Discovery of a galactic wind in the central region of M100
J. Jiménez-Vicente, A. Castillo-Morales, E. Mediavilla +1
We report the discovery of a galactic wind in the central region of the galaxy M100. This result is based on a careful 2D spectroscopic study performed on observations made with th…
On the metallicity dependence of the 24micron luminosity as a star formation tracer
M. Relano, U. Lisenfeld, P. G. Perez-Gonzalez +2
We investigate the use of the rest-frame 24microns luminosity as an indicator of the star formation rate (SFR) in galaxies with different metallicities by comparing it to the (exti…
Non-circular motion evidences in the circumnuclear region of M100 (NGC 4321)
A. Castillo-Morales, J. Jimenez-Vicente, E. Mediavilla +1
We analyse new integral field spectroscopy of the inner region (central 2.5 kpc) of the spiral galaxy NGC 4321 to study the peculiar kinematics of this region. Fourier analysis of…
Truncated stellar disks in the near infrared. I. Observations
E. Florido, E. Battaner, A. Guijarro +2
We present NIR surface photometry of 11 edge-on galaxies obtained in the course of a long term project aimed at analysing the occurrence and type of the truncation of the outer dis…
