A Spectro-photometric Search for Galaxy Clusters in SDSS

Joo H. Yoon, Kevin Schawinski, Yun-Kyeong Sheen +2

Recent large-scale galaxy spectroscopic surveys, such as the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), enable us to execute a systematic, relatively-unbiased search for galaxy clusters. Suc…

Recent star formation in high-redshift early-type galaxies: insights from the rest-frame UV

S. Kaviraj, S. K. Yi, E. Gawiser +4

We combine deep UBVRIzJK photometry from the MUSYC survey with redshifts from the COMBO-17 survey to study the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) properties of 674 high-redshift (0.5<z<1)…

Observational evidence for AGN feedback in early-type galaxies

Kevin Schawinski, Daniel Thomas, Marc Sarzi +5

A major amendment in recent models of hierarchical galaxy formation is the inclusion of so-called AGN feedback. The energy input from an active central massive black hole is invoke…

The UV colours of high-redshift early-type galaxies: evidence for recent star formation and stellar mass assembly over the last 8 billion years

S. Kaviraj, S. Khochfar, K. Schawinski +7

We combine deep UBVRIzJK photometry from the Multiwavelength Survey by Yale-Chile (MUSYC) with redshifts from the COMBO-17 survey to perform a large-scale study of the rest-frame u…

A binary model for the UV-upturn of elliptical galaxies (MNRAS version)

Z. Han, Ph. Podsiadlowski, A. E. Lynas-Gray

The discovery of a flux excess in the far-ultraviolet (UV) spectrum of elliptical galaxies was a major surprise in 1969. While it is now clear that this UV excess is caused by an o…

The Look-back Time Evolution of Far-Ultraviolet Flux from the Brightest Cluster Elliptical Galaxies at z < 0.2

Chang H. Ree, Young-Wook Lee, Sukyoung K. Yi +28

We present the GALEX UV photometry of the elliptical galaxies in Abell clusters at moderate redshifts (z < 0.2) for the study of the look-back time evolution of the UV upturn pheno…
