A characteristic oxygen abundance gradient in galaxy disks unveiled with CALIFA

S. F. Sanchez, F. F. Rosales-Ortega, J. Iglesias-Paramo +35

We present the largest and most homogeneous catalog of HII regions and associations compiled so far. The catalog comprises more than 7000 ionized regions, extracted from 306 galaxi…

The effects of spatial resolution on Integral Field Spectrograph surveys at different redshifts. The CALIFA perspective

D. Mast, F. F. Rosales-Ortega, S. F. Sanchez +27

Over the past decade, 3D optical spectroscopy has become the preferred tool for understanding the properties of galaxies and is now increasingly used to carry out galaxy surveys. L…

The star formation history of CALIFA galaxies: Radial structures

R. M. González Delgado, E. Pérez, R. Cid Fernandes +24

We study the radial structure of the stellar mass surface density () and stellar population age as a function of the total stellar mass and morphology for a sample of 107 galaxi…

The nature of LINER galaxies: Ubiquitous hot old stars and rare accreting black holes

R. Singh, G. van de Ven, K. Jahnke +19

Galaxies, which often contain ionised gas, sometimes also exhibit a so-called low-ionisation nuclear emission line region (LINER). For 30 years this was attributed to a central mas…

The O3N2 and N2 abundance indicators revisited: improved calibrations based on CALIFA and Te-based literature data

R. A. Marino, F. F. Rosales-Ortega, S. F. Sánchez +31

The use of IFS is since recently allowing to measure the emission line fluxes of an increasingly large number of star-forming galaxies both locally and at high redshift. The main g…

Nebular emission and the Lyman continuum photon escape fraction in CALIFA early-type galaxies

P. Papaderos, J. M. Gomes, J. M. Vilchez +21

We use deep integral field spectroscopy data from the CALIFA survey to study the warm interstellar medium (WIM) of 32 nearby early-type galaxies (ETGs). We propose a tentative subd…

The Mass-Metallicity relation explored with CALIFA: I. Is there a dependence on the star formation rate?

S. F. Sanchez, F. F. Rosales-Ortega, B. Jungwiert +40

We present the results on the study of the global and local M-Z relation based on the first data available from the CALIFA survey (150 galaxies). This survey provides integral fiel…
