Focusing versus defocusing properties of truly naked black holes

Naresh Dadhich, Oleg B. Zaslavskii

We study the properties of the congruence of null geodesics propagating near the so-called truly naked horizons (TNH) - objects having finite Kretschmann scalar but with diverging…

Obscured and powerful AGN and starburst activities at z~3.5

M. Polletta, A. Omont, S. Berta +9

We report the discovery of two sources at z=3.867 and z=3.427 that exhibit powerful starburst and AGN activities. They benefit from data from radio to X rays from the CFHTLS-D1/SWI…

Galactic dynamo action in presence of stochastic alpha and shear

Sharanya Sur, Kandaswamy Subramanian

Using a one-dimensional -dynamo model appropriate to galaxies, we study the possibility of dynamo action driven by a stochastic alpha effect and shear. To determine the field e…

Images IV: Strong evolution of the oxygen abundance in gaseous phases of intermediate mass galaxies since z=0.8

M. Rodrigues, F. Hammer, H. Flores +22

Intermediate mass galaxies (logM(Msun)>10) at z~0.6 are the likeliest progenitors of the present-day numerous population of spirals. There is growing evidence that they have evolve…

HD molecules at high redshift: A low astration factor of deuterium in a solar-metallicity DLA system at z=2.418

P. Noterdaeme, P. Petitjean, C. Ledoux +2

We present the detection of deuterated molecular hydrogen (HD) in the remote Universe in a damped Lyman-alpha cloud at zabs=2.418 toward the quasar SDSS J143912.04+111740.5. This i…

Detection of the 2175Å~ extinction feature and 21-cm absorption in two MgII systems at z~1.3

R. Srianand, N. Gupta, P. Petitjean +2

We have discovered two dusty intervening MgII absorption systems at z~1.3 in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) database. The overall spectra of both QSOs are red (u-K>4.5 mag) an…
