Star formation around the mid-infrared bubble CN 148

L. K. Dewangan, D. K. Ojha, J. M. C. Grave +1

We present a multi-wavelength study to analyse the star formation process associated with the mid-infrared bubble CN 148 (H II region G10.3-0.1), which harbors an O5V-O6V star. The…

How much dark matter is there inside early-type galaxies?

A. Nigoche-Netro, A. Ruelas-Mayorga, P. Lagos +5

We study the luminous mass as a function of the dynamical mass inside the effective radius (r_e) of early-type galaxies (ETGs) to search for differences between these masses. We as…

CALIFA, the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. III. Second public data release

R. García-Benito, S. Zibetti, S. F. Sánchez +68

This paper describes the Second Public Data Release (DR2) of the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area (CALIFA) survey. The data for 200 objects are made public, including the 100…

Nearby supernova host galaxies from the CALIFA Survey: I. Sample, data analysis, and correlation to star-forming regions

L. Galbany, V. Stanishev, A. M. Mourão +25

[Abridged] We use optical IFS of nearby SN host galaxies provided by the CALIFA Survey with the goal of finding correlations in the environmental parameters at the location of diff…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: the chemical structure of the Galactic discs from the first internal data release

Š. Mikolaitis, V. Hill, A. Recio-Blanco +31

Most high-resolution spectroscopic studies of the Galactic discs were mostly confined to objects in the solar vicinity. Here we aim at enlarging the volume in which individual chem…

Spectroscopy of 7 Radio-Loud QSOs at 2<z<6: Giant Lyman-alpha Nebulae Accreting onto Host Galaxies

Nathan Roche, Andrew Humphrey, Luc Binette

We performed long-slit optical spectroscopy (GTC-OSIRIS) of 6 radio-loud QSOs at redshifts , known to have giant (-100 kpc) Lyman- emitting nebulae, and detect e…

Supernovae and their host galaxies - II. The relative frequencies of supernovae types in spirals

A. A. Hakobyan, T. A. Nazaryan, V. Zh. Adibekyan +8

We present an analysis of the relative frequencies of different supernova (SN) types in spirals with various morphologies and in barred or unbarred galaxies. We use a well-defined…

A Multiple Dry Merger at z=0.18: Witnessing The Assembly of a Massive Elliptical Galaxy

M. E. Filho, P. Brochado, J. Brinchmann +4

Mergers of gas-poor galaxies, so-called dry mergers, may play a fundamental role in the assembly of the most massive galaxies, and therefore, in galaxy formation theories. Using th…

Extreme CII emission in type 2 quasars at z~2.5: a signature of kappa-distributed electron energies?

Andrew Humphrey, Luc Binette

We investigate the flux ratio between the 1335 A and 2326 A lines of singly ionized carbon in the extended narrow line regions of type 2 quasars at z~2.5. We find the observed CII…

Searching for solar siblings among the HARPS data

S. F. A. Batista, V. Zh. Adibekyan, S. G. Sousa +3

The search for the solar siblings has been particularly fruitful in the last few years. Until now, there are four plausible candidates pointed out in the literature: HIP21158, HIP8…

Bulgeless Galaxies at Intermediate Redshift: Sample Selection, Colour Properties, and the Existence of Powerful AGN

Luca Bizzocchi, Mercedes E. Filho, Elvira Leonardo +11

We present a catalogue of bulgeless galaxies, which includes 19225 objects selected in four of the deepest, largest multi-wavelength datasets available -- COSMOS, AEGIS, GEMS and G…

Extreme Infrared Variables from UKIDSS - I. A Concentration in Star Forming Regions

C. Contreras Peña, P. W. Lucas, D. Froebrich +7

We present initial results of the first panoramic search for high-amplitude near-infrared variability in the Galactic Plane. We analyse the widely separated two-epoch K-band photom…
