The Milky Way as a distant galaxy: an IFU and panchromatic view

Sergey Khoperskov, Alina Boecker, Nikolay Kacharov +4

Understanding the structure and evolution of galaxies increasingly benefits from placing the Milky Way (MW), the best-studied stellar system, in an external-galaxy context. To anal…

Rediscovering the Milky Way with an orbit superposition approach and APOGEE data V. The disc growth and history of star formation

Bridget Ratcliffe, Sergey Khoperskov, Nathan Lee +8

The Milky Way's (MW's) star formation history (SFH) offers insight into the chronology of its assembly and the mechanisms driving its structural development. In this study, we pres…

Rediscovering the Milky Way with orbit superposition approach and APOGEE data III. Panoramic view of the bulge

Sergey Khoperskov, Paola Di Matteo, Matthias Steinmetz +9

The innermost parts of the Milky Way (MW) are very difficult to observe due to the high extinction along the line of sight, especially close to the disc mid-plane. However, this re…

Rediscovering the Milky Way with orbit superposition approach and APOGEE data II. Chrono-chemo-kinematics of the disc

Sergey Khoperskov, Matthias Steinmetz, Misha Haywood +9

The stellar disc is the dominant luminous component of the Milky Way (MW). Although our understanding of its structure is rapidly expanding due to advances in large-scale stellar s…

Rediscovering the Milky Way with orbit superposition approach and APOGEE data I. Method validation

Sergey Khoperskov, Glenn van de Ven, Matthias Steinmetz +9

We introduce a novel orbit superposition method designed to reconstruct the stellar density structure, kinematics, and chemical abundance distribution of the entire Milky Way by le…

The Blue Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (BlueMUSE) on the VLT: science drivers and overview of instrument design

Johan Richard, Rémi Giroud, Florence Laurent +47

BlueMUSE is a blue-optimised, medium spectral resolution, panoramic integral field spectrograph under development for the Very Large Telescope (VLT). With an optimised transmission…

Recovery of the low- and high-mass end slopes of the IMF in massive early-type galaxies using detailed elemental abundances

Mark den Brok, Davor Krajnović, Eric Emsellem +3

Star formation in the early Universe has left its imprint on the chemistry of observable stars in galaxies. We derive elemental abundances and the slope of the low-mass end of the…

The MUSE-Faint survey. IV. Dissecting Leo T, a gas-rich relic with recent star formation

Daniel Vaz, Jarle Brinchmann, Sebastiaan L. Zoutendijk +6

Leo T () is both the faintest and the least massive galaxy known to contain neutral gas and to display signs of recent star formation. We analyse photometry and stellar…

New criteria for the selection of galaxy close pairs from cosmological simulations: evolution of the major and minor merger fraction in MUSE deep fields

E. Ventou, T. Contini, N. Bouché +8

It is still a challenge to assess the merger fraction of galaxies at different cosmic epochs in order to probe the evolution of their mass assembly. Using the Illustris cosmologica…

MusE GAs FLOw and Wind (MEGAFLOW) I: First MUSE results on background quasars

Ilane Schroetter, Nicolas Bouché, Martin Wendt +13

The physical properties of galactic winds are one of the keys to understand galaxy formation and evolution. These properties can be constrained thanks to background quasar lines of…

Probing unexplored territories with MUSE: a second generation instrument for the VLT

R. Bacon, S. Bauer, P. Boehm +57

The Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) is a second-generation VLT panoramic integral-field spectrograph under preliminary design study. MUSE has a field of 1x1 arcmin**2 samp…
