NGC1277: a massive compact relic galaxy in the nearby Universe
Ignacio Trujillo, Anna Ferre-Mateu, Marc Balcells +2
As early as 10 Gyr ago, galaxies with more than 10^11 Msun in stars already existed. While most of these massive galaxies must have subsequently transformed through on-going star f…
The galaxy-wide IMF of dwarf late-type to massive early-type galaxies
Carsten Weidner, Pavel Kroupa, Jan Pflamm-Altenburg +1
Observational studies are showing that the galaxy-wide stellar initial mass function are top-heavy in galaxies with high star-formation rates (SFRs). Calculating the integrated gal…
Fully cosmological virtual massive galaxies at z=0: kinematical, morphological, and stellar population characterisation
Javier Navarro-González, Elena Ricciardelli, Vicent Quilis +1
We present the results of a numerical adaptive mesh refinement hydrodynamical and N-body simulation in a cosmology. We focus on the analysis of the main properties of massiv…
The (galaxy-wide) IMF in giant elliptical galaxies: From top to bottom
Carsten Weidner, Ignacio Ferreras, Alexandre Vazdekis +1
Recent evidence based independently on spectral line strengths and dynamical modelling point towards a non-universal stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF), probably implying an exces…
Resolving galaxies in time and space: II: Uncertainties in the spectral synthesis of datacubes
R. Cid Fernandes, R. M. Gonzalez Delgado, R. Garcia Benito +11
In a companion paper we have presented many products derived from the application of the spectral synthesis code STARLIGHT to datacubes from the CALIFA survey, including 2D maps of…
Bottom-heavy initial mass function in a nearby compact L*-galaxy
Ronald Läsker, Remco C. E. van den Bosch, Glenn van de Ven +4
We present orbit-based dynamical models and stellar population analysis of galaxy SDSS J151741.75-004217.6, a low-redshift (z=0.116) early-type galaxy (ETG) which, for its moderate…
