Ionization Source of a Minor-axis Cloud in the Outer Halo of M82

K. Matsubayashi, H. Sugai, A. Shimono +8

The M82 `cap' is a gas cloud at a projected radius of 11.6 kpc along the minor axis of this well known superwind source. The cap has been detected in optical line emission and X-ra…

CALIFA, the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. II. First public data release

CALIFA collaboration, B. Husemann, K. Jahnke +74

We present the first public data release of the CALIFA survey. It consists of science-grade optical datacubes for the first 100 of eventually 600 nearby (0.005<z<0.03) galaxies, ob…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): The mass-metallicity relationship

C. Foster, A. M. Hopkins, M. Gunawardhana +37

Context: The mass-metallicity relationship (MMR) of star-forming galaxies is well-established, however there is still some disagreement with respect to its exact shape and its poss…

First starlight spectrum captured using an integrated photonic micro-spectrograph

N. Cvetojevic, N. Jovanovic, C. Betters +4

Photonic technologies have received growing consideration for incorporation into next-generation astronomical instrumentation, owing to their miniature footprint and inherent robus…

Integral field spectroscopy of a sample of nearby galaxies: II. Properties of the H ii regions

S. F. Sanchez, F. F. Rosales-Ortega, R. A. Marino +17

In this work we analyze the spectroscopic properties of a large number of H ii regions, \sim2600, located in 38 galaxies. The sample of galaxies has been assembled from the face-on…

GASKAP -- The Galactic ASKAP Survey

J. M. Dickey, N. McClure-Griffiths, S. J. Gibson +55

A survey of the Milky Way disk and the Magellanic System at the wavelengths of the 21-cm atomic hydrogen (HI) line and three 18-cm lines of the OH molecule will be carried out with…

The origin of the split red clump in the Galactic bulge of the Milky Way

M. Ness, K. Freeman, E. Athanassoula +8

Near the minor axis of the Galactic bulge, at latitudes b < -5 degrees, the red giant clump stars are split into two components along the line of sight. We investigate this split u…

Suppression of the near-infrared OH night sky lines with fibre Bragg gratings - first results

S. C. Ellis, J. Bland-Hawthorn, J. Lawrence +20

The background noise between 1 and 1.8 microns in ground-based instruments is dominated by atmospheric emission from hydroxyl molecules. We have built and commissioned a new instru…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): Galaxy environments and star formation rate variations

D. B. Wijesinghe, A. M. Hopkins, S. Brough +23

We present a detailed investigation into the effects of galaxy environment on their star formation rates (SFR) using galaxies observed in the Galaxy and Mass Assembly Survey (GAMA)…

The ionized gas in the CALIFA early-type galaxies I. Mapping two representative cases: NGC 6762 and NGC 5966

C. Kehrig, A. Monreal-Ibero, P. Papaderos +18

As part of the CALIFA survey, we conducted a thorough 2D analysis of the ionized gas in two E/S0 galaxies, NGC6762 and NGC5966, aiming to shed light on the nature of their warm ion…
