The X-shooter GRB afterglow legacy sample (XS-GRB)

J. Selsing, D. Malesani, P. Goldoni +53

In this work we present spectra of all -ray burst (GRB) afterglows that have been promptly observed with the X-shooter spectrograph until 31-03-2017. In total, we obtained spect…

A gravitational-wave standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant

B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1308

The detection of GW170817 in both gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves heralds the age of gravitational-wave multi-messenger astronomy. On 17 August 2017 the Advanced LIGO…

The COSMOS2015 Catalog: Exploring the 1<z<6 Universe with half a million galaxies

C. Laigle, H. J. McCracken, O. Ilbert +34

We present the COSMOS2015 catalog which contains precise photometric redshifts and stellar masses for more than half a million objects over the 2deg COSMOS field. Including n…

Discovery of bright z ~ 7 galaxies in the UltraVISTA survey

R. A. A. Bowler, J. S. Dunlop, R. J. McLure +10

We have exploited the new, deep, near-infrared UltraVISTA imaging of the COSMOS field, in tandem with deep optical and mid-infrared imaging, to conduct a new search for luminous ga…

GRB091127/SN2009nz and the VLT/X-shooter spectroscopy of its host galaxy: probing the faint end of the mass-metallicity relation

S. D. Vergani, H. Flores, S. Covino +36

We perform a detailed study of the gamma-ray burst GRB091127/SN2009nz host galaxy at z=0.490 using the VLT/X-shooter spectrograph in slit and integral-field unit (IFU). From the an…
