Interpreting the kinematics of the extended gas in distant radiogalaxies from 8-10m telescope spectra
M. Villar-Martin, A. Alonso-Herrero, S. di Serego Alighieri +1
The nature of the extreme kinematics in the extended gas of distant radio galaxies (z>0.7) is still an open question. With the advent of the 8-10 m telescope generation and the dev…
Gas metallicities and early evolution of distant radiogalaxies
M. Villar-Martin, R. A. E. Fosbury, J. Vernet +3
By modeling the rich emission line spectra of a sample of high redshift (HzRG, z\sim 2.5) radio galaxies we find that solar and supersolar metallicities are common in the extended…
Keck Observations of the Hidden Quasar IRAS P09104+4109
Hien D. Tran, M. H. Cohen, M. Villar-Martin
We present imaging and spectro- polarimetric observations of the ultraluminous infrared galaxy IRAS P09104+4109 using the Keck 10-m Telescope. We detect the clear presence of broad…
The European Large Area ISO Survey I: Goals, Definition and Observation
Seb Oliver, the ELAIS consortium
We describe the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). ELAIS was the largest single Open Time project conducted by ISO, mapping an area of 12 square degrees at 15mu with ISO-CAM a…
A vestige low metallicity gas shell surrounding the radio galaxy 0943-242 at z=2.92
L. Binette, J. D. Kurk, M. Villar-Martin +1
Observations are presented showing the doublet CIV 1550 absorption lines superimposed on the CIV emission in the radio galaxy 0943-242. Within the errors, the redshift of the absor…
The large scale distribution of warm ionized gas around nearby radio galaxies with jet-cloud interactions
C. N. Tadhunter, M. Villar-Martin, R. Morganti +2
Deep, narrow-band Halpha observations taken with the TAURUS Tunable Filter (TTF) on the 4.2m WHT telescope are presented for two nearby radio galaxies with strong jet-cloud interac…
