investigate the metallicity distribution function (MDF) in the Galactic halo and the relative fraction of Carbon-normal and Carbon-rich stars. To this aim, we use an improved ve…

High-redshift quasars host galaxies: is there a stellar mass crisis?

Rosa Valiante, Raffaella Schneider, Stefania Salvadori +1

We investigate the evolutionary properties of a sample of quasars at 5<z<6.4 using the semi-analytical hierarchical model GAMETE/QSOdust. We find that the observed properties of th…

Pseudo Three-dimensional Maps of the Diffuse Interstellar Band at 862 nm

Janez Kos, Tomaž Zwitter, Rosemary Wyse +20

The diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) are absorption lines observed in visual and near infrared spectra of stars. Understanding their origin in the interstellar medium (ISM) is one…

Shell galaxies as laboratories for testing MOND

Michal Bílek, Ivana Ebrová, Bruno Jungwiert +2

Tests of MOND in ellipticals are relatively rare because these galaxies often lack kinematic tracers in the regions where the MOND effects are significant. Stellar shells observed…

The Number Density of Quiescent Compact Galaxies at Intermediate Redshift

Ivana Damjanov, Ho Seong Hwang, Margaret J. Geller +1

Massive compact systems at 0.2<z<0.6 are the missing link between the predominantly compact population of massive quiescent galaxies at high redshift and their analogs and relics i…

Abundant molecular gas and inefficient star formation in intracluster regions: Ram pressure stripped tail of the Norma galaxy ESO137-001

Pavel Jachym, Francoise Combes, Luca Cortese +2

For the first time, we reveal large amounts of cold molecular gas in a ram pressure stripped tail, out to a large, intracluster distance from the galaxy. With the APEX telescope we…
