Investigating the potential of the Pan-Planets project using Monte Carlo simulations
J. Koppenhoefer, C. Afonso, R. P. Saglia +1
Using Monte Carlo simulations we analyze the potential of the upcoming transit survey Pan-Planets. The analysis covers the simulation of realistic light curves (including the effec…
The environments of starburst and post-starburst galaxies at z=0.4-0.8
Bianca M. Poggianti, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca, Dennis Zaritsky +16
Post-starburst (E+A or k+a) spectra, characterized by their exceptionally strong Balmer lines in absorption and the lack of emission lines, belong to galaxies in which the star for…
The supermassive black hole of Fornax A
N. Nowak, R. P. Saglia, J. Thomas +3
The radio galaxy Fornax A (NGC 1316) is a prominent merger remnant in the outskirts of the Fornax cluster. Its giant radio lobes suggest the presence of a powerful AGN and thus a c…
Stellar Populations of Bulges in 14 Cluster Disc Galaxies
L. Morelli, E. Pompei, A. Pizzella +6
Photometry and long-slit spectroscopy are presented for 14 S0 and spiral galaxies of the Fornax, Eridanus and Pegasus cluster, and NGC 7582 group. The structural parameters of the…
The relation between star formation, morphology and local density in high redshift clusters and groups
Bianca M. Poggianti, Vandana Desai, Rose Finn +17
We investigate how the [OII] properties and the morphologies of galaxies in clusters and groups at z=0.4-0.8 depend on projected local galaxy density, and compare with the field at…
The evolution of the brightest cluster galaxies since z~1 from the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS)
I. M. Whiley, A. Aragon-Salamanca, G. De Lucia +13
[Abridged] We present K-band data for the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) from the ESO Distant Cluster Survey. These data are combined with photometry from Aragon-Salamanca et al…
