On the nature of the extragalactic number counts in the K-band
G. Barro, J. Gallego, P. G. Pérez-González +10
We investigate the causes of the different shape of the -band number counts when compared to other bands, analyzing in detail the presence of a change in the slope around $K\sim…
Bulges of disk galaxies at intermediate redshifts. I. Samples with and without bulges in the Groth Strip Survey
L. Dominguez-Palmero, M. Balcells, P. Erwin +4
We aim to define a sample of intermediate-z disk galaxies harbouring central bulges, and a complementary sample of disk galaxies without measurable bulges. We intend to provide col…
Globular cluster systems of six shell galaxies
G. Sikkema, R. F. Peletier, D. Carter +2
Shells in Elliptical Galaxies are faint, sharp-edged features, believed to provide evidence of a recent ( years ago) merger event. We analyse the Globular…
GOYA Survey: U and B Number Counts in the Groth-Westphal Strip
M. C. Eliche-Moral, M. Balcells, M. Prieto +3
We present U and B galaxy differential number counts from a field of ~900 arcmin^2, based on GOYA Survey imaging of the HST Groth-Westphal strip. Source detection efficiency correc…
Galactic Bulges from HST NICMOS Observations: Global Scaling Relations
M. Balcells, A. W. Graham, R. F. Peletier
We investigate bulge and disk scaling relations using a volume-corrected sample of early- to intermediate-type disk galaxies in which, importantly, the biasing flux from additional…
The Central Mass Distribution in Dwarf and Low Surface Brightness Galaxies
R. A. Swaters, B. F. Madore, F. C. van den Bosch +1
We present Halpha rotation curves for a sample of 15 dwarf and LSB galaxies. From these, we derive limits on the slopes of the central mass distributions. Assuming the density dist…
