MC: Subaru and Hubble Space Telescope Weak-Lensing Analysis of the Double Radio Relic Galaxy Cluster PLCK G287.0+32.9

Kyle Finner, M. James Jee, Nathan Golovich +6

The second most significant detection of the Planck Sunyaev Zel'dovich survey, PLCK~G287.0+32.9 () boasts two similarly bright radio relics and a radio halo. One radio rel…

The FluxCompensator: Making Radiative Transfer Models of hydrodynamical Simulations Directly Comparable to Real Observations

Christine M. Koepferl, Thomas P. Robitaille

When modeling astronomical objects throughout the universe, it is important to correctly treat the limitations of the data, for instance finite resolution and sensitivity. In order…

The effect of non-equilibrium metal cooling on the interstellar medium

Pedro R. Capelo, Stefano Bovino, Alessandro Lupi +2

By using a novel interface between the modern smoothed particle hydrodynamics code GASOLINE2 and the chemistry package KROME, we follow the hydrodynamical and chemical evolution of…

Inspiraling Halo Accretion Mapped in Lyman- Emission around a Quasar

Fabrizio Arrigoni Battaia, J. Xavier Prochaska, Joseph F. Hennawi +5

In an effort to search for Ly emission from circum- and intergalactic gas on scales of hundreds of kpc around quasars, and thus characterise the physical properties of…

The Chemical Evolution Carousel of Spiral Galaxies: Azimuthal Variations of Oxygen Abundance in NGC1365

I-Ting Ho, Mark Seibert, Sharon E. Meidt +9

The spatial distribution of oxygen in the interstellar medium of galaxies is the key to understanding how efficiently metals that are synthesized in massive stars can be redistribu…

Mass distribution in the core of MACS J1206: robust modeling from an exceptionally large sample of central multiple images

G. B. Caminha, C. Grillo, P. Rosati +24

We present a new strong lensing analysis of the galaxy cluster MACS J1206.2-0847 (MACS 1206), at z=0.44, using deep spectroscopy from CLASH-VLT and VLT/MUSE archival data in combin…

How do spiral arm contrasts relate to bars, disk breaks and other fundamental galaxy properties?

Adrian Bittner, Dimitri A. Gadotti, Bruce G. Elmegreen +4

We investigate how the properties of spiral arms relate to other fundamental galaxy properties, including bars and disc breaks. We use previously published measurements of those pr…

Quantitative spectroscopy of extreme helium stars - Model atmospheres and a non-LTE abundance analysis of BD+102179?

Thomas Kupfer, Norbert Przybilla, Ulrich Heber +3

Extreme helium stars (EHe stars) are hydrogen-deficient supergiants of spectral type A and B. They are believed to result from mergers in double degenerate systems. In this paper w…

The Radial Distribution of Mono-Metallicity Populations in the Galactic Disk as Evidence for Two-Phase Disk Formation

R. Domínguez-Tenreiro, A. Obreja, C. B. Brook +2

Recent determinations of the radial distributions of mono-metallicity populations (MMPs, i.e., stars in narrow bins in [Fe/H] within wider [/Fe] ranges) by the SDSS-III/APOGEE D…

Mass-size scaling M~ r^1.67 of massive star-forming clumps -- evidences of turbulence-regulated gravitational collapse

Chuan-Peng Zhang, Guang-Xing Li

We study the fragmentation of eight massive clumps using data from ATLASGAL 870 m, SCUBA 850 and 450 m, PdBI 1.3 and 3.5 mm, and probe the fragmentation from 1 pc to 0.01 pc…

Gravitational Focusing and the Star Cluster Initial Mass Function

Aleksandra Kuznetsova, Lee Hartmann, Andreas Burkert

We discuss the possibility that gravitational focusing, is responsible for the power-law mass function of star clusters . This power law can be produced a…
