INSPIRE: INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics -- VII. The local environment of ultra-compact massive galaxies

Diana Scognamiglio, Chiara Spiniello, Mario Radovich +15

Relic galaxies, the oldest ultra-compact massive galaxies (UCMGs), contain almost exclusively "pristine" stars formed during an intense star formation (SF) burst at high redshift.…

Simulating intermediate black hole mass measurements for a sample of galaxies with nuclear star clusters using ELT/HARMONI high spatial resolution integral-field stellar kinematics

Dieu D. Nguyen, Michele Cappellari, Hai N. Ngo +8

Understanding the demographics of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs, M) in low-mass galaxies is key to constraining black hole seed format…

Asymmetric drift in MaNGA: Mass and radially-dependent stratification rates in galaxy disks

Matthew A. Bershady, Kyle B. Westfall, Shravan Shetty +5

We measure the age-velocity relationship from the lag between ionized gas and stellar tangential speeds in ~500 nearby disk galaxies from MaNGA in SDSS-IV. Selected galaxies are ki…

INSPIRE: INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics VI -- The low-mass end slope of the stellar Initial Mass Function and chemical composition

Michalina Maksymowicz-Maciata, Chiara Spiniello, Ignacio Martín-Navarro +9

The INSPIRE project has built the largest sample of ultra-compact massive galaxies (UCMGs) at 0.1<z<0.4 and obtained their star formation histories (SFHs). Due to their preserved v…

The stellar Fundamental Metallicity Relation: the correlation between stellar mass, star-formation rate and stellar metallicity

Tobias J. Looser, Francesco D'Eugenio, Joanna M. Piotrowska +5

We present observational evidence for a stellar Fundamental Metallicity Relation (FMR), a smooth relation between stellar mass, star-formation rate (SFR) and the light-weighted ste…
