The evolution of the number density of compact galaxies

B. M. Poggianti, A. Moretti, R. Calvi +4

We compare the number density of compact (small size) massive galaxies at low and high redshift using our Padova Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue (PM2GC) at z=0.03-0.11 and th…

The evolution of galaxy sizes

Bianca M. Poggianti, Rosa Calvi, Daniele Bindoni +10

We present a study of galaxy sizes in the local Universe as a function of galaxy environment, comparing clusters and the general field. Galaxies with radii and masses comparable to…

Superdense galaxies and the mass-size relation at low redshift

Bianca Poggianti, Rosa Calvi, Daniele Bindoni +10

We search for massive and compact galaxies (superdense galaxies, hereafter SDGs) at z=0.03-0.11 in the Padova-Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue, a spectroscopically complete sa…

The red-sequence of 72 WINGS local galaxy clusters

T. Valentinuzzi, B. M. Poggianti, G. Fasano +14

We study the color-magnitude red sequence and blue fraction of 72 X-ray selected galaxy clusters at z=0.04-0.07 from the WINGS survey, searching for correlations between the charac…

Morphology of galaxies in the WINGS clusters

G. Fasano, E. Vanzella, A. Dressler +12

We present the morphological catalog of galaxies in nearby clusters of the WINGS survey (Fasano et al. 2006). The catalog contains a total number of 39923 galaxies, for which we pr…

The evolution of early-type galaxies in clusters from z~ 0.8 to z~ 0: the ellipticity distribution and the morphological mix

Benedetta Vulcani, Bianca M. Poggianti, Alan Dressler +10

We present the ellipticity distribution and its evolution for early-type galaxies in clusters from z~0.8 to z~0, based on the WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey (WINGS)(0.04<z…
