Tracing the evolution of massive galaxies up to z \sim 3
M. Longhetti, P. Saracco, S. Cristiani +4
A census of massive galaxies at redshift increasingly higher than 1 may provide strong constraints on the history of mass assembly and of star formation. Here we report on t…
The TESIS project: revealing massive early-type galaxies at z>1
P. Saracco, M. Longhetti, P. Severgnini +8
We present the preliminary results of an on-going near-IR low resolution spectroscopic follow-up of a complete sample of 30 bright (K'<18.5) EROs selected over 360 arcmin^2 from th…
Interpreting the optical data of the Hubble Deep Field South: colors, morphological number counts and photometric redshifts
M. Volonteri, P. Saracco, G. Chincarini +1
We present an analysis of the optical data of the Hubble Deep Field South. We derive F300W(AB), F450W(AB), F606W(AB) and F814W(AB) number counts for galaxies in all four bands. The…
GRB 990510: linearly polarized radiation from a fireball
S. Covino, D. Lazzati, G. Ghisellini +12
Models for gamma-ray burst afterglows envisage an hyper-relativistic fireball that is decelerated in the ambient medium around the explosion site. This interaction produces a shock…
The longitudinal and transverse responses in the inclusive electron scattering
R. Cenni, F. Conte, P. Saracco
The splitting between the charge-longitudinal and spin-transverse responses is explained in a model whose inputs are the effective interactions in the particle-hole channels in the…
A functional approach to nuclear electromagnetic response functions
R. Cenni, F. Conte, P. Saracco
The separated electromagnetic responses and for inclusive electron scattering off nuclei are studied within a functional scheme.
