MEGADES: MEGARA Galaxy Discs Evolution Survey. Data Release I: central fields
M. Chamorro-Cazorla, A. Gil de Paz, A. Castillo-Morales +12
The main interest of the Science Team for the exploitation of the MEGARA instrument at the 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC hereafter) is devoted to the study of nearby galaxies…
Ultraviolet-to-far-infra-red self-consistent analysis of the stellar populations of massive starburst galaxies at intermediate redshifts
Néstor Espino-Briones, Pablo G. Pérez-González, Jaime Zamorano +1
We study in detail the properties of the stellar populations of 111 massive ( dusty (FIR-selected) starburst () gal…
Creating lenticular galaxies with major mergers
Miguel Querejeta, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Trinidad Tapia +8
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) represent the majority of early-type galaxies in the local Universe, but their formation channels are still poorly understood. While galaxy mergers are ob…
Creating S0s with major mergers: a 3D view
Miguel Querejeta, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Trinidad Tapia +8
A number of simulators have argued that major mergers can sometimes preserve discs (e.g. Springel & Hernquist 2005), but the possibility that they could explain the emergence of le…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. Bulge-disc structural coupling resulting from major mergers
M. Querejeta, M. C. Eliche-Moral, T. Tapia +4
Observations reveal a strong structural coupling between bulge and disc in S0 galaxies, which seems difficult to explain if they have formed from supposedly catastrophic events suc…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. V. Antitruncated stellar discs resulting from major mergers
Alejandro Borlaff, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Cristina Rodríguez-Pérez +6
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) are more likely to host antitruncated (Type-III) stellar discs than galaxies of later Hubble types. Major mergers are popularly considered too violent mec…
