The star formation rate history in the FORS Deep and GOODS South Fields
A. Gabasch, M. Salvato, R. P. Saglia +8
We measure the star formation rate (SFR) as a function of redshift z up to z \~4.5, based on B, I and (I+B) selected galaxy catalogues from the FORS Deep Field (FDF) and the K-sele…
Structural properties of discs and bulges of early-type galaxies
Roelof S. de Jong, Luc Simard, Roger L. Davies +5
We have used the EFAR sample of galaxies to study the light distributions of early-type galaxies. We decompose the 2D light distribution of the galaxies in a flattened spheroidal c…
Nuclear stellar discs in low-luminosity elliptical galaxies: NGC 4458 and NGC 4478
L. Morelli, C. Halliday, E. M. Corsini +7
We present the detection of nuclear stellar discs in the low-luminosity elliptical galaxies NGC 4458 and NGC 4478, which are known to host a kinematically-decoupled core. Using arc…
Spectroscopy of clusters in the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS)
C. Halliday, B. Milvang-Jensen, S. Poirier +12
We present spectroscopic observations of galaxies in 4 clusters at z = 0.7-0.8 and in one cluster at z~0.5 obtained with the FORS2 spectrograph on the VLT as part of the ESO Distan…
The build-up of the red-sequence in galaxy clusters since z~0.8
G. De Lucia, B. M. Poggianti, A. Aragon-Salamanca +10
We study the rest-frame (U-V) color-magnitude relation in 4 clusters at redshifts 0.7-0.8, drawn from the ESO Distant Cluster Survey. We confirm that red-sequence galaxies in these…
Mapping stationary axisymmetric phase-space distribution functions by orbit libraries
J. Thomas, R. P. Saglia, R. Bender +4
This is the first of a series of papers dedicated to unveil the mass composition and dynamical structure of a sample of flattened early type galaxies in the Coma cluster. We descri…
