Red & Dead CANDELS: massive passive galaxies at the dawn of the Universe
E. Merlin, F. Fortuni, M. Torelli +7
We search the five CANDELS fields (COSMOS, EGS, GOODS-North, GOODS-South and UDS) for passively evolving a.k.a. "red and dead" massive galaxies in the first 2 Gyr after the Big Ban…
Horizontal branch morphology: A new photometric parametrization
Marianna Torelli, Giacinto Iannicola, Peter B. Stetson +8
Theory and observations indicate that the distribution of stars along the horizontal branch of Galactic globular clusters mainly depends on the metal content. However, the existenc…
Passive galaxies in the early Universe: ALMA confirmation of z~3-5 candidates in the CANDELS GOODS-South field
P. Santini, E. Merlin, A. Fontana +7
The selection of red, passive galaxies in the early Universe is very challenging, especially beyond z~3, and it is crucial to constrain theoretical modelling of the processes respo…
