CANDELS+3D-HST: compact SFGs at z~2-3, the progenitors of the first quiescent galaxies

G. Barro, S. M. Faber, P. G. Perez-Gonzalez +32

We analyze the star-forming and structural properties of 45 massive (log(M/Msun)>10) compact star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at 2<z<3 to explore whether they are progenitors of compac…

Transformation of a Virgo Cluster Dwarf Irregular Galaxy by Ram Pressure Stripping: IC3418 and its Fireballs

Jeffrey D. P. Kenney, Marla Geha, Pavel Jachym +5

We present optical imaging and spectroscopy and HI imaging of the Virgo Cluster galaxy IC 3418, which is likely a "smoking gun" example of the transformation of a dwarf irregular i…

Confirmation of Small Dynamical and Stellar Masses for Extreme Emission Line Galaxies at z~2

Michael V. Maseda, Arjen van der Wel, Elisabete da Cunha +21

Spectroscopic observations from the Large Binocular Telescope and the Very Large Telescope reveal kinematically narrow lines (~50 km/s) for a sample of 14 Extreme Emission Line Gal…

Demographics of Sloan Digital Sky Survey galaxies along the Hubble sequence

Kyuseok Oh, Hyunseop Choi, Hong-Geun Kim +2

We present the statistical properties of a volume-limited sample of 7,429 nearby (z = 0.033 - 0.044) galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7. Our database include…

How dead are dead galaxies? Mid-Infrared fluxes of quiescent galaxies at redshift 0.3 < z < 2.5: implications for star formation rates and dust heating

Mattia Fumagalli, Ivo Labbe, Shannon G. Patel +17

We investigate the star formation rates of quiescent galaxies at high redshift (0.3 < z < 2.5) using 3D-HST WFC3 grism spectroscopy and Spitzer mid-infrared data. We select quiesce…

On the nature of sodium excess objects. I. Data and observed trends

Hyunjin Jeong, Sukyoung K. Yi, Jaemann Kyeong +3

Several studies have reported the presence of sodium excess objects that have neutral atomic absorption lines at 5895A (NaD) and 8190A that are deeper than expected based on stella…

Sussing Merger Trees: The Merger Trees Comparison Project

Chaichalit Srisawat, Alexander Knebe, Frazer R. Pearce +15

Merger trees follow the growth and merger of dark-matter haloes over cosmic history. As well as giving important insights into the growth of cosmic structure in their own right, th…

Merger relics of cluster galaxies

Sukyoung K. Yi, Jaehyun Lee, Intae Jung +2

Context. Sheen and collaborators recently found that a surprisingly large portion (38%) of massive early-type galaxies in heavy clusters show strong merger-related disturbed featur…

The effect of second generation populations on the integrated colors of metal-rich globular clusters in early-type galaxies

Chul Chung, Sang-Yoon Lee, Suk-Jin Yoon +1

The mean color of globular clusters (GCs) in early-type galaxies is in general bluer than the integrated color of halo field stars in host galaxies. Metal-rich GCs often appear mor…

The Lick AGN Monitoring Project 2011: Fe II Reverberation from the Outer Broad-Line Region

Aaron J. Barth, Anna Pancoast, Vardha N. Bennert +26

The prominent broad Fe II emission blends in the spectra of active galactic nuclei have been shown to vary in response to continuum variations, but past attempts to measure the rev…

Large-scale radio continuum properties of 19 Virgo cluster galaxies The influence of tidal interactions, ram pressure stripping, and accreting gas envelopes

B. Vollmer, M. Soida, R. Beck +5

Deep scaled array VLA 20 and 6cm observations including polarization of 19 Virgo spirals are presented. This sample contains 6 galaxies with a global minimum of 20cm polarized emis…

The Mid-Infrared and Near-Ultraviolet Excess Emissions of Quiescent Galaxies on the Red Sequence

Jongwan Ko, Ho Seong Hwang, Jong Chul Lee +1

We study the mid-infrared (IR) and near-ultraviolet (UV) excess emissions of spectroscopically selected quiescent galaxies on the optical red sequence. We use the Wide-field Infrar…

On ths assembly history of stellar components in massive galaxies

Jaehyun Lee, Sukyoung K. Yi

Matsuoka & Kawara (2010) showed that the number density of the most massive galaxies (log M/M_sun=11.5-12.0) increases faster than that of the next massive group (log M/M_sun=11.0-…
