The colours of z=2 QSO host galaxies
I. Aretxaga, R. J. Terlevich, B. J. Boyle
Three high-redshift (z=2) and high luminosity (M_B < -28 mag for Ho = 50, qo=0.5) QSOs, two radio-quiet one radio-loud, were imaged in R, I and K bands. The luminosities, colours a…
Multicolour imaging of z= 2 QSO hosts
I. Aretxaga, R. J. Terlevich, B. J. Boyle
We present multicolour images of the hosts of three z=2 QSOs previously detected in R-band by our group. The luminosities, colours and sizes of the hosts overlap with those of acti…
The cosmological evolution of the QSO luminosity density and of the star formation rate
B. J. Boyle, Roberto Terlevich
We demonstrate that the evolution of the QSO luminosity density with epoch displays a striking similarity to the cosmological evolution of the field galaxy star formation rate, rec…
Patterns and Coincidences in the Light Curves of Active Galaxies
R. Cid Fernandes, R. Terlevich, I. Aretxaga
We draw attention to some intriguing coincident patterns in the optical light curves of NGC 4151 and NGC 5548. Inspecting the light curves of these two classic Seyferts, we find ev…
New diagnostic methods for emission-line galaxies in deep surveys
Claudia S. Rola, Elena Terlevich, Roberto J. Terlevich
We present new quantitative classification methods for emission-line galaxies, which are specially designed to be used in deep galaxy redshift surveys. A good segregation between s…
A New Superwind Wolf-Rayet Galaxy Mrk 1259
Y. Ohyama, Y. Taniguchi, R. Terlevich
We report the discovery of a starburst-driven wind (superwind) from the starburst nucleus galaxy Mrk 1259. The estimated number ratio of Wolf-Rayet (WR) to O stars amounts to ~0.09…
The hosts of QSOs
Itziar Aretxaga, Brian J. Boyle, Roberto J. Terlevich
We present results of the hosts of four high-redshift () and high luminosity ($M_B \lsim -28$ mag) QSOs, three radio-quiet one radio-loud, imaged in R and K bands. The…
The Morphology of HII Galaxies
Eduardo Telles, Jorge Melnick, Roberto Terlevich
We present CCD images of a sample of 39 HII galaxies taken at the Danish 1.54m telescope on La Silla. The images are used to analyse the morphology of these emission line dwarfs, a…
