Photometric Redshifts and Model Spectral Energy Distributions of Galaxies From the SDSS-III BOSS DR10 Data

N. Greisel, S. Seitz, N. Drory +3

We construct a set of model spectra specifically designed to match the colours of the BOSS CMASS galaxies and to be used with photometric redshift template fitting techniques. As a…

Red Supergiants as Cosmic Abundance Probes: The Sculptor Galaxy NGC 300

J. Zachary Gazak, Rolf Kudritzki, Chris Evans +9

We present a quantitative spectroscopic study of twenty-seven red supergiants in the Sculptor Galaxy NGC 300. J-band spectra were obtained using KMOS on the VLT and studied with st…

Red Supergiants as Cosmic Abundance Probes: The Magellanic Clouds

Ben Davies, Rolf-Peter Kudritzki, Zach Gazak +4

Red Supergiants (RSGs) are cool (~4000K), highly luminous stars (L - 10^5 Lsun), and are among the brightest near-infrared (NIR) sources in star-forming galaxies. This makes them p…

The chemical evolution of local star forming galaxies: Radial profiles of ISM metallicity, gas mass, and stellar mass and constraints on galactic accretion and winds

Rolf-Peter Kudritzki, I-Ting Ho, Andreas Schruba +4

The radially averaged metallicity distribution of the ISM and the young stellar population of a sample of 20 disk galaxies is investigated by means of an analytical chemical evolut…

DES13S2cmm: The First Superluminous Supernova from the Dark Energy Survey

A. Papadopoulos, C. B. D'Andrea, M. Sullivan +66

We present DES13S2cmm, the first spectroscopically-confirmed superluminous supernova (SLSN) from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We briefly discuss the data and search algorithm used…

Red Supergiant Stars as Cosmic Abundance Probes: KMOS Observations in NGC 6822

L. R. Patrick, C. J. Evans, B. Davies +5

We present near-IR spectroscopy of red supergiant (RSG) stars in NGC 6822, obtained with the new VLT-KMOS instrument. From comparisons with model spectra in the J-band we determine…

Metallicity gradients in local field star-forming galaxies: Insights on inflows, outflows, and the coevolution of gas, stars and metals

I-Ting Ho, Rolf-Peter Kudritzki, Lisa J. Kewley +4

We present metallicity gradients in 49 local field star-forming galaxies. We derive gas-phase oxygen abundances using two widely adopted metallicity calibrations based on the [OIII…

Cosmic variance of the galaxy cluster weak lensing signal

D. Gruen, S. Seitz, M. R. Becker +2

Intrinsic variations of the projected density profiles of clusters of galaxies at fixed mass are a source of uncertainty for cluster weak lensing. We present a semi-analytical mode…

Characterization and correction of charge-induced pixel shifts in DECam

Daniel Gruen, Gary M. Bernstein, Mike Jarvis +4

Interaction of charges in CCDs with the already accumulated charge distribution causes both a flux dependence of the point-spread function (an increase of observed size with flux,…
