Interpretations of galaxy spectra at high redshift. \ The H_gamma/H_beta excess

M. Contini

Spectra from the cosmic dawn obtained with JWST/NIRSpec (James Webb Space Telescope near-infrared spectroscopy) in the SMACS0723 Early Release Observations are now available. Analy…

Analysis of metal-poor galaxy spectra in the redshift range 0.00574-0.05368

Marcella Contini

We present an analysis of the metal-poor galaxy spectra in the redshift range 0.00574z0.05368 which were reported by Nakajima et al (2022) in their EMPG (extreme metal…

Physical Conditions and Extension of the Coronal Line Region in IC 5063

M. A. Fonseca-Faria, A. Rodríguez-Ardila, M. Contini +2

We study the ionised and highly ionised gas phases in the Seyfert~2 galaxy IC~5063 by means of VLT/MUSE integral field spectroscopy. Our analysis allowed us to detect a high-ionisa…

Element abundances in metal poor local star-forming galaxies constrained by the weak spectral lines

Marcella Contini

We have collected from different surveys some significant spectroscopic data observed from star-forming galaxies in the local Universe. The objects showing a relatively rich spectr…

The ionised gas outflow in the Circinus galaxy: kinematics and physical conditions

M. A. Fonseca-Faria, A. Rodríguez-Ardila, M. Contini +1

We employ MUSE/VLT data to study the ionised and highly ionised gas phases of the feedback in Circinus, the closest Seyfert 2 galaxy to us. The analysis of the nebular emission all…

Chemical abundances of Seyfert 2 AGNs IV. Composite models calculated by photoionization + shocks

O. L. Dors, M. Contini, R. A. Riffel +4

We build detailed composite models of photoionization and shock ionization based on the SUMA code to reproduce emission lines emitted from the Narrow Line Regions (NLR) of Seyfert…
