The dynamical state of Abell 2399: a bullet-like cluster
Ana C. C. Lourenço, P. A. A. Lopes, T. F. Laganá +8
While there are many ways to identify substructures in galaxy clusters using different wavelengths, each technique has its own caveat. In this paper, we conduct a detailed substruc…
Intrinsic scatter of caustic masses and hydrostatic bias: An observational study
S. Andreon, G. Trinchieri, A. Moretti +1
All estimates of cluster mass have some intrinsic scatter and perhaps some bias with true mass even in the absence of measurement errors for example caused by cluster triaxiality a…
OmegaWINGS: spectroscopy in the outskirts of local clusters of galaxies
A. Moretti, M. Gullieuszik, B. Poggianti +9
Studies of the properties of low-redshift cluster galaxies suffer, in general, from small spatial coverage of the cluster area. WINGS, the most homogeneous and complete study of ga…
The structure of the X-ray absorber in Mrk 915 revealed by Swift
P. Severgnini, L. Ballo, V. Braito +5
In this paper we present the results obtained with a monitoring programme (23 days long) performed with Swift-XRT on the local Seyfert galaxy Mrk 915. The light-curve analysis show…
Galaxy Luminosity Functions in WINGS clusters
A. Moretti, D. Bettoni, B. M. Poggianti +9
Using V band photometry of the WINGS survey, we derive galaxy luminosity functions (LF) in nearby clusters. This sample is complete down to Mv=-15.15, and it is homogeneous, thus a…
OmegaWINGS: OmegaCAM@VST observations of WINGS galaxy clusters
M. Gullieuszik, B. Poggianti, G. Fasano +13
The Wide-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey (WINGS) is a wide-field multi-wavelength survey of X-ray selected clusters at z =0.04-0.07. The original 34'x34' WINGS field-of- view ha…
The Swift X-ray Telescope Cluster Survey II. X-ray spectral analysis
P. Tozzi, A. Moretti, E. Tundo +7
(Abridged) We present a spectral analysis of a new, flux-limited sample of 72 X-ray selected clusters of galaxies identified with the X-ray Telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satel…
WINGS Data Release: a database of galaxies in nearby clusters
A. Moretti, B. M. Poggianti, G. Fasano +15
[Abridged] To effectively investigate galaxy formation and evolution, it is of paramount importance to exploit homogeneous data for large samples of galaxies in different environme…
The hybrid solution for the Fundamental Plane
M. D'Onofrio, G. Fasano, A. Moretti +14
By exploiting the database of early-type galaxies (ETGs) members of the WINGS survey of nearby clusters, we address here the long debated question of the origin and shape of the Fu…
The galaxy stellar mass function and its evolution with time show no dependence on global environment
Benedetta Vulcani, Bianca M. Poggianti, August Oemler +7
We present the analysis of the galaxy stellar mass function in different environments at intermediate redshift (0.3<z<0.8) for two mass-limited galaxy samples. We use the IMACS Clu…
On the connection between shape and stellar population in early-type galaxies
M. D'Onofrio, T. Valentinuzzi, G. Fasano +11
We report on the discovery of a relation between the stellar mass of early-type galaxies (hereafter ETGs), their shape, as parametrized by the Sersic index , and their ste…
Achromatic Breaks for Swift GRBs: Any Evidence?
S. Covino, D. Malesani, G. Tagliaferri +5
The availability of multi-wavelength high-quality data of gamma-ray burst afterglows in the Swift era, contrary to the expectations, did not allow us to fully confirm yet one of th…
