Morphological Fractions of Galaxies in WINGS Clusters: revisiting the Morphology-Density Paradigm
G. Fasano, B. M. Poggianti, D. Bettoni +11
We present the Morphology-Density and Morphology-Radius relations (T-Sigma and T-R, respectively) obtained from the WINGS database of galaxies in nearby clusters. Aiming to achieve…
The red-sequence of 72 WINGS local galaxy clusters
T. Valentinuzzi, B. M. Poggianti, G. Fasano +14
We study the color-magnitude red sequence and blue fraction of 72 X-ray selected galaxy clusters at z=0.04-0.07 from the WINGS survey, searching for correlations between the charac…
The Sky is for Everyone - Outreach and Educaction with the Virtual Observatory
Florian Freistetter, Giulia Iafrate, Massimo Ramella
The Virtual Observatory (VO) is an international attempt to collect astronomical data (images, simulation, mission-logs, etc), organize it and develop tools that let astronomers ac…
The Double Didactic Astronomical Quadrant for the XIII International Astronomical Olympiad
Michele Maris, Claudio Corte, Conrad Boehm +2
Here we present the development of a simplified version of double astronomical quadrant, designed for educational aims and realized on the occasion of the observational round of th…
SHELS: Testing Weak Lensing Maps with Redshift Surveys
Margaret J. Geller, Michael J. Kurtz, Ian P. Dell'Antonio +2
Weak lensing surveys are emerging as an important tool for the construction of "mass selected" clusters of galaxies. We evaluate both the efficiency and completeness of a weak lens…
WINGS-SPE Spectroscopy in the WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey
A. Cava, D. Bettoni, B. M. Poggianti +11
Aims. We present the results from a comprehensive spectroscopic survey of the WINGS (WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey) clusters, a program called WINGS-SPE. The WINGS-SPE sa…
