Red galaxies with pseudo-bulges in the SDSS: closer to disk galaxies or to classical bulges?

B. Ribeiro, C. Lobo, S. Antón +2

Pseudo-bulges are expected to markedly differ from classical, quasi-monolithically forming bulges in their star formation history (SFH) and chemical abundance patterns. To test thi…

A young star-forming galaxy at z = 3.5 with an extended Ly\, halo seen with MUSE

Vera Patrício, Johan Richard, Anne Verhamme +12

Spatially resolved studies of high redshift galaxies, an essential insight into galaxy formation processes, have been mostly limited to stacking or unusually bright objects. We pre…

Spectroscopic aperture biases in inside-out evolving early-type galaxies from CALIFA

J. M. Gomes, P. Papaderos, J. M. Vílchez +21

Integral field spectroscopy studies based on CALIFA data have recently revealed the presence of ongoing low-level star formation (SF) in the periphery of ~10% of local early-type g…

Spiral-like star-forming patterns in CALIFA early-type galaxies

J. M. Gomes, P. Papaderos, J. M. Vílchez +21

Based on a combined analysis of SDSS imaging and CALIFA integral field spectroscopy data, we report on the detection of faint (24 < μ mag/arcsec < 26) star-forming spiral-a…

Anatomy of a blazar in the (sub-)millimeter: ALMA Observations of PKS 0521-365

S. Leon, P. C. Cortes, M. Guerard +4

We aim at analyzing the (sub-)millimeter emission in a nearby blazar, PKS 0521-365 , to study the synchrotron and thermal emission in the different components detected at low frequ…

Outer-disk reddening and gas-phase metallicities: The CALIFA connection

R. A. Marino, A. Gil de Paz, S. F. Sánchez +27

We study, for the first time in a statistically significant and well-defined sample, the relation between the outer-disk ionized-gas metallicity gradients and the presence of break…

VLT-FORS2 optical imaging and spectroscopy of 9 luminous type 2 AGN at 0.3<z<0.6: I. Ionized gas nebulae

A. Humphrey, M. Villar-Martín, C. Ramos Almeida +4

We present optical imaging and long slit spectroscopic observations of 9 luminous type 2 AGNs within the redshift range 0.3<z<0.6 based on VLT-FORS2 data. Most objects (6/9) are hi…

GTC optical imaging of extremely red 5C radio galaxies at high redshift

A. Humphrey, M. Villar-Martín, P. Lagos

We investigate the nature of seven unusual radio galaxies from the 5C catalogue that were previously known to have extremely red R-K colours, and for which emission lines were prev…

Star Formation in the Local Universe from the CALIFA sample. I. Calibrating the SFR using IFS data

C. Catalán-Torrecilla, A. Gil de Paz, A. Castillo-Morales +24

The Star Formation Rate (SFR) is one of the main parameters used to analyze the evolution of galaxies through time. The need for recovering the light reprocessed by dust commonly r…

The Gaia-ESO Survey: Insights on the inner-disc evolution from open clusters

L. Magrini, S. Randich, P. Donati +37

Context. The inner disc, linking the thin disc with the bulge, has been somehow neglected in the past because of intrinsic difficulties in its study, due, e.g., to crowding and hig…
