Highly ionized gas on galaxy scales: mapping the interacting Seyfert galaxy LEDA 135736
J. Gerssen, D. J. Wilman, L. Christensen +2
We have used the VIMOS IFU to map the properties of the Seyfert 1.9 galaxy LEDA 135736. These maps reveal a number of interesting features including: an Extended Narrow Line Region…
Measurements of CaII absorption, metals, and dust in a sample of z~1 DLAs and subDLAs
Daniel Nestor, Max Pettini, Paul Hewett +2
We present observations of CaII, ZnII, and CrII absorption lines in 16 DLAs and 6 subDLAs at 0.6 < z < 1.3, obtained for the dual purposes of: (i) clarifying the relationship betwe…
Constraints on the star formation histories of galaxies from z~1 to z~0
Yan-Mei Chen, Vivienne Wild, Guinevere Kauffmann +5
We present a new method to estimate the average star formation rate per unit stellar mass (SSFR) of a stacked population of galaxies. We combine the spectra of 600-1000 galaxies wi…
Narrow associated QSO absorbers: clustering, outflows and the line-of-sight proximity effect
Vivienne Wild, Guinevere Kauffmann, Simon White +8
Using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release 3 (SDSS DR3) we investigate how narrow (<700km/s) CIV and MgII quasar absorption line systems are distributed around quasa…
K-band Imaging of strong CaII-absorber host galaxies at z~1
Paul Hewett, Vivienne Wild
We present K-band imaging of fields around 30 strong CaII absorption line systems, at 0.7<z<1.1, three of which are confirmed Damped Lyman-alpha systems. A significant excess of ga…
The star formation rate of CaII and damped Lyman-alpha absorbers at 0.4<z<1.3
Vivienne Wild, Paul Hewett, Max Pettini
[abridged] Using stacked Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectra, we present the detection of [OII]3727,3730 nebular emission from galaxies hosting CaII and MgII absorption line systems.…
