GULP II: Hierarchical Distribution and Evolution of Young Stellar Structures in NGC 4449

Beena Meena, Elena Sabbi, Peter Zeidler +15

We investigate the hierarchical distribution and evolution of young stellar structures in the dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 4449 using data from the GULP survey. By analyzing the spat…

The Halos and Environments of Nearby Galaxies (HERON) Survey IV: Complexity in the boxy galaxies NGC 720 and NGC 2768

Andreas J. Koch-Hansen, Anna Pasquali, R. Michael Rich +2

The shapes of galaxies, in particular their outer regions, are important guideposts to their formation and evolution. Here we report on the discovery of strongly box-shaped morphol…

Radial constraints on the Initial Mass Function from TiO features and Wing-Ford band in Early-type Galaxies

F. La Barbera, A. Vazdekis, I. Ferreras +5

At present, the main challenge to the interpretation of variations in gravity-sensitive line strengths as driven by a non-universal initial mass function (IMF), lies in understandi…

CALIFA: a diameter-selected sample for an integral field spectroscopy galaxy survey

C. J. Walcher, L. Wisotzki, S. Bekeraité +48

We describe and discuss the selection procedure and statistical properties of the galaxy sample used by the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area Survey (CALIFA), a public legacy s…

A study of the ionized gas in Stephan's Quintet from integral field spectroscopy observations

M. Rodriguez-Baras, F. F. Rosales-Ortega, A. I. Diaz +2

The Stephan's Quintet (SQ) is a famous interacting compact group of galaxies in an important stage of dynamical evolution, but surprisingly very few spectroscopic studies are found…

The ionized gas in the CALIFA early-type galaxies I. Mapping two representative cases: NGC 6762 and NGC 5966

C. Kehrig, A. Monreal-Ibero, P. Papaderos +18

As part of the CALIFA survey, we conducted a thorough 2D analysis of the ionized gas in two E/S0 galaxies, NGC6762 and NGC5966, aiming to shed light on the nature of their warm ion…
