Can photoevaporation open gaps in protoplanetary discs?
Michael L. Weber, Barbara Ercolano, Giovanni Picogna
We investigate whether photoevaporation alone can open and sustain gaps in protoplanetary discs by coupling the evolving disc structure with the photoevaporative flow in two dimens…
Archaeological investigation of galaxies' evolutionary history in the cosmic middle ages
Anna R. Gallazzi, Stefano Zibetti, Mark Sargent +14
The cosmic Middle Ages, spanning the last 8-10 Gyr of the Universe, is a critical period in which massive early-formed systems coexist with global star formation quenching in less…
The High-Mass End of the Black Hole Mass Function: Mass Estimates in Brightest Cluster Galaxies
E. Dalla Bonta', L. Ferrarese, E. M. Corsini +5
We present Hubble Space Telescope imaging and spectroscopic observations of three Brightest Cluster Galaxies, Abell 1836-BCG, Abell 2052-BCG, and Abell 3565-BCG, obtained with the…
An improved measurement of the flux distribution of the Ly-alpha forest in QSO absorption spectra: the effect of continuum fitting, metal contamination and noise properties
T. -S. Kim, J. S. Bolton, M. Viel +2
We have performed an extensive Voigt profile analysis of the neutral hydrogen (HI) and metal absorption present in a sample of 18 high resolution, high signal-to-noise QSO spectra…
The Galactic Halo density distribution from photometric survey data: results of a pilot study
M. Cignoni, V. Ripepi, M. Marconi +4
Our goal is to recover the Galactic Halo spatial density by means of field stars. To this aim, we apply a new technique to the Capodimonte Deep Field (OACDF, Alcala' et al. 2004),…
The nuclear regions of NGC 7582 from [NeII] spectroscopy at 12.8 microns - an estimate of the black hole mass
M. Wold, M. Lacy, H. U. Kaeufl +1
We present a high-resolution (R~16,000) spectrum and a narrow-band image centered on the [NeII]12.8 micron line of the central kpc region of the starburst/Seyfert2 galaxy NGC 7582.…
