Locations of Peculiar Supernovae as a Diagnostic of Their Origins

Fang Yuan, Chiaki Kobayashi, Brian P. Schmidt +3

We put constraints on the properties of the progenitors of peculiar calcium-rich transients using the distribution of locations within their host galaxies. We confirm that this cla…

The 6dF Galaxy Survey: Stellar Population Trends Across and Through the Fundamental Plane

Christopher M. Springob, Christina Magoulas, Rob Proctor +6

We present results from an analysis of stellar population parameters for 7132 galaxies in the 6dFGS Fundamental Plane (FP) sample. We bin the galaxies along the axes, , ,…

Re-ionizing the Universe without Stars

Michael A. Dopita, Lawrence M. Krauss, Ralph S. Sutherland +2

Recent observations show that the measured rates of star formation in the early universe are insufficient to produce re-ionization, and therefore, another source of ionizing photon…

Chemical Enrichment in the Carbon-enhanced Damped Lyman System

Chiaki Kobayashi, Nozomu Tominaga, Ken'ich Nomoto

We show that the recently observed elemental abundance pattern of the carbon-rich metal-poor Damped Lyman (DLA) system is in excellent agreement with the nucleosynthesis yields…

Early-type galaxies at large galactocentric radii - II. Metallicity gradients, and the [Z/H]--mass, [alpha/Fe]--mass relations

Max Spolaor, Chiaki Kobayashi, Duncan A. Forbes +2

We present the results of a study of stellar population properties at large galactocentric radii of 14 low-mass early-type galaxies in the Fornax and Virgo clusters. We derive radi…

Chemodynamical simulations with variable IMF

Chiaki Kobayashi

Using self-consistent chemodynamical simulations including star formation, supernova feedback, and chemical enrichment, I show the dependence of cosmic star formation and chemical…
