The SDSS-UKIDSS Fundamental Plane of Early-type Galaxies
F. La Barbera, G. Busarello, P. Merluzzi +3
We derive the Fundamental Plane (FP) relation for a sample of 1430 early-type galaxies in the optical (r band) and the near-infrared (K band), by combining SDSS and UKIDSS data. Wi…
Global Properties of the Rich Cluster ABCG 209 at z~0.2. Spectroscopic and Photometric Catalogue
A. Mercurio, F. La Barbera, C. P. Haines +3
This paper is aimed at giving an overview of the global properties of the rich cluster of galaxies ABCG 209. This is achieved by complementing the already available data with new m…
The SDSS-GALEX viewpoint of the truncated red sequence in field environments at z~0
C. P. Haines, A. Gargiulo, P. Merluzzi
We combine GALEX near-UV photometry with a volume-limited sample of local (0.005<z<0.037) SDSS DR4 galaxies to examine the composition and the environmental dependencies of the opt…
The Different Physical Mechanisms that Drive the Star-Formation Histories of Giant and Dwarf Galaxies
C. P. Haines, A. Gargiulo, F. La Barbera +3
We present an analysis of star-formation and nuclear activity in galaxies as a function of both luminosity and environment in the SDSS DR4 dataset. Using a sample of 27753 galaxies…
Weak Lensing Mass Reconstruction of the Galaxy Cluster Abell 209
S. Paulin-Henriksson, V. Antonuccio-Delogu, C. P. Haines +3
Weak lensing applied to deep optical images of clusters of galaxies provides a powerful tool to reconstruct the distribution of the gravitating mass associated to these structures.…
The Environmental Dependencies of Star-formation and the Origin of the Bimodality in Galaxy Properties
C. P. Haines, A. Gargiulo, A. Mercurio +4
We examine the origins of the bimodality observed in the global properties of galaxies by comparing the environmental dependencies of star-formation for giant and dwarf galaxy popu…
