The evolution of the star formation activity in galaxies and its dependence on environment
B. M. Poggianti, A. von der Linden, G. De Lucia +16
We study how the proportion of star-forming galaxies evolves between z=0.8 and z=0 as a function of galaxy environment, using the [OII] line in emission as a signature of ongoing s…
Weak lensing mass reconstructions of the ESO Distant Cluster Survey
D. Clowe, P. Schneider, A. Aragon-Salamanca +12
We present weak lensing mass reconstructions for the 20 high-redshift clusters i n the ESO Distant Cluster Survey. The weak lensing analysis was performed on deep, 3-color optical…
A counter-rotating core in the dwarf elliptical galaxy VCC 510
D. Thomas, F. Brimioulle, R. Bender +4
We present optical long-slit spectra of the Virgo dwarf elliptical galaxy VCC 510 at high spectral and spatial resolution. Heliocentric velocities and velocity dispersions as funct…
Dynamical Mass Estimates for Two Luminous Star Clusters in Galactic Merger Remnants
N. Bastian, R. P. Saglia, P. Goudfrooij +4
We present high-dispersion spectra of two extremely massive star clusters in galactic merger remnants. One cluster, W30, is located in the ~500 Myr old merger remnant NGC 7252 and…
The evolution of the luminosity functions in the FORS Deep Field from low to high redshift: II. The red bands
A. Gabasch, U. Hopp, G. Feulner +12
We present the redshift evolution of the restframe galaxy luminosity function (LF) in the red r', i', and z' bands as derived from the FORS Deep Field (FDF). Using the deep and hom…
Planetary nebulae and stellar kinematics in the flattened elliptical galaxy NGC 1344
A. M. Teodorescu, R. H. Mendez, R. P. Saglia +4
We present photometric and kinematic information obtained by measuring 197 planetary nebulae (PNs) discovered in the flattened Fornax elliptical galaxy NGC 1344 (also known as NGC…
