Star formation and gas in the minor merger UGC 10214

D. Rosado-Belza, U. Lisenfeld, J. Hibbard +6

UGC 10214 is a minor merger in which a dwarf galaxy has interacted with a large spiral galaxy 250 Myr ago and produced a perturbed disk and a giant tidal tail. We use a multi…

Metals and dust content across the galaxies M101 and NGC 628

J. M. Vilchez, M. Relano, R. Kennicutt +3

We present a spatially resolved study of the relation between dust and metallicity in the nearby spiral galaxies M101 (NGC 5457) and NGC 628 (M74). We explore the relation between…

Inner bars also buckle. The MUSE TIMER view of the double-barred galaxy NGC 1291

J. Mendez-Abreu, A. de Lorenzo-Caceres, D. A. Gadotti +8

Double bars are thought to be important features for secular evolution in the central regions of galaxies. However, observational evidence about their origin and evolution is still…

Estimate of the Accretion Disk Size in the Gravitationally Lensed Quasar HE 0435-1223 using Microlensing Magnification Statistics

C. Fian, E. Mediavilla, J. Jiménez-Vicente +2

We present a measurement of the accretion disk size of the quadruple lensed quasar HE 0435-1223 from well-sampled 13-yr COSMOGRAIL optical light curves. Using accurate time delays…

Time Inference with MUSE in Extragalactic Rings (TIMER): Properties of the Survey and High-Level Data Products

Dimitri A. Gadotti, Patricia Sánchez-Blázquez, Jesús Falcón-Barroso +14

The Time Inference with MUSE in Extragalactic Rings (TIMER) project is a survey with the VLT-MUSE integral-field spectrograph of 24 nearby barred galaxies with prominent central st…

Molecular gas and Star Formation Properties in Early Stage Mergers: SMA CO(2-1) Observations of the LIRGs NGC 3110 and NGC 232

D. Espada, S. Martin, S. Verley +13

Mergers of galaxies are an important mode for galaxy evolution because they serve as an efficient trigger of powerful starbursts. However, observational studies of the molecular ga…

Comprehensive comparison of models for spectral energy distributions from 0.1 micron to 1 mm of nearby star-forming galaxies

L. K. Hunt, I. De Looze, M. Boquien +26

We have fit the far-ultraviolet (FUV) to sub-millimeter (850 micron) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of the 61 galaxies from the "Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: A Far-Infrar…

Systematic Redshift of the Fe III UV Lines in Quasars. Measuring Supermassive Black Hole Masses under the Gravitational Redshift Hypothesis

E. Mediavilla, J. JimÉnez-Vicente, C. Fian +4

We find that the Fe III2039-2113 spectral feature in quasars appears systematically redshifted by amounts accountable under the hypothesis of gravitational redshift induced by…

Microlensing and Intrinsic Variability of the Broad Emission Lines of Lensed Quasars

C. Fian, Eduardo Guerras, E. Mediavilla +5

We study the BELs in a sample of 11 gravitationally lensed quasars with at least two epochs of observation to identify intrinsic variability and to disentangle it from microlensing…

Integrated-light analyses vs. colour-magnitude diagrams - II. Leo A, an extremely young dwarf in the Local Group

T. Ruiz-Lara, C. Gallart, M. Beasley +7

Context. Most of our knowledge on the stellar component of galaxies is based on the analysis of distant systems and comes from integrated light data. It is important to test whethe…

HI Observations of Major-Merger Pairs at z = 0: atomic gas and star formation

Pei Zuo, Cong K. Xu, Min S. Yun +3

We present a study of the HI gas content of a large K-band selected sample of 88 close major-merger pairs of galaxies (H-KPAIR) which were observed by . We obtained t…

Chemical evolution with rotating massive star yields: I. The solar neighbourhood and the s-process elements

N. Prantzos, C. Abia, M. Limongi +2

We present a comprehensive study of the abundance evolution of the elements from H to U in the Milky Way halo and local disk. We use a consistent chemical evolution model, metallic…

PISCO: The Pmas/ppak Integral-field Supernova hosts COmpilation

L. Galbany, J. P. Anderson, S. F. Sánchez +16

We present the Pmas/ppak Integral-field Supernova hosts COmpilation (PISCO) which comprises Integral Field Spectroscopy (IFS) of 232 supernova (SN) host galaxies, that hosted 272 S…

Herschel Spectroscopy of the Taffy Galaxies (UGC 12914/12915 = VV 254): Enhanced [C II] emission in the collisionally-formed bridge

B. W. Peterson, P. N. Appleton, T. Bitsakis +17

Using the PACS and SPIRE spectrometers on-board Herschel, we obtained observations of the Taffy galaxies (UGC 12914/12915) and bridge. The Taffy system is believed to be the result…

Spatially resolving the dust properties and submillimetre excess in M 33

M. Relaño, I. De Looze, R. C. Kennicutt +9

The relative abundance of the dust grain types in the interstellar medium (ISM) is directly linked to physical quantities that trace the evolution of galaxies. We study the dust pr…
