The cosmic evolution of oxygen and nitrogen abundances in star-forming galaxies over the past 10 Gyrs
E. Perez-Montero, T. Contini, F. Lamareille +35
The chemical evolution of galaxies on a cosmological timescale is still a matter of debate despite the increasing number of available data provided by spectroscopic surveys of star…
Environmental effects in the interaction and merging of galaxies in zCOSMOS survey
P. Kampczyk, S. J. Lilly, the zCOSMOS Collaboration
The zCOSMOS-bright 10k spectroscopic sample reveals a strong environmental dependence of close kinematic galaxy pair fractions in the redshift range 0.2 < z < 1. The fraction of cl…
Systematic variation of the stellar Initial Mass Function with velocity dispersion in early-type galaxies
I. Ferreras, F. La Barbera, R. R. de Carvalho +4
An essential component of galaxy formation theory is the stellar initial mass function (IMF), that describes the parent distribution of stellar mass in star forming regions. We pre…
MIUSCAT: extended MILES spectral coverage. II. Constraints from optical photometry
E. Ricciardelli, A. Vazdekis, A. J. Cenarro +1
In the present work we show a comprehensive comparison of our new stellar population synthesis MIUSCAT models with photometric data of globular clusters and early-type galaxies. Th…
MIUSCAT: extended MILES spectral coverage. I. Stellar populations synthesis models
A. Vazdekis, E. Ricciardelli, A. J. Cenarro +3
We extend the spectral range of our stellar population synthesis models based on the MILES and CaT empirical stellar spectral libraries. For this purpose we combine these two libra…
Young ages and other intriguing properties of massive compact galaxies in the Local Universe
Anna Ferré-Mateu, Alexandre Vazdekis, Ignacio Trujillo +3
We characterize the kinematics, morphology, stellar populations and star formation histories of a sample of massive compact galaxies in the nearby Universe, which might provide a c…
The dominant role of mergers in the size evolution of massive early-type galaxies since z ~ 1
C. López-Sanjuan, O. Le Fèvre, O. Ilbert +60
In this paper we measure the merger fraction and rate, both minor and major, of massive early-type galaxies (M_star >= 10^11 M_Sun) in the COSMOS field, and study their role in mas…
A journey from the outskirts to the cores of groups I: Color- and mass-segregation in 20K-zCOSMOS groups
V. Presotto, A. Iovino, M. Scodeggio +49
Using the group catalog obtained from zCOSMOS spectroscopic data and the complementary photometric data from the COSMOS survey, we explore segregation effects occurring in groups o…
