Recovering star formation histories: Integrated-light analyses vs stellar colour-magnitude diagrams

T. Ruiz-Lara, I. Pérez, C. Gallart +12

Accurate star formation histories (SFHs) of galaxies are fundamental for understanding the build-up of their stellar content. However, the most accurate SFHs - those obtained from…

Integral-Field Stellar and Ionized Gas Kinematics of Peculiar Virgo Cluster Spiral Galaxies

J. R. Cortés, J. D. P. Kenney, E. Hardy

We present the stellar and ionized gas kinematics of 13 bright peculiar Virgo cluster galaxies observed with the DensePak Integral Field Unit at the WIYN 3.5-meter telescope, to se…

Metallicities, Age--Metallicity relationships, and Kinematics of Red Giant Branch Stars in the Outer Disk of the Large Magellanic Cloud

R. Carrera, C. Gallart, A. Aparicio +1

The outer disk of the LMC is studied in order to unveil clues about its formation and evolution. Complementing our previous studies in innermost fields (3<R<7 kpc), we obtained dee…

The Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey VII: A Neutral Hydrogen Cloud Complex in the Virgo Cluster

Brian R. Kent, Kristine Spekkens, Riccardo Giovanelli +5

We present observations of an HI cloud complex most likely located in the Virgo galaxy cluster, first reported by Kent et al. (2007). The complex consists of five clouds, detected…

The Chemical Enrichment History of the Large Magellanic Cloud

Ricardo Carrera, Carme Gallart, Eduardo Hardy +2

Ca II triplet spectroscopy has been used to derive stellar metallicities for individual stars in four LMC fields situated at galactocentric distances of 3\arcdeg, 5\arcdeg, 6\arcde…
